#he’s never condemned the war and called Putin a hero shortly before the war in Ukraine started

I follow the national news on tiktok (a news source I believe tries its best to not have an opinion in news articles) and it’s funny how, in minutes after posting a video on something, the right wing comes flooding in to call them fake, leftist, divisive, bad, incorrect etc.

Don’t these brainwashed kids have anything better to do? Do homework? Play outside, touch some grass?

#todays news was about how a right wing politician is alleged to have ties with the Kremlin #he’s never condemned the war and called Putin a hero shortly before the war in Ukraine started #he’s (somehow) part of our national parliament #we vote for local parliament in a month or so #he has no real influence or say in local government #and yet these kids come in like ‘hhhh must be election time so of course there’s gotta be fake news!’ #meanwhile 1. he’s always been like this and this shouldn’t come as a surprise #2. are you truly out there defending a country that invaded Ukraine #unprovoked #3. yes we’re gonna see more news on politics because right now everyone’s getting ready to vote #so news about politics is a little more interesting than normal #it’s like getting news about football when there’s a championship #it has more impact #JEEZ
