US intelligence report alleging Russia election interference shared with 100 countries

The United States on Friday released a U.S. intelligence assessment sent to more than 100 countries that found Moscow is using spies, social media and Russian state-run media to erode public faith in the integrity of democratic elections worldwide.
"This is a global phenomenon," said the assessment. "Our information indicates that senior Russian government officials, including the Kremlin, see value in this type of influence operation and perceive it to be effective."
A senior State Department official, briefing reporters on condition of anonymity, said that Russia was encouraged to intensify its election influence operations by its success in amplifying disinformation about the 2020 U.S. election and the COVID-19 pandemic.

Jesus' statement, "Let he who is without fault cast the first stone" (John 8:7), the similar parable of the beam in the eye (Matthew 7:3) and proverbs based on it such as "He who sits in a glass house should not throw stones" are sometimes compared to whataboutism.
Even Jesus gets this. Why can’t you?

I'm actually big on forgiveness for those who are honest and earnest about redemption.
Having said that, when you say this to someone ...
Fine. Carry on with the foreign hate
That's going to get a response, from anyone who's on the receiving end of it.
Oh, and for the record, my wife is a foreigner, born and raised in another country. So hating foreigners is really not my thing.
How did this become about you?

I wasn't replying to the original article, I was replying to your comment...
Fine. Carry on with the foreign hate
... concerning your earlier comment to me in the form of a question...
Even Jesus gets this. Why can’t you?

Didn’t you already do that?
Moving the goal posts.
Okay so now your are making a counter point. You're saying hypocrisy invalidates A point. You're saying that if I live in a country that does shitty things that I can't criticize shitty things another country has done?
But countries aren't people. They're closer to corporations. I can criticize Pepsi while working at Coke. I don't give a shit about either countries or corps beyond the people they employ
It worked. The Russians won again.
Nah, you won. I can't even remember what the original article was about now.
Can we at least agree that the US and Russia are both police states, and that those are two bad things that need to change?
