The usual boogie man.

Did you read that link? It’s hardly damming.

“Through a fund, the foundation issued a $3 million grant to the Indivisible Organization that was good for two years "to support the grantee's social welfare activities.” The grants were not specifically for the No Kings protests, the foundation said.”

If 7 million people protested, that 3 million over 2 years sure went a long way. They work for pennies.

I'm not sure why you are attacking me, I am clearly replying to someone who is claiming that recent times the retort of "paid demonstrators" is effective, and I have pointed out that the claim of people being paid to demonstrate has been made for decades, if not centuries.

Thank you for articulating the accusation, giving me the opportunity to respond, but try to take your own advice and read what's actually being said.

You replied to the wrong person. Look further down thread for the person who posted that link.

Argh. Thank you.

Uhh - My client is showing that my comment was up for a couple of hours before you replied

That's around the maximum time allowed to edit a comment on Hacker News.

For the level of attack you injected in your previous comment, and now a claim of dishonesty, I would need to see some actual evidence of your claims (I know that I never posted that link, and am confused why you would try such a bizarre claim)

They replied to the wrong comment. The one they meant to reply to was from monero-xmr further down.

Awesome_dude, the error is all mine and my reply was to the wrong comment.

@onraglanroad thank you for pointing out the error.
