My favorite line: "“The task wasn’t to support Trump,” one of the factory’s employees told RBC. “We raised social issues and other problems that already existed in the US, and tried to shine as bright a light as possible on them.” The employee said that because Clinton was part of the current regime, she was also a target."

One wonders how much of this is still going on - both the disinformation campaign, and the paying US activists. In fact, it could explain a fair amount about why things have been so weird lately...
