    From the article:

    *One of the inauthentic videos, which Microsoft said had been viewed millions of times, claimed to show Harris supporters attacking an attendee of a Donald Trump rally. Another video falsely claimed that Harris paralyzed a young girl in a 2011 hit-and-run accident. Russian operatives promoted the latter story through a website pretending to be a local San Francisco media outlet, Microsoft researchers said.*

    Not surprising since Russians and Putin supports Trump and Vance, the Pro-Russia US presidential and vice presidential candidate.

  3. Honestly I’m not taking any shit from Americans on reddit if Trump get’s a second term, it’s on your people overall if they fall for his, Musk, and Putin’s puppetry.

    Actually insane that he’s even running, let alone that it’s close in any way, shape, or form.

    Whatever America’s enemy is doing (like supporting one of its candidates), it is safe to assume it is not to America’s benefit.

  5. I know how to fix this. Give ukraine access to long range weapons along with a list of locations of people responsible for this.

    What? Are they going to AI her taking candy from a baby. Seriously, if I saw a crazy video of Harris climbing a tree and snatching baby birds from a nest to glue onto a hoola hoop, I might second guess the video. Oh yeah by the way Russia, you have to make sure these fake videos are worse than what Trump has done, that is hard to do.

  7. Awesome. I look forward to seeing these while glancing over the shoulders of my coworkers in the break room.

    All social media in America should be shutdown until after the election. The platforms are infiltrated by foreign entities.

  9. Can we just say fuck it, and declare war? Fuck Putin, bomb his fucking mansion into the next life already.

    At this point, they’re just throwing crap up against the wall to see what sticks.

    I expect it to become even more deranged in the coming months.

  11. Those pesky and inept Russians are at it again. Maybe they should concentrate on their own shitty military before worrying about our elections.

    So she didn’t arrest a mother of a hospitalized child with sickle cell disease for missing classes?

  13. None of it matters?

    In normal times a pro Russia alliance would be political death … now a day you have a lot of the GOP who consider “Russia, a country of true freedom and success”, with many choosing Putin over a democratic selected leader (basically Putin vs Biden)
