I would guess the parent intended to convey that Russia weaponizes free speech in the US via troll farms/etc for foreign influence, not that they have it domestically?

Seems like my point has gone right over everyone's head who answered...

How well has what Russia done worked? Like how loved is Russia right now in the west? How many people agree with it?

(sidenote: the russia brexit involvement has been 100% disproven. The Trump russia thing has been 100% disproven. The hunter biden laptop was not russian disinformation)

BTW how was russia's involvement in brexit disproved?

It's unproven but that's not the same

Looks more like they tried but with minor effect at most.

It's not about love for russia, it's about doubt in western science and governments.

How many people reject vaccines? How many belief the governments are controlled by a secret elite? Even flat earthers are linked to russian psyops.
