M.I.A.s political views are slightly unhinged: On one hand, she is supporting free immigration, female empowerment, outspoken against genocide, supported wikileaks and the English Labor Party but then is anti vacc and is endorsing Trump...I cannot make any sense of that.

I really liked her early music from 2005.

    The wikileaks to right winger pipeline is a very clear line that goes through Russian psyops.

    What's the pipeline for your paranoid Russophobia?

    They can't compete with the US economically if you look at GDP, so the most rational way to fight back is with psyops and phishing schemes. Much like the war in Iran has probably caused a bunch of DDOS attacks on different points in our internet infrastructure. I used to work QA for a company making jerky, and while you might not expect it, we were hit with tons of them. It's cheap-ass warfare for its effectiveness.

    I seriously am starting to believe everyone is in it for the money only, they've got ties to trump regime somehow making them money and don't want to fault it while they're ahead. It doesn't make sense other wise.
