An interesting article about Russia's involvement in US conspiracy theories.

Russian intelligence, state media, and trolls under President Vladimir Putin sought to bum steer U.S. domestic reactions to Jade Helm 15, the multi-state U.S.-based military training exercise concluded September 15th. Russia has invested tens to hundreds of millions to infiltrate U.S. media markets with English language news, opinion, conspiracy, and troll content, often interlocking with the most popular U.S. conspiracy theory websites on the net.

What is propaganda? Here is an example I read when I was a kid.

There was a two car race between a car from Russia and a car from the US. It was reported that Russia finished second and the US finished next to last
