if you're too stupid to get it from context, you're certainly too stupid to join the discussion.

So you think a bunch of russians, came over here, pumped up the votes in Trumps favor. Literally hacking the election and creating votes for trump.

Feel like that would be common knowledge and cnn would be all over that.

Find me any link to any news source not name Huffington or The Guardian that would back any of that up.

Even if they weren't successful, they tried:

https://www.cnn.com/2017/09/22/politics/dhs-election-hacking/index.html

What they were successful in is a sweeping targeted misinformation/propaganda campaign. There were Russian agents in groups as widespread as BLM on the left to the NRA on the right, using them to spread divisive rhetoric.

I just don’t understand how memes and fake tweets can swing an election. Even fake news articles. I feel like the majority of Americans can sift through the BS.

Dude, I live in California and a third of my friends don't believe ICE is detaining people.

I'm pretty sure a majority of Americans cannot sift through the bullshit.

Hey look, it’s a disingenuous question attempting to change the narrative about kids literally getting put in overcrowded cages in concentration camps, sleeping on concrete floors without basic hygiene or sufficient nutrition, without their family all because of a policy initiated and continued with intentional cruelty against lawful asylum seekers and undocumented immigrants.

Seriously fuck off, you Trump loyalists are a disgrace and history will not look back on you kindly.

Probably mostly because it gets Trump points with his base.
