The somewhat annoying thing that some Liberals do online where they blame Russia for everything bad that happens. It started shortly after the 2016 election when people started believing that Trump was a puppet being controlled by Putin.
If this is the most unhinged conspiracy theory they've ever heard of, they have lived a very boring life so far. This is just a bog-standard political delusion, and it doesn't even include the supernatural stuff that makes a truly unhinged conspiracy theory weird as shit.
'Some liberals' - you mean all of blueanon? Democrats, Msnbc, cnn, etc.
It's unhinged because this sort of Russophobia may very well lead to WW3 and nuclear armageddon. Also because it has no basis in fact whatsoever. It's every bit as unhinged as the 'The Jews rule the world' one.
