The whole russia conspiracy aspect of contemporary liberalism actually matters, because it reveals the extent to which American liberals are incapable of reconciling themselves to the white supremacist reality of United States. Faced with a president that openly embraces and flirts with white supremacy, liberals only response is “we americans cant possibly have been the ones to do this, it has to be an external force” which is really emblematic of liberalism’s inability to account for the violence and injustice which it is founded on.
In the 90's The Simpson's predicted, or rather warned us, in a joking way, that Donald Trump would be president. They were mocking both our culture, and our political system, at the time. Neither have changed.
But sure, blame the Russians.
“Beavis and Butthead Do Christmas”
I wanna see a cage match between Bush's team, Colin Powell, Rumsfeld, Ashcroft, Condoleeza Rice, Cheney, and W himself VS. Trump, Pence, Spicer, Kelleyanne Conway, Bannon, Betsy Devos, Jeff Sessions, Paul Ryan, and throw in Ivanka and the Trump boys, Beavis & Butthead. I know what you're thinking... Trump's group has way more people. Ok... Throw in General Schwarzkopf on W's team for good measure.
