In the 1940s, Superman was knowns for the motto "Truth, Justice, and the American Way". In ensuing decades, however, many have found that more money can be made by promoting the opposite.

What unites Donald Trump, 'Donbass Devushka', the NRC and Seth Weathers, the promoter of the anti-trans, anti-Bud Light beer, have in common? Did you say, "grifting off of anti-American propaganda?" If so, you are correct (and not "right").

In reverse order, Weathers, " it's a remarkable grift: blame "wokeness" for one of the most basic tenets of your beloved capitalism, and then unabashedly ripoff the suckers who fall for it. Because a $30+ sixer of Bud Light definitely isn't aimed at the hard-workin', salt-of-the-Earth Americans!" Anti-woke" Bud Light knockoff is $35 for a six-pack, ("Especially if you have to wait at least a month before the beer actually ships (assuming it's not a complete scam, and actually does ship eventually"), and the NRC was riding the same wave to grift donors with beer-koozies. NRCC launches anti-Bud Light campaign, yanks it when someone realizes Anheuser-Busch is major donor

Sara Bils ('Donbass Devushka') is using her anti-American, pro-Russia platforms to hawk T-shirts: "In the US, most of these Moscow supporters promote Russia because it embodies the antithesis of an America they can no longer stand," he says, adding that expediency probably plays a part.

"It's a niche market that can make a lot of money," Hawn notes.

Indeed, Bils had set up an online store – which was taken offline last weekend – selling various items proclaiming support for the Russian war effort in Ukraine, including T-shirts and mugs celebrating Putin, pro-Kremlin Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov or Yevgeny Prigozhin, the Wagner Group boss."

And then there is the king of grift, Donald Trump... authoritarianism sells!

They're grifting their supporters, and we pay the price.

And I can't think of a better image to represent these people than that of a man using a pole flying the American flag to beat a cop while attempting to illegally overthrow a US presidential election.

And don't forget making money off the Chinese, Ukrainians and people from other countries by spreading around your father's name, as Hunter Biden did. We STILL don't know what he actually did to earn that money.

If you want to lump hunter in with anti-Americans like trump, I’m not sure a lot of people are going to care enough to argue.

I hadn't, but was going to add Fox's media debacle to my next post.
 
I've often wondered if some of our posting brethren make money off their anti-American screeds, or if they're just naturally ... um, unpleasant.
 
Fox "News" stands out in its anti-American, anti-truth, anti-values, anti-humanity projections. What is particularly galling is their efforts to cloak their grift in jingoism. That it is a grift has been demonstrated without peradventure by recent internal exposures.

But the anti-American nature of their broadcasts has been evident from the outset. American values traditionally include fidelity, national interests, diversity. Instead, Fox has consistently been an instrument of mendacity, division, and destruction of our social framework.

I'd be surprised if any of them make money. The ones making money - and as I understand, the people being paid are hired groups - are usually targeting much bigger numbers of people. I think what we see are people who have accepted propaganda and been manipulated. That they're sincere, though, even if that means they're just trolling.

And don’t forget how Trump went on about boycotting China he was…at the same time…making sure that his daughter go the copyrights she needed from the Vhimese government to run her shitty clothing like there….

"Do as I hope you want me to say, not as I hope you don't notice I do. And send money."

I haven't seen any evidence that Trump had anything to do with his daughter's business. Everything she did, she did on her own.

You say Hunter, I say Ivanka/Jarred. You say China, I say Russia.

Maybe we should have a special committee (the PrezKids Committee) set up to investigate Biden and Trump offspring.

It doesn't matter what you've seen or haven't
 
P.T. Barnum explained in pretty well over 100 years ago - "There's a sucker born every minute"
The difference in recent times is that the grifters now have social media/email/internet and hence much easier access to the suckers 'en masse'. It's never been easier to spread lies and deceptions, and it's never been easier to fleece the suckers

Just a coincidence then that she received a large bunch (16) of Chinese trademarks not long after daddy took office?
