Thank you for providing the media take over angle. I wish the people down voting you would explain why.


He’s got the wrong guy on the paramount deal. It’s David Ellison though they’re related:

David Ellison is Larry Ellison's son, and Larry Ellison spent $6 billion on the Paramount deal. It's not really a stretch to imagine that the father might have some influence on the resulting operation. (According to a cursory web search, on paper Larry Ellison now has a 35.5% voting interest and David Ellison has a 64.5% voting interest.)


I agree it’s not that big of a stretch, but it elevates the discussion when you communicate what part of your argument is objectively correct vs a stretch.

My knee-jerk reaction was to upvote the comment, but that’s how Ecco chambers get increasingly divorced from reality.


how do you know if anyone is downvoting a comment?


The text gets lighter in color and harder to read. People may come later and vote for it, darkening the text again.

I don't believe for a second that you're being downvoted by someone with multiple accounts. You're being downvoted because you tried to frame a lukewarm observation (that brought receipts!) as some insane conspiratorial hot take in a really transparent manner, while simultaneously misrepresenting it (zionists vs jews) and ridiculing it (flat earth comparison).

Enough with the tone policing. The original comment is accurate: Paramount seeks to install Zionist Bari Weiss. This is uncontroversially true.


Can you explain the conspiracy?

As a jew (it's a shame I need to admit this in order to get through your dishonest screening), he's talking about zionists, not jews.


They said Israel. They said Zionists. You said they said Jews. Israel is not Jews. Zionists are not Jews.
