Russiagate disinformation isn't just paranoid & deranged, it's racist. Here @DanaBashCNN asks @AdamSchiff whether "Russia is trying to fuel" Black Lives Matter protests. Schiff responds that Russia "exploited" BLM in 2016 & may now be "aggravating these tensions in our cities."

Even if Russians were trying to "fuel" something, how contemptuous & racist do you have to be to think BLM could be manipulated by social media memes?

It's Russiagaters who are in fact exploiting BLM to fear-monger about Russia & deflect from systemic US racism & dysfunction.

If Democrats are serious about fighting racism, maybe they shouldn't push insanely racist & moronic conspiracy theories about BLM protesters being "exploited" by Russia to aggravate "tensions in our cities."
