Russian propaganda machine was full force in America during the 2016 election and I’m sure it still is quite active to an extent in the states. What’s the general feel for Russian propaganda in Ukraine? Are there many Russian-supporting Ukrainians? Do many of them change opinions once Russia is in their towns?

Uhh I should note that I’m quite ignorant on the subject and if my question makes you irritated - I’m sorry I don’t mean to start anything.

    To deny Russia’s propaganda involvement is to have your head burried in the sand. Id suggest checking out the Mueller report

      To pretend that Russia’s propaganda involvement plays a significant impact in US elections is contrary to the facts. I’d suggest you check out the Mueller report yourself, because it fails to show any actual substance.

      Furthermore, other countries, such as Israel, play FAR bigger role in influencing US elections. Same goes for US oligarchs and large corporations. The fact that liberals in US continue to focus on Russia, while ignoring this shows that this is not rational adult behavior.

      Finally, it’s worth noting that US itself does far greater interference in elections and politics across the globe.
