It was always thriving on facebook. Only the self-immolating NYT would position this as our news regulations forcing garbage to the surface.

American and American owned news is the same smears and lies as the fascist propaganda.

All garbage. Fuck facebook. Fuck the US. Canada should just ban this poison.

If only we had allowed Meta to keep extracting value from Canadian journalism, Ballingall wouldn't have spent $250K on PP ads. 🤡🤹
