To win working-class voters — and possibly today’s election — Democrats need to attack economic elites. But the Kamala Harris campaign hasn’t consistently offered an anti-elite counter to Donald Trump’s right-wing populism.
Thanks for sharing those sources! Sorry if I gave the impression that I believe in Russiagate. I meant that it is factually true that Russia attempts to spread misinformation on the internet, and I said that to contrast my belief that Hamas does not formally conduct operations to spread misinformation, unlike Russia. I am not trying to suggest anything about whether or not Russian propaganda is effective or targeted in any specific way.
You keep posting sources for things that are unrelated to my original question. Obviously the USA is top or near top of the list of spreading propaganda online, no one in their right mind would debate that. If you have sources saying that Hamas is spreading misinformation in a way that affects the USA’s 2024 presidential election I am very interested in learning about that.
If you have sources saying that Hamas is spreading misinformation
I didn’t say that Hamas was spreading misinformation. I wrote “Hamas or Putler interweb trolls,” which you read as “Hamas [interweb trolls] or Putler interweb trolls,” but I wasn’t talking about “Hamas interweb trolls.“

Russia, like every other country, has its propaganda. Even Hamas, which does not currently control a formal Westphalian state, has its propaganda.
As for propaganda in general and misinformation in particular, the US spreads much, much, much more than Russia.
