A Guide to Understanding the Hoax of the Century

It’s hard to take seriously an article with nonsense like this in it:

“First Russia tried to suppress the U.S.-backed Euromaidan movement in Ukraine”

A Russian canard that Ukrainians don’t have agency.

The rest of the article is more breathless sensationalism masquerading as investigative journalism. Like this nonsense:

“Trump also threatened the business interests of the most powerful sectors of society. It was the latter offense, rather than his putative racism or flagrant un-presidentialness, that sent the ruling class into a state of apoplexy.”

The ruling class? Is this ye olde Pravda?

The article is indeed disappointingly sensationalist, but it was at least nice to see someone else who’s infuriated by “misinformation” push.

You can't get more Maddow-watching, Mueller report thumping than me, and ive never heard of this Hamilton 68 thing. This seems like some right wing echo chamber stuff. For a documenting of what Russia actually did, refer to the Mueller report.

Dont you find it somewhat curious that you, in your echochamber of Maddow/Mueller, have not heard of this very real thing contrary to what you would like to believe is true?

And when confronted with information that taints your view, you advise the reports of the very people who would keep you from knowledge of that information.

As I understand it, it was the source for most of the reporting on “Russian bots” in 2017-18.

Hamilton 68 apparently advertises itself here, a project of the German Marshall Fund. I don't know what any of this is, but it looks similar to Soros' global democracy campaign, so your opinion of one will likely resemble the other.

Tablet Magazine was originally a Jewish culture magazine that morphed into Trump-wing apologia outfit.
