If you haven’t noticed in recent times, liberals have been accusing the Trump administration and basically anybody who criticizes Biden/Kamala/liberalism of being a Russian agent or puppet! (Or sometimes a Chinese or Iranian puppet, but Russia is the most common)
It can’t be the fault of the United States themselves! It can’t be that liberal capitalism would eventually degenerate into fascism! It can’t be that people are genuinely furious at the government independent of foreign powers!
It’s all the Russians!
It’s especially infuriating when they accuse leftists (particularly pro-Palestinian activists) of being “just funded by the Russians!” It’s like liberals refuse to take responsibility for their own ideology’s atrocities and think that their precious liberalism can never be wrong and all the haters are just fake.
Are the Russian bots in the room with us right now?
Russian state disinformation is also, seemingly, the most powerful influence on Earth. Seriously, it can get into anything and affect everyone. US-based free media press are under Russian influence depending on who you ask. The president himself? A cold war sleeper agent. It’s all Russia!
These are the same groups of people who, generally, can’t comprehend how Trump won, and how many trumpists spout earnest disinformation like their lives depended on it. So much disinformation is present, Trump won the presidency!
But no, it’s Russian disinformation that’s causing all the problems. America just has, um, cooky rednecks.
