If you believe "Russia-hacked-the-election" you are an idiot. Not sure if there is genuine debate in this sub about that or if it has just been inundated with shills (most likely the latter).

The entire premise of the Russia-hysteria is that they "hacked" the DNC/Podesta and gave the emails to Wikileaks. There has been no evidence presented from the Intelligence Community to support this claim. ZERO. This is the same Intelligence Community that sold us the Gulf of Tonkin Affair, the Nayirah Testimony, the claim of WMDs. If Russia did not "hack" the DNC then all you got is Trump and company having favorable positions/associations towards Russia.

These associations may be sketchy but they do not warrant the level of increasing hysteria we have seen from the MSM.

In my opinion this is a media/deep state campaign to impeach Trump, to feed the military-industrial complex and manufacture consent for further escalation with Russia directly/through proxy wars like Syria, and to divert attention away from the corruption of the DNC.
There are many more points to be made but I will stick to the simple fact that there has been no evidence produced that proves Russia "hacked" the DNC.

I will most likely be accused of being a shill for Russia or Trump. I support neither of them. I read primarily from independent progressive publications and they have been providing some very sane analysis of this hysteria. If you want to do some further reading on this topic/have links to red-pill your friends and family:

Well, depending on context, you'd be correct.

More manufactured news. Remember what that one guy say, you are not allowed to look at the leaks only media can.

Uh, ok. This is basically exactly what the IC is saying happened and pretty much accepted by both sides of the aisle. Now, did it stop you from hitting the Trump button in the voting booth, probably not...did it influence others that might have been on the fence? maybe.

There is a reason the FBI has an investigation..and that is it. Russian meddled into our election and it has to be looked into. I'm not even saying at this point that Trump is all wrapped into it and colluded like a mofo. But it absolutely has to be investigated.

Just say that Russia came in and changed the votes in swing states. You know damn well that is what you actually believe

I love licking your salty, salty, salty tears and having your ilk go off the deep end creating some nonsense theory about why your candidate lost. No surprise you come from Austin - everyone there is fricking nuts.

Another user who actually thinks votes were changed

Surprised you even show your face around here anymore with your non stop predictions that Trump had no chance. Oh wait, he would have won but Russia changed the vote tallies in swing states. That's right.

They have provided zero evidence. Do you not think they could find something to declassify to reassure us? All we have is them saying "trust us, we're honest, we promise."

Sorry, but I don't blindly believe in spooks who's job it is to lie and deceive. Give us some proof or STFU.

Coming from the guy who is crying enough to start a thread on the subject. Nice. What are you 12?

I'm from South Louisiana, about as Republican country as you can get. Sorry I actually have an open mind and am capable of critical thinking. And Austin is fricking awesome dipshit...there is a reason everyone and their mother is moving here.
