In the worst-case scenarios that the Biden administration has quietly simulated over the past year or so, Russian hackers working on behalf of Vladimir V. Putin bring down hospital systems across the United States. In others, China’s military hackers trigger chaos, shutting down water systems and electric grids to distract Americans from an invasion of Taiwan.

Such a perfect encapsulation of liberal propaganda

    America: bombs hospitals and vital infrastructure like water treatment facilities in multiple global South countries

    Also America: Wouldn't it be horrifying if a nation was to take down hospitals and vital infrastructure?

      I really think that's key. American's cannot imagine that everyone doesn't want to do to them what they mindlessly do to others. It's like that addage where a liar believes taht everyone else is a liar and a thief believes everyone else is a thief.

        Same tenor as “If you run into an asshole in the morning, you ran into an asshole. If you run into assholes all day, you're the asshole.”

    Our nefarious racialized enemies aren't attacking us. That's a problem, because we're not sure how to keep you hogs dumb and scared when they refuse to play along - The New York Times

    lemme guess NYT, to solve this we gotta buy more monopolistic security software that requires giving the American military industrial complex unfettered admin access to critical infrastructure systems

      That’s been a mediocre action movie plot for decades, I’m sure this isn’t the first time US adversaries are seeing it lol.

      Sounds like a very efficient way to cripple American society

      The NYT times is out here implying that China and Russia would have to hack individual things like power stations or whatever, when the actual lesson is that the vast majority of the world is crippled by attacking one cybersecurity vendor

    you see, all those carriers and submarines and fighter planes won't work unless you're sitting at home rooting for them on TV

    distract Americans from an invasion of Taiwan

    Americans are so fucking bloodthirsty and liberals so fucking obsessed about their small bean uwu island Taiwan that the entire US could literally be crumbling into an abyss piece by piece while every human vanishes into the voids left behind, and they would be glued to their television watching breathless 24/7 MSNBC coverage of the war interspersed with racist Jon Oliver segments, their lips dripping in saliva at the thought of seeing the Three Gorges Dam collapse and millions of civilians perish
