Yeah, Xi and Putin. Used to be Soros too but he stopped paying a few years back.
Seriously though, what media operation, "tankie" media is like 5 bloggers who all want to strangle each other.

I don't want to strangle any hexbears

I think he means stuff like Mint Press, The Grayzone, Geopolitical Economy Report, Breakthrough News, The Deprogram, and some other media operations I can't think of off the top of my head.
Lmao what media operation.
Bro there is no openly communist western media outside of some nichie indie projects
To be fair there are publications put out by various communist parties in the US ranging from serious to deeply unserious. 
runs it's own news network, Liberation News. It's a communist publication run by a good communist party
Yeah but that probably isn't what this idiot is talking about.
He's probably referring to types like the PatSoc weirdos, of whom a solid chunk are probably funded by the US as a means of recapturing any baby leftists who wander after them (this idiot probably thinks they're funded by China or w/e though just because they're 'leftist')
honestly probably true. this is the same psychology of when you're high in public and start to believe everyone else is high in public. or people who cheat on their spouses believing everyone is cheating on their spouses, dudes on roids in the gym believing everyone in the gym is on roids, etc.

May I be so selfish to remind you how much I love this little corner of the fediverse
It may not be the biggest community but I am pretty sure it's in the top 3 as far as activity. But yes I love this place too.
I needed to look twice at his avatar first time i thought it was some version of happy merchant.
Incredible stuff, I can see a LOT of potential with the “happy shopper” in response to chuds
Wait, we have a media operation?
Oh, you mean the shitty little memes now and then, maybe a few tiktoks that slip through the filters. I'm sure it's destabilizing the entire western hegemony.
Then again, who am i to say it won't. Supposedly a few russina facebook ads totaling like $100k turned all of America racist and woke at the same time and destroyed democracy. We just need to find that One. Perfect. Meme. And it's all over.
LoL this is actually hilarious. Socialist organizers arrested and charged with being Russian agents? Check. Online shitposters than want to stop a genocide? Check.
They are all controlled by Putin especially those Nader bros is 2000 no I mean the Bernie bros in 2016 wait no the Jull Stein supporters in 2024 that lost the election for Hillary I mean kamala
Et fucking cetera
I'm not, I meme and post purely for love. But sometimes I wonder if this is scabbing and I'm driving comrades' wages down by posting for free
Putting down CIA-backed anticommunism is actually the worst form of state authoritarianism, according to the CIA guy, working for the world-historic forces of oppression and white supremacy
The only "thing" "funding" "our" "media" "operation" besides donations from users is our terminally online behavior and depression.

under historical idealism it's easy. the US stopped doing all that stuff right after the most recent blood-soaked example you can come up with of the US doing that stuff, because America is so good and enlightened.
Communists are being equated to Nazis in the image. This is obviously America-brained enlightened centrism-flavored Nazi
Ah, but the tankies were the first to make accusations of intelligence agency funding against Bellingcat, therefore it is the tankies who are confessing. 
PayPal and Venmo ban our news sources because that's how foreign governments fund their operations right? That's definitely not because they rely on reader donations or anything, obviously.
me casually taking it like a champ and stating that Xi personally pays me 50CNY an hour to dunk on haters
