New Yorker here.
The Post is a New York paper; there are plenty of people with Ukrainian ancestry in the area, not to mention other East European immigrants. That doesn't mean that other Murdoch owned outlets are going to go along with it.
They have a long history of speaking out of both sides of the mouth.
It is a good picture, though
The NY Post has absolutely not been pro-Ukraine by any stretch of the imagination. You can go to their site and quickly verify this.
The comments are an absolute cesspool of Russian and Chinese propaganda bots parroting every talking point.
I'll take your word for it. I see the headlines when I am out and about. I haven't read the paper in years. I'll edit my comment
They have a long history of speaking out of both sides of the mouth.
Both sides of the ass, you mean.
Democrats and Republicans are both sides of the same ass and the people always get stuck in the middle.
Rupert's taken a back seat and given the chair to Lachlan. Maybe the younger one is realizing that he will have to live with the consequences long after his father is gone? Not saying that he's likely appreciably different but his self-interest might lead him to want a world that is stable enough for him to exploit rather than an oven of chaos where his money is worthless.
I'm honestly amazed at how short-sighted most of the uber-wealthy/uber-powerful people are in that regard! If I owned a random mega-corp I would want a world at peace and full of people that have enough disposable income to buy my products... just seems logical.
You'd think, but ecological considerations seem beyond most of them. It didn't used to be so. Carnegie built libraries, Stanford funded a university, etc. These guys just seem to do the equivalent of hookers and blow
I'm pretty convinced that they have a yet-to-be-described by science mental illness (or symptoms of an existing one not yet studied). Their actions are just too misanthropic to make much sense, evolutionarily.
It is 100% a mental illness. Warning. I am not a doctor. I have thought about this for a while.
I see addicts like on Intervention, usually with drugs/alcohol, only want this one thing and will do any and everything they can to get it. Doesn't matter what they sacrifice. They want their vice.
(Side note most of the people in all of these shows, have some sort of emotional trauma they are working through).
My 600lbs life has this huge focus eating and consuming. But the peope need to fix themselves mentally, in order to make it through successfully. They have this desire to get more and more food, their vice.
Hoarders has all these people obsessively collecting things. Don't throw anything away, just in case we need it. These people end up walking over the things they own in order to move around their home. Some can't even sleep in their bed. They just make a spot on the floor They have so many things, but the problem is that it's never enough and they aren't even using the vices they collect.
Billionaires seem to have some of the same problems. Over collecting, singular focus, sacrifice any and everything for their vice. We are just more accepting of people being obsessed with money. Hell we build economies based on being obsessed with money. All of that to say, yes I agree that I think there is mental illness involved.
Unfortunately the wrong son took over, but hopefully he does realise that it’s nicer being a billionaire in a functioning world and society than a climate and war blasted hellscape.
No matter how nice your bunker is it’s still a bunker.
It will be interesting if I begin to hear my local Republican rhetoric be more anti-Russia and anti-Marjorie
The orange mobster looked at his poll numbers and realized most are on Ukraine's side so he flipped. Little Johnson and Murdoch are simply following. Mos Cow Marge didn't get the message yet.
Maybe he’s figured out that the media will be the first under the boot once they aren’t necessary for anything but propaganda.
Did it pass both houses?
Supposed to be up for a Senate vote tomorrow Tuesday.
The Murdochs are just going after the latest threat to GOP leadership and power.
Her being a woman makes it all the more attractive to them to attack.
