I never understood the uproar with Russia and the election. It just seems so hippocritical. Is there any valid reason to be upset when someone does it to us when we do it to others all the time?
- Anderkent 9y agoJust being hypocritical doesn't mean it's wrong.
- mcphage 9y agoIf you’re upset about us doing it because it’s wrong, why wouldn’t you also be upset when it’s done to us? It doesn’t magically not become wrong, just like if you murdered a murderer, it doesn’t magically get you out of jail.
