Western media would jump all over Macron for doing this and likely cause dissension in Brussels.

If Macron did this, then Paris’s leadership role of the EU would be in question and Berlin would challenge Macron and oust the French-domaniance that has occurred since Merkel left.

From the Russian perspective it’d be great if western outlets carried this story and there is no way that DW and Speigel wouldn’t carry it

All in all, it is silly angle to drive a disinformation campaign and at best bnn.network has jumped the gun allowing for a counter-narrative to form.

bnn.network is not reputable.

Macron isn’t going to BRICS.

This bnn.network are running off the BNN Bloomberg a Canadian media group but the website is different.

Mods are basically the slave labour that make Reddit profitable and allows for its existence.

The exploit is taking superuser’s hobby or specialty and getting them to work 24/7 in an permanent unpaid internship position that doesn’t run counter to labour laws.

No one wants to upset that tenuous (and likely quasi-illegal) system of exploitation by empowering the mods to know that they can make changes by organising or going on strike.

Neither Reddit executives nor the protesting app developers and other API data users have the actual interests of reddit superusers at heart.

My goal is to hurt Reddit’s IPO to prevent a capitalisation on the platforms recent string of real world impacts, such as the Game Stop short squeeze and the intelligence leak that happened on a Discord server.

I don’t care if Reddit’s CEO caves in, just so long as Reddit doesn’t get the large influx of capital to prevent the corporation from achieving any larger impact like Twitter and Facebook did in their respective times.

The secondary marketplace to sell your Reddit accounts to bot farmers is very active, accounts are being bought at upwards of $200.

The social bots work just fine inside reddit’s Infrastructure without 3rd party apps and/or API data.

Reddit is going to be just another Twitter for the 2024 US election, where the conversation is managed and directed by bots, but pro-democracy based. When that becomes known Wall Street will act accordingly and Reddit won’t be worth much…

The year is 2023.

What the CIA did or didn’t do 50 to 70 years ago is irrelevant.

What is relevant is that Mexico and the cartels are supported by the Kremlin, and there are more FSB and paramilitary (Wagner, etc) operatives in Mexico than in any other nation besides Ukraine.

The problem with the CIA is that they want everyone to think they are the best at clandestine operations and espionage when the truth is that the KGB was always happy to play the “Ivan” and privately know they were and are the best intelligence service in the world.

Mexico’s AMLO is owned by Putin and if I had to be owned by either the modern day CIA or FSB, I’d go with the overeducated do-gooders at Langley every single time.
