Love your content, but on this topic, I would add that we are not united (left). The DNC is closer to being Republican Lite(centrist), and pulling the message that way, and not in the direction of actual progress. So when these influencers get paid to pull the narrative away from progressive ideology, it brings us further from unity and the actual will of the people.

Proportion matters. Left wing creators got a few thousand a month. Tim Pool was getting half a million per post. Of all the dark money out there, how much is going to the right wing?

A number of them have now addressed it and seems the author of the article is the problem. It is not at all a dark money pac but a fund helping small creators get their messaging out while helping them. The author is of the article is a slime ball.

we know you aren't one of the people taking money. you're actually voicing left opinions as opposed to anyone who is promoting the Democrats.

Agreed accept the dark money was also used to stop info and create misinformation about gaža and attack leftists. I really doesn’t care that they got paid but it was used to kill the left

The left’s messaging is human rights and equality. If leftist content creators get paid to say that good for them. They’re getting compensated for their time.

I’m not saying this was a Russian influence operation operation too, just that we wouldn’t be able to tell the difference if it were something designed to sow major distrust in left leaning indie journalists

the lefts problem is the same problem we've been having against fascism for decades, we point at each other instead of having a united front.

these creators have to get money from somewhere to be full time I get it but it should be transparent who the money comes from and what sway that has on their content, then you can decide wether you trust their opinions armed with that information.

Don’t follow blindly. Including journalists/content creators. And remember there’s no real “content creator code of ethics”. This is also how creators who are independent journalists can get taken advantage of. Questioning something can mean you care about it. Even if you don’t agree with the article it’s an opportunity to have that discussion and consider what truths we take in and their validity. And which ones are being ignored.

vertical morality and a deference to hierarchy sure are helpful things when your voting base has no capacity for critical analysis and no ethics to speak of.

This is kinda how it always goes though, the American rights almost always been better at messaging/propaganda, and being ahead of the Dems on media outreach. Then the Dems and their supporters pick up those strategies, but they're infinitely less malicious (effective) and well financed.

If the creators agreed with the message they were asked to make posts about why does it matter? It seems like it would only be a problem if they sold out and were pushing content they themselves did not agree with or content that was morally reprehensible.
