The same way we meddle in theirs. Radio Freedom was used like they used social media.

By hacking ballot boxes that are not even connected to the internet and by hacking the DNC into saying incredibly stupid shit so that Seth Rich can leak the e-mails
Russia literally hacked the election by buying a few facebook ads which hacked right into people's brains and forced them to vote for the candidate they preferred: Hillary.. I mean Trump.

they promised me 10 shekels goy

The media seem to be implying that the mere act of disinfo / propaganda is enough to trick the dumb idiots of America into voting for the candidate russia backs.
As if none of us could form our own opinions, tell fact from fiction, do our own research, or keep from being swayed from moment to moment.

It'd be insulting if it weren't true.

Youtube and Google should be legally obligated to release their algorithms
its abundantly clear "non partisan" companies, who are probably collecting Tax Breaks, have intervened more then any Russians

Russia hacked the weather. Holy shit it's so hot I can't stop sweating. I am sitting with my windows open in my underwear and I still can't stop sweating. FUCK DRUMPF AND FUCK RUSSIA.

I post my rarest pepes on Jow Forums and shitposted on twitter. I guess this kills burger democracy.

people are retarded and dont understand how the internet or tech works in general. people deserve to lose their minds if they think this shit is even remotely possible or reality.

duhhhh what time is it in moscow comrade?

duhhhh i know, lets hack the voter rolls and delete enough dem voter registrations to make 5 swing states all go for trump by the same 1% margin, that way we dont need to touch the ballots!

By posting memes on kikebook.

Except the stuff they supposedly hacked wasn't even disinformation. If the hacking is true all they did was provide helpful information to voters about Hillary wanting open borders and hating Catholics.

It would be possible to hack voting machines if it weren't for the fact every county uses a different voting method, any fucking idiot can make a voting machine and therefore every official with power over the budget for voting machines makes sure their brother in law's voting booth machine gets the contract, and not every county even uses electronic voting machines.

>posting memes and propaganda is now "hacking"

Trump is a pathetic Hyper-Boomer posting his impotent threats in ALL CAPZ.

they cracked the firewall duhh?!??

What makes it easy is that no one ever clearly states what ''this'' even is. It's purposely left vague so that everyone can invent their own version of events in their mind.
If they came out and flat out said that the election was hacked, that the votes were turned from Hillary to Trump, people wouldn't believe that, it would be fucking ridiculous and they would ask for a simple recount to check if the votes were correct.

It's not that people are retarded and illiterate, it's that they are given a very vague story that fits the narrative that they like, and they are told to fill the gaps themselves.
If someone is dumb and tech illiterate, they might believe that Russia literally hacked the ballots. If someone is a bit smarter and not as tech illiterate, they might think that Russia was responsible for DNC e-mails getting leaked which resulted in Dems losing a lot of votes.

These people may be fucking idiots, but if there is one thing they're great at, it's propaganda. This is top tier propaganda.

The Russian bride I bought withheld pussy until I agreed to vote for Trump.

there is a runoff election tomorrow. Help me Ivan, who am I supposed to vote for again?

They used the @TEN_GOP account to tweet out unfair simple truths. like "Rachel Maddow looks like a man". This caused 60 Million voters to change their vote from Hillary to Trump..

Fanning the flames of discontent, that is all. They never really needed to do much outside of that because shit was already frayed as it was.

Hacking the DNC for dirt, finding their "fuck bernie" strategy, and then releasing that information at the most damaging time before the election.
Also trolling facebook with fake meme pages and misinformation which we can do all by ourselves, but is meddlinging in the loosest definition.

Damn you Ivan, foiling the election with truth bombs. THIS MEANS WAR

wtf I love Russian meddling now

wait a second, I thought that server was the one someone used a zip drive to copy files.

unironically this

I would say its extremely improbable. The USA is the most powerful country in the world with the best intelligence agencies and tech at their disposal. The idea Russia could pull off anything without setting off alarm bells is laughable. The idea that Obama and Clinton did not know something was up was laughable. Any attempts to interfere were most likely easily known about and allowed because they did not want any investigations into the election because the Dems were up to shady shit much worse that would have been caught.

If anything the Russians were just operating to collect data and espionage as they always do and maybe try to change peoples opinions but they would not act in any overt way to change the results of the election and most likely were largely apathetic to the results.

They meddled mate.
They just had negligible effect.
But it wasn't zero.
THEREFORE THEY MEDDLED!!!!!!

That's the part that bugs me to no end. Okay I get that the Russians bought facebook ads, but what exactly makes that anything other than par for the course for everyone since the end of WW2. Propaganda isn't fundamentally worse when it's on social media than it is when it's on radio or print. I mean shit, we allowed CPUSA to remain a thing despite them getting their marching orders from Stalin in exposing the various Trots around the country.

I just don't get how this is any different, we've been dancing this tune for decades and all of a sudden we're complaining about the music.

did you just meddle on this thread aussie? That does it, send in the emus!

but if your votes are cast in paper, how come russia hacked it? did they sneak in a million false/illegal votes, like the dems do? or this "meddling" is from shitposters?

by shitposting. Not in a good way either, like posting memes only boomers would like.

More like this:
>DNC server not available to FBI for investigation
>Weiner Laptop discovered
>Comey reopens Investigation.
>Uranium One

Sounds like the Russians ARE the DNC and Shadow Govt.

They can't and didn't. Snowden said it is impossible. Even Obama said it isn't possible.

it is electronic in my state, but not hooked to the internet

I mean assuming you browse Jow Forums unironically, you are already susceptible to right wing propaganda.

>Hacking the DNC for dirt, finding their "fuck bernie" strategy
That was all Seth Rich though, who was fucking killed.
I have never heard anyone on the mainstream left even claim that Russia hacked those DNC e-mails, probably because no one wants to deal with that can of worms and talk about how a Bernie supporter leaked them and got murdered for it.

Checked, Comrade

The kike media said Russia hacked our elections, it must be true! Derrrr, I've got a double digit IQ.

They can't. They just use russia as a cover up to make it seem like there's not a large number of right wingers or conservatives out there. aka pretending the silent majority doesn't exist

People actually thinked this happened

Fund politicans and put out propaganda.

You must because even russian politicians say they did.

The left hasn't changed their tune over the last year and a half. Here's STILL what they claim is evidence Russia "meddles in the election.
1. Russians paid for ads on Kikebook and probably for some shitposting. This is par for the course propaganda. Every country does this shit. Additionally, of the ads on Facebook, some were pro-Hillary.
2. DNC emails were leaked. Not faked, leaked. The DNC and Killary were and still are doing retarded, suspicious and outright illegal shit and they got caught. Theres no evidence the leak was from foreign agents either, given the time it took for the files to be transferred indicates it was done locally. His name was Seth Rich and they killed him for it.
Basically Russia did nothing we don't also do and the DNC is still just salty people found out about 1/100th of their corruption. Even if you're a raving leftist lunatic who thinks the leak counts as meddling, go look at the polling data before and after the leaks - the opinion toward Hillary remained virtually unchanged, same with Comey. Russia didn't sabotage Hilldawgs campaign, Hillary was an unelectable trash fire of a candidate and the average american could smell the sulfur from her hooves half the country away.

>be russian shill
>during election keep shilling against hillary because she is likely the next president
>want people to despise her once she gets elected
>oh fuck Trump won
>looks like these dumb american pigs are blaming us
>looks like it's dividing them and making people distrust their leadership while making us look very strong
>hahahaha yes it was our fault, your entire country is now controlled by us

Don't underestimate the power of memes.

[ ] Hack voting machines, which people have complained about being insecure since Bush got elected
[x] Shitpost on facebook

The worst thing is, the media constantly shilling about Russian meddling plays right into Putin's hands. The idea that Russia can interfere in the US election means Russia comes across as a Great Power that they so desperately want to be.
It all stems from Russian Foreign Policy and Security concepts explicitly stating the importance of information warfare

me and my fellow patriotic dems are tired of these ruskie meddlers, we need strict voter id requirements.

You mean Jow Forums = Russia ?

Run facebook ads for old dumb people to get all riled up about how each candidate is a shitty person.

Whoever wins there are people all ginned up and angery.

That's the goal. If you want to actually pick a winner you need to put individuals in the ballot stations and have enough guard the boxes before transport so they can replace the ballots before they ship off to a centralized location to be counted for the county.

Or staff the offloading into the county office to count, have feasible yet favorable percentage at enough offices to make sure candidate wins.

Lots of risk, hard to make succeed. Requires lots of people with US IDs. Can't get that kind of collaboration these days sans cold war.

They could always send a few million Russians on a early November vacation to strategic American destinations. They could even make those vacations semi-permanent for those sweet remittance bucks. Best part, only racist would complain about the operation.

Basically, emails were leaked that showed Hillary and her team doing suspicious and illegal stuff. So, better blame it on someone else!

Kill yourself jew

Trump agrees they meddled in the election. The press secretary even cleared it up.
