MODERATORS
The three moderate candidates in the race – Jill Stein, Cornel West and Chase Oliver – were barred from participating.
Yeah bruh, you lost all credibility with this russian bullshit. Fuck off.
It's precisely as inaccurate and ethnocentric as American media's discussion of, say, politicians in Africa or Latin America would be. Which is the joke.
Why is "former colony" written like it's a pejorative?
Because the entire article is a parody on how western media usually reports on sub-saharan African states.
Ah, that tracks.
