A “lot” of dudes right now being like “I was not aware that I was making millions of dollars being a Russian stooge.” And not a one has offered to give up the money. So…<\/p>\n

I don’t know when treason became something people casually shrugged off and not something that put people in prison… But I think they should be put in prison. They for sure should not be allowed to keep their YouTube channels, corporate sponsorships, or social media platforms.<\/p>\n

Like, they were accepting money to foment political unrest, and not a one of them was like “Are we the baddies? Maybe this isn’t<\/em> the best idea.” They simply cashed the checks, and now they’re acting like they were “poor widdle babies deceived by the evil country that allowed a racist fascist to ‘win’ the 2016 election.”<\/p>\n

We’re supposed to feel sorry for them because they accepted money to make and spread videos focused on destroying the United States.<\/p>\n

Like “Thank you for the rise of incel culture and all the benefits it has lead to for no one.”<\/p>\n

I don’t know when we slipped over into the bad timeline, but it might have been centuries before any of us were born. So sad.<\/p>\n
