      Saying one thing is happening doesn’t make it mutually exclusive for other things to be happening.

          You’re never confused because you let your CIA handbook do all the thinking for you. Everyone you disagree with is apparently a tankie. The word has lost all meaning (if it even had one beyond bashing leftists in the first place).

        The person I responded to said, and I quote, “if anything fucky is going on rn, my default is that Russia is behind it.”

      Absolutely not. But I feel that the strategy has changed. Compared to some years/decades ago, when you could pinpoint coups to the CIA, the West seems to be more interested in stability than turmoil. I might also be totally wrong though. With so much going on it’s easy to lose track.
