it honestly feels like a psyop at this point. in russia there was a particular focus on making people "apolitical", which is a different direction but still was focused on reducing opposition turnout.

    Read Aleksandr Dugin book and it all makes sense. It's part of the geopolitical playbook.

    Sowing Social Division: The book explicitly directs Russian operatives to introduce "geopolitical disorder" inside the U.S. by fueling racial, social, and religious polarization.

    Exploiting the Democratic Process: While it doesn't give a step-by-step guide to voter suppression, it encourages the promotion of isolationist and extremist political groups to break down faith in public institutions, media, and the democratic process itself.
