    Yeah, a hypocrisy between Russian influence campaigns and Israeli influence campaigns. AIPAC gives heavily to both Republicans and Democrats, the title and text don’t mention political parties, and the picture is of an empty AIPAC stage, with nothing to indicate party affiliation. If you see an anti-Democrat bias in this meme, you’re adding it.

    (And before anyone accuses me of being pro-Russia, I think the accusations against RT are credible and serious. I just think it’s insane that we’ve institutionalized foriegn interference in our elections through Super PACs for our, “allies.”)

      I mentioned no party affiliation. So you’re the one assuming anti-democratic. I’m pointing out there is no hypocrisy on this issue amongst the people I know.

      And my second statement is directed at OP and his continued campaigning for the fanta menence.

        It’s so crazy that you think anyone of us…

        I wonder who you meant by, “us?”

        But of course you will ignore the fact one party has spoken out against citizens united and one party has installed supreme court justices that will keep bribery legal.

        Oh, that’s who you meant by, “us.”

        You clearly interpreted this as a being anti-Democrat, or at least not sufficiently pro-Democrat. You added a partisan lense to a criticism of American politics, not the OP. OP certainly feels that way based on his account history, but it’s not in the meme.
