Russia Asks Elon Musk for Help Crushing Dissent
-
It looks like Elon Musk’s takeover of the federal government could put people’s lives at risk across the world.
USAID provided, among other things, funding for groups advocating for human rights and democratic reforms in states mired by autocratic regimes, as a form of U.S. soft power in places such as Russia. When Musk gutted the agency earlier this month, he baselessly claimed that USAID was “laundering” taxpayer funds into far-left sources.
Now Russia wants to know exactly where the money was going. Vyacheslav Volodin, speaker of the Russian State Duma, asked the U.S. Tuesday for a list of individuals and opposition groups in Russia who received money from USAID.

Ohhhhh, that's why the .ml tankies have been cheering on the dismantling of USAID. As usual, just more Russian propaganda that they are all too happy to push

Everyone knows it’ll happen and everyone is ok with it.

I knew that was what this was all about. Fucking traitors.

In a world where evil is this fucking obvious you’d think propoganda would struggle to work properly, and yet…
Like, we can’t even satirize conservatives properly because they keep doing shit that’s way worse super publicly and without any shame.

Rightttttt, care to explain why something like this gets to remain up on .ml despite numerous downvotes then? Guaranteed if this comic was justly criticizing Russia, it would have been removed quickly.

Projecting my boner? I don’t think that word means what you think it means.

Well it's the mod that post it and we all know in ML, never question the emperor.

Dont forget that USAID played a role in dismantling Apartheid South Africa, which Musk has a personal grudge against.
