  • Well, sure. I’m not saying that Russians didn’t have a nefarious reason to invite her there. It’s entirely possible and maybe even likely that they did it because they saw a third party candidate as a useful tool to sow some sort of election discord in the US. But that claim would be entirely different than the claim that Jill Stein did it because she’s an asset or that this was her idea or purpose for being there. I’m disputing the latter, not the former, because her attending a gala for RT is not evidence of collusion and this was the implication being made. I can find all sorts of pictures online of Hillary Clinton and other politicians having dinners with Trump or Putin, but that doesn’t mean the photos are evidence that they were in collusion with either of them.






  • Casual lemm.ee-er here and please don’t lump us into the China and Russia hating club. I’m pro China and also try to analyze the situation in Russia from a materialist perspective. We’re not all weird anti-China/Russia reddit-pilled users, I just signed up with that instance when I was first discovering Lemmy and liked their generally “neutral” stance on defederating. There are dozens of us, dozens!
