Russia and China have been doing for the past couple years, what the CIA did for pretty much the entire latter half of the 20th century.
As we’ve been seeing, it’s devastatingly effective.
Yeah, it sucks, but we kinda have it coming, don't we?
The total hubris that our government has shown historically is astounding. Worse, for them to think they could escape, or in any way actually control, the consequences. I mean sure, rich sociopaths are having a grand time; but this shit storm is just getting started.
Well I’m not american, and AFAIK my country is far too small to have ever done election interference, yet we’re still seeing a massive surge in far right parties due to Russian and Chinese interference.
This isn’t a tit for tat situation.
