Why not say it? Anyone who votes Republican won't care a bit. They will deny any Russian interference in our elections while simultaneously praising Russia for having the balls to not only interfere but brag about it.

[Lucavi]

The fact that they can say it and Repubs will just say that the Russians are trying to benefit the Dems just proves that their propaganda and interference was so effective that they don't have to hide it anymore.

Why NOT say it, at this point? This country is irreconcilably split. Its not going to kill itself or anything, but the tribalism has reached a near apex.

Yeah, the bragging should only be behind closed doors like when America interferes in elections with greater severity.

Yes, obviously it's bad when we do it as well dipshit. Stop your what-about-ism.

Anytime I point to hypocrisy you just call it whataboutism. Truth is, Russian election interference in America is grossly exaggerated and is no comparison to the US. So no, you don't get to whine about election interference when there isn't a leg to stand on.

Its not really hypocrisy when we hate it just as much. Its not hypocrisy at all when the only people who deny it are the same people who deny Russian interference and who it "benefits".

The same people who hate Russia for what it has successfully done since (at least) 2008 are the same people who hate what Megacorporate worship has done to the nation. There's no "hypocrisy" here.

[Spicyryan]

Yah say you hate it just as much, but it is grossly lopsided.

[Athas]

Feel free to substantiate that claim.

[Kaslo]

You dismiss Russian interference here, but don't dismiss the USA's interference elsewhere... seems you are the hypocrite good sir.

[Spicyryan]

Feel free to substantiate that claim.

What facet of it? That Dems still whine about Russian election interference as a way to avoid accepting full responsibility for their embarrassing loss, and show they have learned little with Biden and now these Midterms?
That Putin hasn't forgotten the '96 election in Russia?
That the US has a far greater weight of election interference?

Don't believe those really need to be substantiated. Outside of my assertion that the Dems have learned little since 2016 and continue to double down today. The rest are just simply the record.

If your nation is as bad or worse then you don't have a leg to stand on when it comes to attacking another for the same thing if you aren't attacking your own for it.

[Tymon]

Ah yes, we're back to the "The USA is as bad or worse than Russia" stuff.

[Spicyryan]

Ah yes, we're back to the "The USA is as bad or worse than Russia" stuff.

No, it's the same assertion I keep insinuating that serveal people don't have genuine values and morals as thet lack any ideological consistency. Choosing only to cudgel a perceived foe for the sake of it.

You act like the average American is an any way informed about these things.

Doesn't seem to matter when they respond though, now does it?

[NynJa]

This is where you quote yourself and post the leo pointing gif

[Mrbeansman]

Pretty sure very few people here have not condemned US atrocities abroad.

Not sure why people engage with someone that does nothing but bitch about politics and doesn't vote.

"Doesn't vote, so they pretty much aren't even a person."

[Tyrath]

I mean if I never went bowling yet tried to tell everyone how to bowl, I'd look like an idiot too.

If you don't want to engage in the political system with pretty much the only way you have access to it, don't be mad when people think it's fine to ignore your opinions.
