Approximately 6.5 terabytes of data from the interconnected companies Psyclone Media and Political Media in addition to client data such as The Post Millennial, acting as their “face to the political world”. Political Media describes itself as a “right of center new media consulting firm” for political and public relations campaigns and is a co-owner of Psyclone Media and Psyclone Hosting. The companies provide website, email and marketing services, in addition to video production and SEO optimization through their “cooperative partners”.
Psyclone Media and Political Media’s clients have included political action committees (PACs) and Super PACs, congressional candidates and other political organizations including the Tea Party, as well as conservative media figures and outlets such as Parler, Tucker Carlson, and The Washington Times. Their formal campaigns have promoted use of raw milk and disputed the narrative around the 2012 Benghazi attack, in addition to the narratives promoted by their clients through the “Conservative Stack” service, a content management service catering to conservative users.
First they came for the far right websites and I did nothing cause that is exactly who you should target. Good job everybody. Well done!
“this is bidens fault obviously” - jake tapper
I really don’t know why this did not get any coverage in the media.
Because outlets like The Washington Times are on this list. This is going to be a PR nightmare for them.
idk if cult owned far right rag has that much pull (it’s not washington post, owned by bezos)
Fair enough. Similarly outlets can get confusing.
Pretty confident that’s the intention of that name
Yes you do.
Why??
Social media and news is overwhelmingly controlled or otherwise influenced/flooded by the right or those acting on their behalf.
I keep one emergency leave day aside so I can celebrate when Rupert Murdoch finally fucking croaks
Yeah his kids are probably no better, perhaps even worse, but god damn I fucking hate that piece of shit
It’s pretty easy to explain too. Social media and traditional media are all owned by billionaires and they want to push a rightwing agenda because that means less taxes for them and fuck everyone else.
They are also pushing the identity politics, so we are distracted fighting among ourselves instead of uniting against them
I mean it wouldn’t be a problem if people didn’t get angry about minorities having rights.
The reason the rich are pushing right-wing politics is that they know socially conservative people are ready to give the wealthy whatever they want so long as they can tread on the humanity of minorities. So a large part of the problem is there truly are a lot of deplorable people who have some truly abhorrent views and the rich are taking advantage of that. Is the rich taking advantage a problem? Sure, but the bigger problem is that these people with these views exist in the first place and are easily manipulated.
If the rich could get tax cuts from pushing for social rights for minorities they would do that instead, but social liberals are less gullible than the conservatives.
I wish the rich would take advantage of our more virtuous qualities. Like I would love for someone to back me financially to go around compulsively pulling up invasive plants and lobbing pollinator flower bombs into abandoned lots.
Mate, the basic principles of Equality and Fairness of the Leftwing naturally include minorities having the same rights and treatment than everybody else because Equality doesn’t make distinctions on skin color, gender or which kind of people one loves.
The artificial slicing of Equality into “one group at a time ‘Equality’” is exactly the strategy by which the Left was divided, distracted away from the biggest inequality and descrimination of all (that of Wealth) and made to fight each other and be baited by whatever rage-baite du jour served by the far-right populists to their muppets.
Whomever in some Neoliberal Billionaire-Funded Think Tank who came up with that perversion of Equality deserved whatever massive bonus they got for such a brilliant strategy of convincing people that are all being victims of the few, that it’s people like them but of a different ethnicity/gender/sexual-orientation who are their real enemies, not the ones exploiting them at every turn.
You’ve been had and made into a footsoldier in a fabricated war were the working class got divided into “groups” by ethnicity, gender and even sexual-orientation and turned against each other whilst the people doing the most damage and causing the most suffering keep on pillaging to their heart’s contents and, worse, it’s been done via preying on your qualities as a human being who desires a fairer world.
I keep hearing this, and I’ve been ready to fight back against them for decades, but I don’t ever see the revolution.
Unless you count occupy wallstreet, which lasted like 2 weeks, and nobody remembers.
People have been asleep and okay with fascism as long as they have money in their pocket. Now, this breach with ethical behavior in the name of corporate America on the part of so many has gone full circle. In other words, this is what you get when you value money over people.
Its not even about taxes but straight up class warfare. Lately billionaires noticed that they are not as untouchable as they thought they were and now they’re aligned to fix this.
There’s no class war, at least not in a country like the US: for there to be a war the other side would have to be fighting which they’re not, and the billionaires have been into the pillaging stage of their conquest for decades and are just using information control, populism and rage-baiting to make sure the riff-raff remain out of their way.
Things are well beyond the “elites” merely taking an unfairly outsided cut of the growth and well into taking from the rest that which they and their parents accumulated, hence why quality of life for the majority has been going down for a while now and the last two Generations are set to be worse off than their parents.
No, it’s not that it’s controlled. It’s that none of you participate or share this stuff. “They’re owned by X” argument is just an excuse.
You’re reading about it from someone who shared it right now. Derp.
That’s enough I suppose then.
I’ll give you a hint: billionaires don’t buy newspapers, social media and TV channels with shitty-shit Returns On Investment (if at all profitable) to make money from them - what they’re really buying isn’t the business, it’s an audience for “opinion making”.
Where is this from?
Originally from the movie “When A Stranger Calls”.
When A Stranger Calls
Oh come on. You know.
Because they’re shitty little sites no one has ever heard of?
clients have included
Whoop dee do. Yes, I’m sure the scum that were name dropped threw a couple of shillings in the pile.
And what kind of crazy revelations will come of this?! Well, maybe if something actually comes out, you’ll have your story.
I bet there’s some left leaning publications that would appreciate the tip?
In North America, most major mainstream news companies are owned by right-wing or right-leaning corporations. In Canada, I think it’s literally all of them.
I’m aware. But others do still exist and may be looking for a story.
Hacks rarely do to be honest.
Because they have to see if they are in it yet
Ever is this data dump so I can mirror it?
Is KiwiFarms one of them ?
