Yeah, that's a fantasy, too. Which foreign dictator has the free time on his hands in the midst of a global pandemic to be engineering this?
Not Putin. Not Xi. Certainly not Kim, or Assad. Got a foreign dictator in mind here?
Like I said, Putin, Xi, and the rest of them have other worries right now. The last thing they're looking for is ANOTHER three hundred million aggrieved people looking to them for better answers right now.
Hey, you can speculate about anything, but if you're going to make up fairy tales about things, at least go with something more interesting.
Fu Manchu. Ming the Merciless. Professor Moriarty.
If you've abandoned concrete reality for fantasy, go all the way.
@mcfate They don't need a new effort, just to keep on doing what they have been. That's all I'm saying.
"They"? Doing what, precisely?
This is hand-waving, if you ask me. People need to stop wasting energy giving themselves the willies over nonsense.
@chakaal
I'm on the topic of "it's a complete waste of effort on the Russians' part when it comes to actually influencing elections; the chief effect seems to be convincing a few of the easily-frightened that they're more capable than they are, and convincing them to share that belief."
