    Dude I am European, and definitely not Republican,

    Russia is not part of Europe, so if you’re actually from Europe, learn to stay in your lane and not try to influence a foreign election, if you are Russian, go fuck yourself and stop trying to influence a foreign election.

        Posting messages that make progressive people apathetic about the state of the electoral system right before an election, is literally equivalent to actively campaigning for the less progressive option. It is straight up an anti-democratic tactic frequently used by Republicans to lower democratic voter turnout.

          “Not European” is classic race science line against Slavs in general, including but not exclusively Russians. The barbaric Asiatic hordes, so the line goes. Liberals have been eating up these recycled ancient racist talking points to apply to Russians.

          You could always just ask questions about a topic you are unfamiliar with instead of making things up.

            Nope. It’s a factual statement since Russia invaded Europe, raped and murdered its citizens en masse, and chose to remove itself from the world order, Europe, and being a nation deserving of anything other than disgust and distain.

              Nope.

              Yep.

              It’s a factual statement since Russia invaded Europe

              Oh? When?

              raped and murdered its citizens en masse

              When?

              and chose to remove itself from the world order

              What world order, and how? When you say “removed itself”, does that mean it officially withdree from associations or trade deals or norms of finance? Or are you using roundabiut language to describe others attempting to remove Russia from the “world order”, whatever that may be in your mind?

              Europe

              ???

              and being a nation deserving of anything other than disgust and distain.

              I suppose you believe that if your hate is strong enough you can pretend I didn’t just tell you a bunch of stuff about the race science you are echoing.
