I think future historians will also come to the conclusion that a large factor contributing to the current rise of fascism in Western democracies was a very successful hybrid war effort by Putin's Russia.
I mean it's already pretty obvious that European and US fascists have very close ties to Russian agents. Putin is waging a global digital war - combining old propaganda techniques with social media echo chambers - and we're losing hard right now.
Oh yes, I absolutely agree, and the biggest reason Russians have been so successful with their disinformation campaign is the internet.
