Much of the pro-Trump content of facebook comes from the Epoch Times. A right wing media outlet caught laundering millions in a crypto scheme.

@futurebird Plus Epoch is owned by a literal cult, by every definition of the word.

@futurebird It is funny to think Epoch times pushing much conspiracy theory and right wing agenda. They are part of Fa Lun Gong organization which was brutally oppressed by Chinese communist party and now they are part of MAGA. I guess they wants to help Trump destroy democracy.

@futurebird they used to (and might still) hand these out for free in midtown during rush hour. 🤢 It was so obviously an agenda-pushing rag since it was neither sensational nor ad-heavy (a la NYDN, amNY, etc), and free.

@futurebird and kinda curious the article never mentions any of the u.s. govt funding they get -- much of it for software development. 🤔

@futurebird Epoch Times is one of just 4 newspapers I see in supermarkets here.
It has a spot next to LA Times, NY Times, and our local paper.
It used to be free. Wondering who buys that hot garbage.
