Yeah, I’m beyond fed up with the “Russia Hoax” nonsense. It’s not a “conspiracy theory,” it is proven fact that the Russians have been manipulating not just our elections, but any elections that threaten to grow democracy and suppress oppressive right-wing extremism.

None of this is new, we have been actively conflicting with them since the end of WWII. “The Cold War” wasn’t just a marketing phrase, we really have been actively at war with the Soviet Union/Russia since 1945. The Russians have spent literally every second of every day, ATTACKING us in every way they can, short of weaponry. After all these decades, their widespread efforts have begun to coalesce, and bear fruit. Brexit, for instance, has been proven to have been driven primarily by Russian propaganda.

For another instance, we also know for a fact that the Russians hacked into the DNC emails, because Dutch intelligence secretly had control of the security cameras in the room where the Russian hackers were operating, and literally saw the moment they started hacking (Immediately after he stopped his usual word salad speech, and turned to the camera, and clearly said “Russia, if you are listening…”, obviously a signal that he was accepting their help), and their celebration when the hack succeeded. Dutch intelligence thought it was important enough to let American intelligence know about, so they burned their source to inform us, losing any chance to monitor the hacking room in the future. And what did the Obama administration do with this information, in combination with all the other intelligence they had about the Russians actively interfering in the 2016 election? Absolutely NOTHING. The Dutch burned an amazing source to inform us, for nothing. I’m sure they won’t bother the next time.

These things have been proven by our intelligence services, and intelligence services from around the world. It isn’t just a political position taken just to be contrary to the other side, it is written history, and it is as stupid as stupid gets to deny it, and really really stupid to make childish fun of those who actually understand the Russian role in the modern world. You might as well be making fun of people who think the Earth is round. Denying the Russian Conspiracy make a person sound just as stupid.
