I swear that Fox News, Ben Shapiro and other chud mouthpieces crying about "the far-left celebrating murder" is doing more for us than we ever could lmao.

I wonder if Chuds will start realising they have more materially in common with the far-left than these right-wing grifters or if I'm just being hopeful.

At the very least if they start turning on these con artists, that would be enough to make me smile.

To me this shows that The Daily Wire is not simply grifters grifting for the money. If it was just about scamming their fans for money, they'd see which way the wind was blowing and shut up about this. Instead they're carrying water for the most unsympathetic billionaires at the cost of angering their fans.

The Daily Wire since inception has been first and foremost about representing the interests of capital, even over their own personal financial interests. They know who made the Daily Wire possible, and it wasn't chuds, it was fossil fuel billionaires.

I doubt most of their fans will understand this, though.
