    There’s piles of evidence of communist spies operating in America during the cold war too, mate.

          Are you allergic to making hard statements? You accused me of mccarthyism, which involves accusing people with little to no evidence. There is evidence of 6,000+ Russian regulars in Ukraine in 2014. That’s not “dissent,” it’s an invasion. I’m not saying there weren’t genuine separatists in those regions, I’m saying it was hardly an organic movement.

            “there were Russian operatives in Ukraine, therefore all dissent is illegitimate and can be crushed with lethal force.”

            If you can’t understand how that is the same as justifying McCarthyism by saying their were communist spies in America, it’s because you’re being willfully obtuse.
