    I mean you’re not wrong, but Russia/Putin absolutely is to blame for a lot of things that contributed to the rise of fascism in America and Europe in the 21st century.

      Nothing would’ve taken place if the conditions weren’t already there. White supremacy, a country of easily indoctrinated fools who refuse to think about anything and amorality made it happen, the Russians were but one group of many whispering into American ears.
