  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

”In an unsealed indictment, the DOJ alleges that employees of state-owned RT contracted for and oversaw the dissemination of Kremlin talking points by popular right-wing influencers, including Benny Johnson and Tim Pool.

The more complicated the “October Surprise” story/narrative is, the earlier it needs to be released, early September though?

Though if someone dismisses this story as just an October Surprise by suggesting that the timing is “suspicious” they’ll have to explain now the FBI had to wait until “stuff got done”, before seeking indictments, is somehow “timing” a story.

Johnson, Pool, Rubin, and Southern did not immediately respond to requests for comment; none are accused of wrongdoing.


Well that was a bit misleading.

When the left moved hardcore left that exposed a lot of lefties in the middle who didn't shift. Now those lefties are right-wing, apparently. That seems to be Tenet Media. As a right-wing conservative, I only occasionally watch Dave Rubin.

It will be interesting to see how this plays out.

what i learned about USA politics, is that anything the left don't likes can be labeled by them as russian propaganda or far right.
Then you should learn some more about American politics. "The left" hasn't labeled things as "Russian propaganda" in a while. This thread is about online media people doing paid work for the Russian government.

What does it say that the Russians felt the best way to get their propaganda to Americans is through the right wing media sphere?
