Edit: For context, @db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com discovered that the developer of Tesseract had discretely banned numerous instances and disguised it as a server error. This included more heavily leftist instances, but also blahaj.zone. More recently, it was discovered that they had also been suppressing individual users, phrases, and communities that criticize power tripping on fedi.
Needless to say, I implore non blahaj.zone users to drop the Tesseract client (support for the client has already been dropped for blahaj). So called “liberals” like this who call out “extremism on both sides” are an insult to the values they claim to be upholding.
The american democratic party blamed russia for their loss in 2016, and then tried to do a neuveau red scare instead of learning anything about appealing to voters during an election.
It broke a lot of people’s brains now american political weirdos go rabbid whenever they hear anyone mention russia. Sorry you had to deal with that.
Russia was responsible in part for Trump winning in 2016. The Mueller report confirmed this. Trump himself just released information the other day that also confirmed this, and Russian interference in 20 and 24.
Everyone who knew about this in 2016 and was in a position to act on that information didn’t consider it actionable.

There was a time when information about election interference is actionable and that is between the election and and the winner being sworn in. There were many in positions of power in the government who claimed to know about this at the time, and chose to do nothing about it at the time.
Don’t be a bigot. And this isn’t a political community go away.
So bad faith and an idiot, bold combo.
Except Mueller and other investigations showed that Russia did try to influence elections to help trump, did work with the campaign and it actually had impact. That’s why so many kettle for indicted. He only refused to investigate whether trump new anything about that, but after pardons and other things he did I think the answer is very clear.
