No, no they weren't. Which make the whole drama even more objectively silly.
For the record I have no doubt the Russians do engage in covert activities not in the best interests of the U.S. But these straw grasping dramas have gotten tiresome.
- brohoolio 9y agoYou clearly don't know my in-laws or parents. By the time the election was over they had bought into pizzagate. They are the perfect demographic to target. No ad blockers, leaning towards Bernie but kind of didn't relate to Hillary. You only needed to convince a fraction of the people to either not vote or vote for Trump. The best part is you could target them by trying all sorts of ads until you found one that clicked then have it go viral. I'm waiting for the Mueller probe but I fear the worst.
- unholythree 9y agoI'm not sure. I honestly don't know if the assessment in the article is correct, but it seems to me the objective of a project like this isn't to change any minds but harden existing postions and prevent compromise. The impression I got was that the writer argues the Russian's goal in this operation was encourage more extreme political views in order to divide the American people and weaken national unity.
