@mtaibbi Where are you getting Democrats from? He specifically mentioned far-right. Has there been approval from the Democrats and not the Republicans for this type of behavior? And where is he getting far-right from? He appears to blame the far-right for everything.

Again, I just don’t understand how Democrats can be okay with this sort of thing. Yanking services from people because of their opinions?

This is one of the West's smartest and most informed scholars on Ukraine/Russia.

Because he's often criticized Ukraine and presented facts undermining NATO's narrative, GoFundMe almost blocked his crowdfunding to write a book.

A very worthwhile project to support if you can:

The statement is part of a conversation about political tactics and the perceived endorsement of such tactics by certain political groups. The tone is critical and implies a double standard in the application of these tactics based on political affiliation. The content addresses the use of financial platforms to potentially suppress certain viewpoints or individuals.

  1. Principle 2:
    I will respect the privacy and dignity of others and will not engage in cyberbullying, harassment, or hate speech.
    The statement does not appear to engage in cyberbullying, harassment, or hate speech, but it does generalize about a political group which could be seen as lacking respect for the dignity of individuals within that group. [-1]
  2. Principle 4:
    I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.
    The statement engages in criticism but does not seem to invite constructive dialogue or acknowledge the complexity of the issue. [-1]
  3. Principle 6:
    I will use my influence for the betterment of society.
    The statement criticizes a perceived inconsistency in the use of influence by a political group, but it does not itself use influence for the betterment of society.
  4. Principle 7:
    I will uphold the principles of free speech and use my platform responsibly and with integrity.
    The statement upholds the principle of free speech by criticizing the potential suppression of it, but the use of generalizations may not reflect responsible discourse.
