#BookReview: “How #Tech #Billionaires on the Right Bought the Loudest Voices on the Left”

'Owned: How Tech Billionaires on the Right Bought the Loudest Voices on the Left, examines how new wealth has drawn some formerly progressive journalists. Owned looks at #MattTaibbi and #GlennGreenwald (who was always right wing libertarian with axes to grind that suited the left, as is snowden) once idealistic-sounding, left-leaning voices who shifted right'

I was going to do one last sketch on Ian Smith, but, to be honest, he's just a gymbro science-denier that sells "water treatments" and supplements. 🥱

What's the point of all this?

These grifters are insidious and the far-right is trying to appropriate leftist terminologies and twist them.

They take small grains of truth, the base rhetoric of AnComs and grow genetically modified shitmuffins from them. If you ever doubt this is happening, remember that Nazi is short for National Socialist German Workers' Party.

Watch yourselves out there, keep your heads on a swivel, and don't assume that people are who they say they are.

6/6

This was quite the rabbit hole.

I was watching a video from More Perfect Union about how the US and Puerto Rico itself have created a wealth inequality that is as profoundly unique as it is disturbing.

In a clip from this video, I noticed something called Anarchapulco in the background. So, I paused it and looked it up.
