    Anyone who suggests Russia wasn’t involved in <insert bad thing here> is a Russian bot or a Chinese Wumao or a radical Islamist trying to trick me into not blaming the Russians for something.

    I won’t fall for it.

      It’s wild the things they accuse Russia of. My favorite is when everyone was convinced that Putin blew up Nord Stream 2, and now everyone thinks it was genius statecraft from Ukraine.

        It’ll never top the folks who are convinced $25k in Facebook ads cost Hillary’s $2B campaign the election in 2016.

        But it is dizzying to see how quickly we Doublespeak about Russia/Ukraine. It’s The Battle of the Somme every day in America.
