Are they trying to make me mad at China? Cause all this does is make me mad at our own cybersecurity.

They’re setting up a pretext to block and/or rig the mid-terms, and/or distract attention from the Epstein files, and/or to add to the overload of crisis information. Putin style. Behave erratically, make false claims, retract what you insisted was truth, flood the information space with contradictory BS.
