No one here goes to MoA for the comments section.
and I can't imagine staying there past the Ukraine War either. the whole 'world bank goes woke' is so fucking useless and stupid it's incredible to behold.

"well here's why all these conservative stances are actually leftist"
You're rather underselling the brainworms in MoA's comment section.
Reason why these links area available is due to their reporting on Ukraine's front. They are more useful than NATO aligned media because american reactionaries disapprove of any war led by a liberal president (and vice versa). But yeah, reading them is not to be done without some mental hazard suits.
Kind of a boring news week up ahead I think.
are you trying to kill us all, why must you tempt Fate so
roommates with a pet rooster
historians be like 'this prussian king wrote to his secretary that his hemorrhoids say hello' and say 'they were roommates'
so you appointed armed forces personnel according to the boykissy scale what is this the ottoman empire
Fuck you if you fault me for still finding my way.
People here are already aware of what places like MoA are. We've discussed, litigated, and straight up joked about their brainworms. We've used them in limited capacity nonetheless, because there's a tendency in American wars for the political affiliation of the president to warp coverage entirely. The Iraq and Afghanistan Wars were lauded by conservative and denounced by liberal media. The Syria and Libya Wars were, likewise, lauded by liberals and denounced by conservatives. This sort of partisan hackery means that, sometimes, the other side of the aisle has a vested interest in covering failures of American foreign policy in ways that are closer to the truth. Yet the word closer is doing a lot of heavy lifting here. The right has it's institutional spinsters and is also full of grifters. The same incentives are there for them to add in their editorializing of the facts, to push their agenda. Moreover, the American right wing is truly enamoured with Russia as some sort of conservative meccah, with which they can make common cause against liberals, the jews, the globalists, and, ultimately, China.
These are all things we are perfectly aware of. To a more intimate degree than you do. We are the ones reading these battlefront reports and rolling our eyes when someone says 'actually Germany is deindustrializing because they are extreme left environmentalists'. Which is why you've come across as a asshole liberal who is only interested in bashing leftists. And also because you've cited MoA's post about the Bidens being corrupt something to be shocked at. Of course they are corrupt. Biden is the Reagan of financialization, he's the architect of Delaware as a fiscal paradise. He didn't get where he did for nothing.
yeah their comedy isn't funny anymore i can't believe they would sellout and just report on the news
What's the play here for someone like Hinkle?
i don't really know who exactly jackson hinkle is. i mostly know of patsocks because y'all talk about them. but i assume the simplest explanation here works best: the long term plan is to find a grifter's niche. none of these people believe anything. at least, the successful ones don't. think candace owens, who started as an anti troll activist who then left the left and became an uncle ruckus supremacist of some kind.
now if you were to ask why patsocks exist at all, it's probably because of the 20 year long conservative pickle. simply put, why do they like to complain about globalists? its because of jews, yes. but its more than that. the socioeconomic world that exists today - freedom for markets, freedom for capital flights, freedom to not pay taxes and not have public services - has utterly fucking destroyed the west. rural americans arguably suffered worse on average. yet unlike the left, conservatives can't decry reagan, thatcher, libertarianism and globalization. they have to make it about culture wars. it can't be just that your job was outsourced and your grandparents' union was villified and destroyed. it has to be about the jews bringing brown people to replace the white people.
Not really surprising that german state media would fall in line when it comes to China reporting. The chinese have a history of playing ball with pretty much anyone from Israel to the EU and beyond. If there's even any basis to the article's thesis, it is the rabidly pro-US faction that rules Germany today which is making the main choice in this matter.
why do you think they are punching each other for attention
