OK i Like u as a poster. Don't ruin this by telling me Russian State Media isn't owned by the Russian State. Like this isn't a conspiracy theory like covid or the size of a user's titties. It's fuckin fact.
That is what these people can't wrap their head around. They don't trust FBI reports. They don't trust the investigations. They don't trust anything except right wing propaganda that stems from Murdoch and Putin and gets propagated by 'independent media' who are not actual journalists, but mouth pieces that just repeat what they hear.
Most of them don't understand that Russia did meddle in elections. They did hack western private and government systems. They used the data gained on westerners to advertise on social media like Facebook and Youtube, and people like soy/aldra/spectral/etc all eat it up. The Russian government DID collude with the Trump admin. This is known fact and people are in prison for it. Yet you still have people believing otherwise even as investigations are ongoing and releasing new information about the issue constantly.
https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/national-security/u-s-has-new-intel-manafort-friend-kilimnik-gave-trump-n1264371"Witch hunt" is what they think, because that's what the Russians have pushed right wing 'independent media' to think. It's what they've advertised.
It's crazy actually considering how the whole red scare shit was pushed by the right. Trump spent 4 years without passing any kind of security law because passing one would've been detrimental to him in the 2020 elections. Russians want the right to win. They've shown that repeatedly. Whether it's Trump or some other puppet, it's always going to be the same shit.
Like seriously what are you going to do to regulate 'BLM' or 'Antifa'? What does it accomplish to take a stance against activists? There is almost always violence when you have any movement big enough, but that doesn't mean the message isn't a good message. People have gotten so fucked in the head as to think BLM is actually anti-white or racist in some way, when all people want is for the police to be less militarized and be held accountable for their actions, which basically fucking everybody agrees on.
It's actually ludicrous how much everybody just agrees on politics when it comes down to it. Everybody is rational and using a logical line of thinking, but come to different conclusions based on the reality they've been shown.
If Antifa was an actual organization planning crimes, then yeah, I would say go ahead and arrest their leaders. Lock all terrorists up. Left or right or middle or purple, IDGAF. But you can't do that, because they are not an organization. We CAN do something to at least quell the issues that people are rioting about in the first place.
Meanwhile on the right you have actual terrorism being planned by leaders and enacted by its members. We can and have arrested them and gone after their organization. This is why the FBI has made all its statements about white supremacy and right wing nationalism being a threat. It's because those are the groups they're arresting, and the ones worth investigating. But nah. Somehow people are so twisted that think the FBI is actually full of lefties or some shit. It's all the 'deep state' making up investigations for no reason. Russia is innocent. Antifa is the real threat.
