“Internally, Sky executives have become increasingly concerned about the editorial position Sky News Arabia has taken on news in the region. Coverage of the atrocities carried out in Sudan by the UAE-backed paramilitary group, Rapid Support Forces (RSF), has been accused of whitewashing genocide.”
The UAE is the biggest financial back of the RSF in Sudan. Though less reported on, it is the largest humanitarian disaster and genocide on Earth right now.

This is an opp and nothing but that. This platform is a fairytale. Its clear the DSA has no idea how our form of government works. The only conclusion I can draw is they are chaos agents only here to disrupt. These goals aren’t well thought out at all.

American politics is just gender, education polarization, and the rural/urban split (which itself is probably just gender and education polarization) in a trench coat and no amount of Marxist posturing about standing up for the working man against the capitalists will unmake that
