    That feels contrived. Are we expected to form international policy based on social media buzz?

    Edit to add: is not that the Biden administration is losing interest in supporting Ukraine, it’s just that half of Congress is taking orders from someone who wants Putin to win.

      It’s also real fuckin obvious that a lot of this solical media sentiment is manufactured. Just today I was browsing reddit discussions and if you dig through a great deal of these account’s user history they’re obviously troll accounts stirring shit. Sometimes it’s insanely blatant because they know the vast majority of people will never look.
