    …Analyzed sources from 1981 to 2002…

    Gee, I wonder what could have happened in 1981 that would have heavily skewed power in the US towards corporate interests.

    I wonder if people voted for that to happen or not. Almost like elections have consequences, all the more reason to ignore tankie troll rhetoric and just go vote instead.

          I’m not tucking anything. My comments are being removed hours after I post them. Conversation here is pointless. Have a good day 👍

            Of course they’re being removed, you’re a shameless tankie bot. 1100 comments in a 28 day old account, most of em both sides bullshit.

                  That’s like 3 comments an hour when you factor in 8 hrs for sleeping. I probably get close to that and I’m a real human being with a full time job too.

                  I’m picking up what you are putting down, but ultimately, I don’t care if they are actually a bot or not. I care if other people who are vulnerable to a tankie’s shallow level of “thinking” see those posts go uncontested and just assume that the silence following them is either an agreement, or a lack of an alternative position.

                    I suppose but it’s still a lot. This account is nine months older with 150 fewer comments and I’m on here too damn much. And assuming they don’t have any alts which the .ml’s tend to do to avoid instance bans. I agree with ya about not letting them spew their garbage uncontested though. Too many people too easily influenced.

            You .ml twats have shot your reputation on this platform. Very much earned.

            It was pointless the moment you brought up problems with the way the United States has been as the reason why we shouldn’t try to change it. I’ve just been playing with you ever since. If you had a substantive argument, I would have addressed it.
