I have no idea why you are getting downvoted, as there is a lot of good evidence supporting your position. The book "Active Measures: The Secret History of Disinformation and Political Warfare" by Thomas Rid spends a great deal of time talking about this. I think the evidence so far shows that the power station attacks are likely linked to loosely affiliated white supremacist groups. It is unknown if Russia is funding them, but if you recall, Russia was linked to several secessionist groups in the US, with the head of the California group eventually moving to Russia.

Curious, how can you tell that there are downvotes? I’m using https://news.ycombinator.com/ And don’t see anything in the UI about votes, either up or down.

The comment is deleted, did you figure out how? I'd like to know too.

Sorry for the confusion. The comment was at zero when I replied, and was upvoted later.
