I'll make a prediction. If Bernie wins the nomination, Trump will win.
Why?
Simple, Bernie won't get the support from either the moderate Democrats or the republican defectors.
That's why Putin is supporting Bernie. It's not rocket science, it's politics.
Ok but last time you said this:
Not sure how that makes him an easy target.
Simple the Russians are setting him up. For example, Russian trolls pretending to be "Bernie Bros" generating outrage.
It was "simple" both times, but I find it kinda confusing tbh. Is Putin setting him up by pretending to support him or is he actually supporting him? Is he doing both? Putin is a master multitasker.
So says the guy who claims Russia wasn't involved in the cold war.
Russian groups play all sides at the same time. That's how it works. Didn't you follow the Cambridge Analytica / Facebook scandal that led to Trump and Brexit in the first place.
I never said Russia wasn't involved in the Cold War you genius, it was the opposite, you simply missed the point spectacularly.
It's hilarious how you pretend you can't see the massive contradiction between the two posts. According to you they're both setting him up (so their support hurts him), but also they are actually supporting him because they want him to win the nomination (so their support helps him). It doesn't make any sense, you're just looking for a way to make him look bad and shoehorn the whole thing into your narrative of Putin being responsible for literally everything that happens in the world.
Here you go...
Americans are indeed gullible. They believed Russia was pulling the strings behind everything during the Cold War. They were wrong. And now they believe it again.
If you still don't understand how the Russians are operating, I'd suggest you go and read the Mueller Report, and the Court filings for chapter and verse.
There are numerous examples of Russian run groups supporting BLM, and white power groups, as well as pretending to be islamic or pro-immigrant, at the same time anti-immigrant and anti-islamic.
Sorry if you are still too stupid to understand, even after I've explained it multiple times.
Because the Cold War was going on with Russia, the US government was trying to deflect everything to Russian interference. It's pretty much universally accepted that this happened and that it was wrong. It's that simple, I wasn't saying the Cold War wasn't happening you brain genius.
The Mueller report? The report that you anticipated for so long, and was definitely gonna bring Trump down but ended up just being the greatest blue balling in recent history? Very little that was new came out of that thing, it doesn't really say anything about your argument here. But
You really should calm down because you sound like a QAnon person. The confirmation bias is insane, you're contradicting yourself with every second post. Start by engaging with actual material politics instead of making up weird Putin fanfic.
There is a much simpler explanation for all that which is coherent and doesn't rely on russophobia and insane conspiracy theories. Russia had some interference in the 2016 US elections, which is to be expected and not a new thing at all between superpowers. The US itself has influence over elections in many countries, and up to a couple decades ago it was practically installing puppet governments in Russia (not a secret, there is literally front pages in US media bragging about it, but people forgot I guess, it actually partly led to Putin because Putin promised to quit the experiments of the puppet governments and bring stability). That interference has been blown way out of proportion by the media. Why? Well, partly because the Democrats used it to explain away their defeat. But also because it's a useful scapegoat.
It's something that happens in literally every society in history. In every society there are internal divisions and opposing interests. The master and the slave don't share the same interests. Neither do the boss and the employee, the banker and the loan borrower, the immigrant and the nationalist, the homeless and the landlord. At every society one of the poles is powerful and the other isn't. The powerful pole of the contradiction will almost always attempt to keep things stable and not push things further to the side of the less powerful pole. Stability is good for the powerful pole. That's the whole point of conservatism. The best way to preserve things as they are is if you reduce the intensity of the conflict of interests that is going on, because conflict brings instability. The contradictions in the US (and not just the US but globally) were becoming more and more intense, particularly after the Great Recession shook things up. What better way to reduce conflict than to pretend like the division doesn't even exist? That's the function of Russia, it's an evil external agent that threatens "unity". All those divisions? They're fake. Everyone has the same interests. Russia is responsible for convincing you the division is there in the first place. It's not remotely new, during the Cold War pretty much every even slightly subversive movement in the US was accused to be the fault of the USSR. The civil rights movement? Russians are behind it. Hippies? Yep, it's the Russians again. Feminism? You guessed it. Socialist politicians? Definitely the Russians. Movies challenging the status quo? Of course it's the Russians, we gotta purge Hollywood! It's always the Russians. There are even headlines accusing JFK or LBJ or whatever of being Russian plants.
The media is always ready to prop these accusations up. Why? Because the owners of the media belong to the powerful pole, so it's in their interests to try to influence people to believe some evil external entity is interfering with unity (unity essentially meaning not antagonising the currently powerful pole), and that all the conflicts are the result of shady foreign puppeteering instead of inherent contradictions and divisions in society. That's why the Russia narrative is blown out of proportion so much and that's what induced all the weird and contradictory allegations against Sanders. It's not unique to the US, it happens literally everywhere all the time. No baseless conspiracy theories and incoherent plots required.
