Yes Citizens United is what you're thinking of. The elites are able to play both sides of the field without being obvious hypocrites. They no longer have to pick a side. Nobody knows that Republican-voting billionaires secretly back loser Democrat candidates who are either incompetent or basically Republicans (Joe Biden is both of these things). You can no longer follow the money.

At the same time, Republican gerrymandering has created large swaths of the country where one party runs virtually uncontested. This leads to candidates who have no interest in winning moderates on either side- the same process that led to Madison Cawthorn and Marjorie Taylor Greene also led to AOC and Ilhan Omar.

Finally, in presidential and senate elections that *are* contested, weird little identity politics groups now seem to play an outsize role. Parties have to appeal to "Suburban white women in Wisconsin making less than $60,000 a year" and "Hispanic men in Miami with college degrees". For the Democrats, this led to John Kerry in 2004, Hillary in 2016, and Biden in 2020. I was a bit of a wildcard because I had the black vote on lock and appealed to many whites as well.

I’m bored, someone come up with the gayest Ukrainian nickname ever. Soldier nicknamed the “Ukranian Seal” for getting 300 confirmed kills trained in guerilla warfare and the top sniper in the entire Ukraine armed forces.

We are currently following up on unconfirmed reports that the "civilian of Ukraine" has already amassed 20 kills of other Ukrainian civilians in its bout of confusion after being given a rifle by the government.

The fact Adam Kinzinger bought the Sam Hyde meme and earned tens of thousands of likes shows you how celebrity-addicted BlueAnon is.

Doesn't matter if the pics of Zelensky strutting around in fatigues were from 2019, or kids hugging each other in Donbass from 2016, they each get thousands and thousands of likes.

Remember the migrant photos of the Mexican mom with her 7 year old in a diaper? The drowned kid in the Rio Grande and how we should open up our borders to millions of people?

Same rhetoric.

The tweets debunking them get 1/10th of the interaction.

As I said ages ago in this thread there is now what I call a "cacophony of disinformation" in this war. In the past decades ago news channels and government sources were the arbiters of information about what happened in a war. Now in an age where the internet is increasingly present it is playing as a role as well. Third-parties on the individual level can say something and that can be amplified 100 times over be it truth or a lie. This makes fake reports and news rampant. I think this is an additional thing that will happen now in wars or conflicts whenever both sides are at a technological level where a significant portion of their populations have access to the internet.

That's funny, the disinformation seems to be flowing mostly from one direction, the same direction most disinformation seems to flow: The Side Western Elites Favour.
