    Probably because they’re cultivating a readership of rich liberals who actually have the money to donate and pay. The media cannot be representative of popular sentiments under a capitalist system, and it only becomes worse with increasing wealth inequality. Economics bend the news to be a propaganda arm of wealthy interests more than a way to provide accurate news. Those with money pay to print what they want to hear and want other people to hear. The world is only built for those with power.

      I think it’s more that the owner is an oligarch than it is the readers wanting this stuff. The Times readership likes Mamdani a lot more than the paper does.

      They can’t have my email, and they won’t accept a pic of my ballsack. These registration forms are so prejudiced with what is acceptable and what isn’t.

      Basically they did it because they are willing participants in right wing ratfucking of progressives.

      Would you say the Euro is AN European thing, or A European thing?

      If you’re going to be pedantic, be correct, or be prepared for backlash.
