Extremely sus that they need help now and not 20 years ago given the US’s track record of persecuting journalists in the region.
A couple twitter threads worth reading:

And in case your first thought is, “Well we didn’t know what all abuses were happening, but we know the Taliban will be shitty and repressive!”, you might wanna check the tape on that.
hm, that is t rue.
for me the US and taliban are similar bad? but taliban are no emanicapatory movement
Oh yeah I’m not saying they’re liberators or anything. Just that the journalists who need defense from persecution now but haven’t for the last 20 years are probably mouthpieces for empire
