CrowdTangle helped researchers and journalists track viral online falsehoods. Its closure in a key election year is dangerous

      Not an accident either, I expect.

      The billionaires are feeling the tides change and they don’t like it.

      It’s extremely telling how the wanks can tell russian and chinese propaganda from miles away but zionists propaganda just blends into the conversations and everyone follows along and then repeats it verbatim. And anyone criticizing it is hamas or… again russian and chinese propaganda sowing division. 🤦‍♂️

      All that “American values” and other shit reveal themselves as long running propaganda piece themselves, since it only seems to apply when it suits them.

      It’s almost like it aligns with their beliefs and they feel proud about the current timeline of funding a genocide because there’s not much pushback at all.

      I mean multiple wars and war crimes on brown people didn’t change their mind, what’s another genocide?
