Friendly reminder that Russian, Chinese, and other Dictatorships' state media outlets are ecstatic that Krasnov is gutting VOA.
- That's like other drug dealers cheering the biggest drug dealer getting gutted.
So US propaganda will continue to flow
Sometimes a broken clock can be correct.
VOA is a CIA Imperialist propaganda tool, like USAID, and deserves to be removed. But don't take my word for it, read the CIA's own files about it before this administration hides that info as well.
Edit: Downvote all you want. That doesn't change facts. So if you're defending the removal of VOA and USAID you're basically defending American Imperial propganda and the vile tactics of the CIA.
Good luck with those ethical gymnastics.
- think about what it means that it's not far right enough for the far right to want to keep it around
  
  Absolutely. Though I suspect that it's more they want to create their own specific fascist leaning messaging.
- I’m asking genuinely: I understand that VOA is bad, but isn’t any ruling which blocks the mass firings from DOGE and trump a good thing?
  
  Like I said a broken clock is correct twice a day.
  Yea, thwarting DOGE/Muck and Trump feels good, but then end result of them taking down USAID and VOA is actually better for the world and ultimately American citizens.
  No more propaganda. No more easy coverups for the CIA influencing and attempting coups.
- The downvotes always come from those that are unaware they are helping prop up fascism
  
  Agreed. Blue MAGA liberals will never understand they are the guard dogs for fascism because they will never let go of Capitalism.
  Edit: Don't let the truth get you so riled up Blue MAGA. lol
