Basically "everyone I disagree with is a paid shill"

So does that mean you were paid to make this post?

Anyone who thinks that foreign or business interests wouldn't try to fan the flames of unrest in order to influence the election hasn't paid any attention to previous elections.

It doesn't mean that the reason for the unrest isn't valid. They found a weakness and they're going for it.

I am disgusted with Biden. Punishing his behavior at the general election will result in an even worse situation for the people of Palestine.

Are you prepared to engage in accelerationism?

If being called out on supporting genocide is such a national security risk then maybe biden should stop supporting genocide. Then you get the benefit of removing that as an issue and, you know, not supporting genocide.

That's why I called it a weakness.

I wish I could get paid to post, but unfortunately, I signed a noncompete agreement with George Soros for a role as a paid actor in a false flag mass shooting so now I'm not allowed to be a paid actor in any other conspiracy theories. I'm just opposing genocide pro bono to keep my posting skills sharp so that I can apply once my contract expires.

FTC made noncompetes unenforceable, go find the job you truly love

So do I just send my resume to an embassy, or how does this work? I hope they don't do in-person interviews, because I'm a Sasquatch and don't want to expose my identity, but I do know some lizard people who might help me whip up a disguise if it comes to that. They mostly spend their time hanging around people with paranoid schizophrenia pretending to be normal people, so they'd probably be good references for this job, since it's essentially the same thing.

My biggest fear is that it could be a coping mechanism for us.

The right likes to use every opportunity against us, and while I've seen many instances of them manipuating "cancel culture" on the left, there's still a large number of people that are amnesiac about the Trump years, even if they're themselves being manipulated by the right to follow such things.
