    The wikileaks to right winger pipeline is a very clear line that goes through Russian psyops.

        They can’t compete with the US economically if you look at GDP, so the most rational way to fight back is with psyops and phishing schemes. Much like the war in Iran has probably caused a bunch of DDOS attacks on different points in our internet infrastructure. I used to work QA for a company making jerky, and while you might not expect it, we were hit with tons of them. It’s cheap-ass warfare for its effectiveness.
