When all else fails - blame the Russians! Brilliant!
Everybody and everything has Russian ties of some sort, tis a big country.
- this is just a lazy false equivalence and ignores the evidence presented in the article.
- Except, pretty much anything negative that happened in the last 15 years (especially tied to social media) if you look into it Russia always seems to be involved.
  I recommend reading: "Road to Unfreedom: Russia, Europe, America" by historian Timothy Snyder.
  
  And what part of those "negative things" does not have USA involved? :)
- Everyone and everything divisive, yes.
  Because russia loves sowing chaos.
