I’d say they are expressing honest opinions that happen to be useful to Russian state interests

the people producing the content that I’ve seen talk about it so far have said there was no editorial line at all, and they individually all had full control of what they produced. the company’s only creative contributions were when it made thumbnails and posted clips

i where did I say I live in Pennsylvania? you are making leaps of logic.

by your definition of the word, if i lived in iowa, my ethnicity would iowan,

this is a strawman

you’re ascribing me an ethnicity that i don’t identify with

that never happened. your gas lighting and ethnocidal monologues are disgusting.

i’m talking about the Pennsylvanian state in America,

i’m not. i’m pennsylvanian in that there is a particular culture and shared identity that i would continue to use to identify even in the absence of the state. it’s an ethnicity whether you like it or not. you can’t gatekeep the existence of ethnicities, and you can’t gatekeep an ethnicity that you aren’t even part of.

. It doesn’t take more than a few seconds of googling to realize you’re just trolling.

your accusation of bad faith is, itself bad faith.

whiteness is racism. it’s not an ethnicity.

I am ethnically a pennsylvanian as you (and I, and every other source I’ve found) have defined ethnicity. I don’t understand why you don’t want my ethnicity to exist but kindly refrain from trying to deny it out loud like a fucking bigot.

I’m ethnically pennsylvanian, and you can’t define my ethnicity out of existence.

there is family lore that I have a Dakota great grandma but obviously she would have had to move east and that’s only 20th century anyway

regardless, though, I am pennsylvanian

it’s also culture. my family has been here longer than the USA. we predate the revolution by generations. I’m Pennsylvanian.

this is a nonsequitur.

ethnicity isn’t genetics

it’s my ethnicity. I would know

you’re wrong and condescending: not a good combination.
