First of all, why would you want additional malfeasance? This is indefensible. It’s like saying with all the police shootings, who cares if foreign army’s are going around and shooting people. Covid made plain that psyops work extremely well. A huge amount of disinformation came that way, in addition to a domestic audience that was very happy to incorporate it. Having a mistrust of authority in the first place makes this frictionless because it means you trust whatever you read online instead of your local authorities. That makes psyops easy peasy. You can both not want foreign meddling and want to improve your local situation at the same time. Geopolitical issues are never a serial process, and they never end. There will never be a point where everyone agrees the domestic issues are now “fixed and everything is perfect” so now we can focus on the constant foreign attacks. That’s a false start. Don’t throw the baby out with the bath water. When you burn it all down you’re just left with ashes, and whatever the replacement is almost always cheaper and worse.
