What a brilliant way to put it, “theft from the public domain”. I’m gonna have to remember that one.

I’m not against nuclear power, but could they have concocted a worse set of motivations? Restarting Three Mile Island to power Microsoft’s AI ambitions? Shit reads like something a super villan would cook up.

I’ve also ran into some issues simply accessing youtube through my vpn, but that’s been going on for a while.

Absolutely. So much of the right wing media space is inhabited by, funded by, and glorifies grifters that they’ve created a constant chunk of their audience that is vulnerable to their tactics. Values or policy prescriptions don’t even really need to come into it, if you are a grifter it’s just a smart business decision to start drifting to the right. It opens up those audiences to you because you are “one of them”.

I’m gonna be honest, I was thinking of Dracula flow when I posted this.

Mother fucker could be Dracula for all I care. Still voting for him.
