“Oh nonsense! There’s no Chinese interference in any US politics!” said a number of chucklefucks to me time and time again when I kept raising the issue.

This is USApes main line of defense when anything ruffles their feathers close to election season. It's just soooooo easy to rile these mfers, that it's easy to predict what next country they're going to blame for their shitty politicians and dumb populace. It's going to be one of:

It's Russia, China, North Korea, Cuba, Iran, Antarctica, Aliens, Satan.

What the fuck ever happened to burden of proof. We're taking Microsoft's word at its face value when they can't secure their own servers from security incidents over and over in last couple of years.

It's also ironic that the country that controls most of the social media companies on the Internet and in effect controls narrative on most other nations points fingers at someone else.

Eat that shit up raw bruh. The boogeyman is coming for ya.

Yeah except both China and Russia have clearly documented trolling factories where they churn out bullshit to stir trouble in the west.
