Babe wake up, new red scare just dropped
post
I don’t see Hexbear on that list. We are officially right wing! Woooo.
Why would the US government wants to persecute the most renowned fedposters on Lemmy?
We are Russian and Qatar funded, not CCP
Huh.... so they don't care about the DSA?
Hmmmmm 
FAIR.org with a takedown of the original NYT article about Singham from two years ago
Rubio was mad about it:
So it should come as no surprise that the piece has led to a call for a federal investigation into those Singham-funded nonprofits. Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) sent a letter to the Justice Department citing the Times article and arguing that the groups, including the antiwar organization Code Pink and the socialist think tank Tricontinental, “have been receiving direction from the CCP [Chinese Communist Party].” Rubio concluded, “The CCP is our greatest adversary, and we cannot allow it to abuse our open system to promote its malign influence any longer.”
Sigh:
If you think China is evil and Communists are the devil—as you might, if you read US corporate news media (FAIR.org, 5/15/20, 4/8/21)—this sounds like important reporting on a dangerous man. The trouble is, there’s nothing illegal about any of this. All the Times succeeds in proving in this article is that Singham puts considerable money, amassed by selling a software company, toward causes that promote positive views of China and are critical of hawkish anti-China foreign policy, which is his right as an US citizen. If you were to replace “China” in this tale with “Ukraine,” it’s hard to imagine the Times assigning a single reporter to the story, let alone putting it on the front page.
Hey, maybe a ghoulish Republican openly frothing about China hopefully results in the libs disentangling themselves from Sinophobic fearmongering? Big cope i know but
The odds are much better that they simply agree with him with the whole 'broken clock right twice a day' shtick
That's why they have the NYT write these ridiculous reports. This way the libs can eat the whole thing up, just like the Pompeo story about the "debt trap" in Sri Lanka.
Liberals will be wearing swastika armbands and sieg-heiling before they even think about dropping the China bullshit
Same congress person meeting with CIA on the same day.

Same congress person on Fox News discussing the documents filed.
They really made the CIA building look /that/ comically evil, huh?
Damn, even more reason to like Code Pink
i think they confronted (verbally
) trumpo in a restaurant a week ago, so now getting got for ruining his dinner
We need a vanguard party for Code Pink and Palestine Action
He was so mad about that he ranted to the press pool one day about how "nasty" they were
'Fun' fact: NYT red scare bs reporting two years ago about the same person resulted in the Indian Government using equivalent laws (and some worse ones) against a left-wing news org.
shocking news: fascist government will target anyone even vaguely anti-fascist
Fuck. Just as the PSL started picking up steam.
ain't gonna stop us
Highest vote they've ever gotten last presidential election, 168k. Not bad considering they weren't on the ballot in 11 states
So how long until the feds mandate and enforce greeting in the equivalent of Heil Hitler?
We need a new Wolfenstein game where the big bad is Joseph McCarthy instead of Hitler.
Public Awareness = risk to defense industry profits = "national security risk".
Must do genocide to make line go up or you're a TERRORIST!
I'm know they do but it is a strictly internal discussion.
Sorry for missing this american lore bit, but who is Neville Singham?
former Black Panther member of the League of Revolutionary Black Workers in Detroit who got rich as fuck in tech and gave money to help start the People's Forum
The good capitalist??
many some such cases 
I dunno but once again I clearly am not getting my paychecks from whoever is supposed to be paying me to be a evil commie
comrades doing it right, then.
