I wrote a thread couple of weeks ago about how the purpose of Russian psyops is to convince =you= that democracy doesn't work, and that =no one= in government is interested in fixing it.

Here's an example.

And two more low-follower commenters saying almost precisely the same thing.

Almost as if they're all working in the same room.

The repetitiveness of the argument is telling.

The point they're all trying to make is that it's useless to vote for the only party that can stop fascist Republicans.

They want YOU to lose hope.

Here's one arguing that since it's simple to break things, creating solutions should be simple too.

See how the psyops works?
