There is a huge divergence in understanding of the purport of recent events, starting with the Wikileaks release of DNC emails in 2016, and continuing through to Hunter Biden's laptop
One camp believes or suspects that Russia is more of a useful bugbear and scapegoat for certain political factions in the US, used cynically as FUD to manipulate public perceptions, than something to be so worried about
The other believes in good faith that Russia is a dangerous and sophisticated adversary with assets in the highest levels of the US government, and finds the first camp to be incomprehensibly obtuse at best
It's difficult for these 2 camps to communicate effectively for some reason
