The Kremlin has long sought to sow chaos using ‘information confrontation’. That job just got a lot easier

      we’ll see in 4 years. Their next election, if they have one, will be the test.

      All of donald’s executive orders can be undone in a day. Wonder why he doesn’t try to make real change using Republican majorities 🤷

      probably because he doesn’t care about the U.S., he is there to make money and he got his “get out of jail” card

      Lemmy for one is infested with Russian pretending to be American.

      Everyone you don’t like is a russian troll, to be honest i’ve yet to meet someone on lemmy that is actually from russia.

        The people who are too scared of saying “Putin is breaking international law with the illegal invasion of Ukraine and is a war criminal and should be tried for his crimes”, or even “Putin is a criminal” or “Putin is wrong” or “Russia was wrong to invade Ukraine”, the people who never utter a single detail about themselves (except when claiming to be “born&bred American”) but constantly comment on American politics, and each of their comments aligns with Russian propaganda?

        Yeah, it’s not “everyone”, sweetums. <3

        If you guys drank less and read more as a people you wouldn’t be ridiculed so bad. Now it’s like genuinely ridiculous how unaware you are of how fucking see-through you are.

        It’s ludicrous. I would laugh if it the Americans also weren’t so stupid that you actually managed to put an agent at their head of state. Because that is actually worrying.

        Russia itself is weak and backwards as fuck but if they manage to mangle the US, Russia+China will give Europe a running for our money.

        Don’t worry, toveri, mä oon rajal sua vastas.

            Dude wee had this chat like a dozen times.

            Here’s how it’ll go.

            I point out your shitty rhetoric. You equivocate. I ask if you wouldn’t mind confirming Putin is a warcriminal, you get scared of being thrown out of a window and don’t reply, then I point out how you’re a little scaredycat, afraid of saying “Putin is a smalldicked dictator”, then you pretend “I already said it” (when you never did.)

            Then I point that out and you run away as usual

        It’s not all of them, but it’s enough to influence idiots.

        Like people seriously underestimate Russian disinfo and cyber warfare.

        You’ll find Russians absolutely fucking everywhere.

        People exactly like Davel.

        I had a similar moron on Ireland discord claim he’s native born Irish, I taunted him to voice channel and when he spoke it was a very heavy Russian accent, and bro didn’t even know what a limerick is.

        It’s beyond easy to catch poorly educated Ruskis playing westerners if you keep any wits about you.

          If you see russians everywhere you are probably underestimating american disinfo and cyber warfare. USA has the most powerful and technological advanced army in the world and they spend 10 times more in war than russia. For every russian agent you see expect there to be at last 1 american.

            Yes hello.

            I was waiting for one of you to turn up.

            Don’t think I be forgotten your nickname.

            Nice strawmanning, but “on every platform” =/= “everywhere.”

            Thanks for the case in point, comrade!

              Believe what you want i’m simply pointing out the obvious, if you only see russia propaganda around and none from the west ask yourself a question.

                  I confirm he’s a warcriminal. trump, putin, zelenskyy, macron and pretty much all rulers are corrupted pigs with blood on their hands, don’t you agree?
