‘Russiagate’ conspiracy theory in the USA

This 15 August 2019 video from the USA says about itself:

The REAL Russiagate Conspiracy

Is Russiagate the liberal QAnon?

QAnon is an extreme right conspiracy theory among supporters of Donald Trump.

Hasan Piker and Felix Biederman discuss Russiagate on Agit Prop.

The ‘Russiagate‘ conspiracy theory, promoted especially in the USA by corporate media and the right wing of the Democratic party, says that supposedly all bad things or supposedly bad things in the USA, from the Black Lives Matter movement against police brutality to Hillary Clinton losing the 2016 presidential election to Donald Trump, are caused by Russia.

In reality, Clinton lost the election because:

1. The eighteenth-century electoral college system in the USA.

2. Because Republican politicians had disenfranchised millions of, eg, African American voters.

3. Because Hillary Clinton was not an attractive alternative to Trump. Because of her Wall Street links and warmongering. She herself admitted: I lost, because I am a capitalist.

While, according to many polls, Bernie Sanders, sabotaged by the Democratic party bureaucracy, would have defeated Trump.

Trump does not represent Russia. He represents roughly half of the United States billionaire class. Blaming some Russian or other Johnny Foreigner is a lazy alternative to criticizing capitalism in the USA; and to criticizing the real crimes of Trump, like climate denial, environmental destruction for Big Oil, racism, concentration camps for immigrating, warmongering, misogyny, homophobia etc. etc.
