The United States on Friday released a U.S. intelligence assessment sent to more than 100 countries that found Moscow is using spies, social media and Russian state-run media to erode public faith in the integrity of democratic elections worldwide.
“This is a global phenomenon,” said the assessment. “Our information indicates that senior Russian government officials, including the Kremlin, see value in this type of influence operation and perceive it to be effective.”
A senior State Department official, briefing reporters on condition of anonymity, said that Russia was encouraged to intensify its election influence operations by its success in amplifying disinformation about the 2020 U.S. election and the COVID-19 pandemic.
They can point out that hypocrisy in their own post, instead of derailing this one.
Nah, this is just how a conversation works IRL. Points, counterpoints.
All parties just agreeing with each other staying on the same point is not a conversation.
Making a counterpoint can hardly be considered derailing the conversation .
Fine. Carry on with the foreign hate, while ignoring America’s problems. Can you at least acknowledge that the US has interfered in foreign elections? Lol
I have no problem discussing that, at all. Create a topic I’ll be glad to add my opinion to it.
The only point I’m making is that you shouldn’t be discussing two distinct points simultaneously, take them one at a time.
Even Jesus gets this. Why can’t you?
I’m actually big on forgiveness for those who are honest and earnest about redemption.
Having said that, when you say this to someone …
That’s going to get a response, from anyone who’s on the receiving end of it.
Oh, and for the record, my wife is a foreigner, born and raised in another country. So hating foreigners is really not my thing.
How did this become about you?
Well, …
What was the original article about anyway?
I wasn’t replying to the original article, I was replying to your comment…
… concerning your earlier comment to me in the form of a question…
Okay so now your are making a counter point. You’re saying hypocrisy invalidates A point. You’re saying that if I live in a country that does shitty things that I can’t criticize shitty things another country has done?
But countries aren’t people. They’re closer to corporations. I can criticize Pepsi while working at Coke. I don’t give a shit about either countries or corps beyond the people they employ
