I’m slowly drifting into the ‘no russian interference’ camp too. I mean, I don’t consider buying Facebook ads and shit to be interference, considering this entire board could come together and do the same thing to a country like Vanuatu.
Which we should do.
Just sayin’.
That’s absolutely interference. It’s a crime in the US actually.
It's interference and everyone does it. Israel has been interfering in US elections for decades in far worse ways than troll farms and fake news.
And people bitch about Israel all the time, meanwhile Russia is killing people in the UK soil. Harmless trolls you guys.
Oh fuck off with that intellectually dishonest bullshit, are you seriously comparing the liberal hysteria against Russia with the way some liberals sheepishly sometimes criticize Israel? And it's not like Mossad has assassinated people on foreign soil right? Oh wait, these were "our enemies", it doesn't count.
The problem is though, that Russia keeps moving the bar because the weak ass position of NATO allows them to do that.
Had the NATO members all spend the 2% on defense like they were supposed to do Putin wouldn't dare to move beyond his own borders.
But when half of them sold their tanks, blew their cruise missile load on a shithole like Libya, waited to replace the F16's until they had 0 air-worthy planes and Obama did nothing to counter the propaganda or election meddling...
Sure, he can move that border up bit by bit.
