As opposed to the "blood money" invested by the US govt. in technology companies? Do you also have problems with Twitter, Google and Facebook getting money from the US govt.?

Let's not forget, the US govt., both Republicans and Democrats, have directly or indirectly killed millions of people in the last decade...

I don't see you complaining about that "blood money" here or anywhere, though.

I'm just asking, I'm not taking sides or anything, cause it kind of is what it comes down to.
Nice false equivalence argument, but I'm afraid it's going to fall on deaf ears.

Funny how many Russian apologists are here all of a sudden.

This breaks the HN guidelines in two major ways: it's a personal attack and it's an insinuation of astroturfing or shillage without evidence. Those are poison to substantive discussion and we ban accounts that do them, so please follow https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and don't comment like this again.

The rest of the internet may be insane right now but that doesn't mean we have to imitate it here.
