    You cant just blame “those pesky, conniving foreigners” when your country descends into fascism after 2 centuries of racism, genocide, and withering away of social safety nets.

      Nice, trying to dismiss the very real threat Russia poses as racism. Sounds like something a Russian would do.

        Nice, trying to dismiss the very real threat that American capitalism poses as Russian shilling. Sounds like something a State Department agent would do.

        Face it: whatever threat Russia poses wasn’t a major factor in getting trump elected. It was paid for by US oligarchs, not putin.

        Agreed. Those damn Russians forced us to genocide the natives and do slavery too, and anyone who tries to deflect blame off of Russia and onto Americans is clearly trying to serve Russian interests, so their perspective can be dismissed without consideration.

        Those fucking Russians crapped my pants, too.
