    It is standard operating procedure with Russian propaganda to create and support the spread of convenient (for them) narratives even tho those narratives may be outlandish in their deceitfulness. Our current alt-rightish govt seems to pick up tactics from the Russians.

    What I don’t get, is what is up with Hillary claiming Tulsi Gappart is a Russian asset?  If Tulsi is, then Hillary should present clear evidence if she is going to assert it.  If she is doing it as a propaganda deceit, that has no basis in reality, then still, “why?”, because Gappert is hardly registering so far in the polls.

    Anyway, if we progressives stoop to that tactic of making up and promoting conspiracy theories as truth, then we are becoming like our adversaries in one of the most despicable ways.  It’s like Frodo putting on the ring of power.  Sure it makes him invisible, but it also makes him vulnerable to the decadent and evil power of the ring.

    So I repeat, what’s up with this Hillary v Tulsi dust up?  I don’t get it.
