re: Anybody remember when RUssia hacked the election?

You gave that as a reason.

so you are literally now making up phantom motives to support a contention that has no proof.

...then you call it "reasonable"

All I said was that I think it's reasonable. We know Russia attempts (and succeeds) in hacking us. We know that Russia likes to meddle, for whatever reason.

You started this thread about Russia hacking. I AGREED that it's unreasonable to think they hacked the election itself. But you referred to posts that referred to the campaign hacks (or phishing if you want to be technical), and I said it was reasonable to suspect them.

I am not going around saying Russia is guilty, I'm just responding to a thread about Russia hacking.

why? because you say so?

China, NK, fricking random hackers online, all of them are behind Russia? WHy?

You didn't start a thread about China or North Korean hacking. They are also reasonable suspects, but since the candidate and party who took harder campaign stances against them was Trump's, I think their involvement is a bit less likely, especially considering the Wikileaks connection.

again you clown...if you can make the claim that nobody knows, then all actors with that ability are "reasonable"...here'a nice map of LIVE of hacking for you to ponder, clown:

Yes. The few capable and willing are more reasonable than the vast majority who lack either or both.

So that narrows it down to small percentage of the global population. And it just so happens that Russia, with their technological expertise, history, and IC focus on cyber warfare, is one of the more reasonable.

fricking imbecile.

Since I'm an imbecile for saying it's reasonable for Russia to be a suspect, that must mean it's unreasonable is the correct conclusion?

And if it's unreasonable, then present some evidence for a change rather than making strawmen, playing word games, and resorting to your unnecessary insults. You started the thread, apparently to mock those that argued Russia was behind it. I agreed with you about the election itself, but since you are going to make such a big deal for me saying that they could be behind the campaigns, then why don't you actually refute it with evidence why it's unreasonable.
