    Is it ruZZian propaganda or the simple fact that the voting public is largely made up of reactionary white kulaks who love Trump's brand of fascism?

    No, it's ruZZia.

      Its surreal. As a kid when i learned about Nazi Germany id think wow how could anyone go along with that? Now as an adult some of the people i used to trust as a kid are literal brownshirts.

      It doesnt even feel real sometimes. And yet here we are.

        It's because Americans have been trained to think fascism is spectacular (a myth pushed by fascists themselves) so the mundane nature of everyday fascism doesn't really affect them.

          A lot of time and energy was spent trying to paint fascism as an inherently foreign entity that comes into their midst. They will quote that whole "holding a Bible and wearing the flag" line and still imagine it as some kind of disguise it wears and not the form it takes when it sprouts from within.

    I will always laugh when these the same folks who boil down our ideology to "America bad". Somehow russia has their hooks that deeply in the average American psyche

      They don't think they have a viable alternative and they probably are right (cf. assassination)

      Republicans have no agency and are all sleeper agents for Russia AND we need a strong Republican party for the good of our country.

    Redditors are so odd. They can act like they're in a movie and the camera just put them in a close-up before they read their line highlighting the foreign threat. I guess in their head the next thing they thought of was...

    "SEAL Team Reddit - gimme a sitrep on Operation Block Russia Disinfo. Repeat - gimme a sitrep on..."

    I think the lesson some libs learned doing "critical media analysis " is that propaganda is magic and is most effective when wielded by not very wealthy actors

    Lev Parnas got exactly what he wanted. Now people on reddit can't clearly call a victory two months in advance. The world has fallen into chaos.
