That’s pretty unlikely unless he’s doing a big pivot in his branding, he quite literally has said the US should team up with Russia to fight/oppose China.

Carlson’s dissenting line on Ukraine policy has to be understood in light of his obsession with fighting China. As he outlined back in 2019, his dim view of Washington’s Russia strategy came from the fact that he viewed China, not Russia, as “our main enemy,” and that “the United States ought to be in a relationship with Russia aligned against China to the extent that we can.”

He reiterated this point three years later: because “China is the preeminent threat to the United States,” and because it’s impossible “to engage meaningfully simultaneously in Europe and in Asia,” the US focus on Ukraine only “detracts from our attention to China,” while at the same time pushing Moscow “into an alliance of convenience of necessity with the Chinese government.”

Maybe to an extent but I would say a lot of other people are “brainwashed” in a different way, you drop a Canadian super pro China guy into Beijing and they would not stand out as much as if you dropped some super pro US guy there, your conceptiοn of “brainwashing” lies entirely based on being in a vast majority English language site with vast majority North American and European users, there’s a lot more people in the world than only westerners and or english speakers and a lot of them have opinions you wouldn’t agree with and they aren’t any more or less brainwashed than you, you would only see them as more brainwashed because they take heterodox opions in your corner of the internet

I don’t like all the defederation drama even though in many cases they started it, I prefer the reddit approach where I can interact with pretty much everyone, my instance is only defedded with the borderline illegal gross burggit stuff and the openly racist one and I think that’s preferrable to leave the user to block individuals or communities they don’t like other than the heinous stuff, I would rather have my posts reach most people on the site rather than smaller subsections personally.

I wanted people from instances banned from popular instances like world ie grad, hexbear to be able to give their take on it, but I guess the mods couldn’t handle trying to reach the widest audience, won’t be posting similar things there again, especially given the moderation, removed from two comms with the information “rule 1” when one of the comms doesn’t even have a “rule 1”, doesn’t even have the common curtiousy to give their actual reason for taking them down or dm me about it, really immature and petty from my pov

I think it’s an error on their part then because if you click the article the headline still says 62, but over a 1 person error I won’t change the title for the post it is close enough
