    I assume it’s also priced that way because it can be used for propaganda.

    Legacy media, hasn’t made a profit for years? There’s always some rich fascist cunt or nasty foreign government willing to buy it for more than it’s worth so they can push their agenda.

    It’s not about making money for them. It’s about power and influence.

        My government isn’t particularly nasty, especially compared to some of the worst autocratic regimes, because they’re worried about the next election.

        Sucks if that isn’t the case for you.
