It seems like Russia has found that unconventional forms of warfare like cyberwarfare, political espionage, and active measures are much more cost effective than pure might. Its really concerning especially because Democratic nations seem to be especially susceptible. Europe and the United States should be condemning these attacks.

Once the American people stand up to their own government's foreign election & democratic interference, we have no basis to talk about other countries doing what we've done in mass forever. USA is the biggest threat to democracy worldwide.

We're talking about Russia, not about other entities. What USA, Ghana or your local grocery store does or does not do is entirely irrelevant in the context of this discussion.

It's extremely relevant. Russia is not the only one doing this and it's continuing propaganda to not talk about the others. These are common arguments among people who believe these conspiracies, to shut down any dissent or information that could hamper the conspiracy's 'legitimacy'.

I don't understand. Which point are you making: that it is a "conspiracy" that Russia is doing it, or that Russia is not the only one doing it?
