I often wonder how much of this stuff is driven by Russian and Chinese psyops trying to undermine western societies.

There is pretty strong evidence for it. Russia has been found funding right wing content creators on YouTube and they boost extremists posts on Facebook, insta tiktok snd twitter. I assume theyre also funding creators on there as well.

Let's not erase our history. This is who we were not so long ago. It's still who a significant percentage of us are. Our job is to not let them gain power and undo the progress made.
