If you're American, aren't you supposed to be for democracy? I understand your point about kompromat... But shoudn't the Russian people be the ones dealing with gay rights, poisoning journalists, illiberal government, and shouldn't the Europeans be the ones dealing with Ukraine? Why do you go around giving your opinion about other people's countries? Mind your business!

Hard to have a democracy when journalists are poisoned, their companies leaned on/threated/had their licenses revoked by the state, and the main election opponent to the Prime Minister thrown in jail.

Still none of your business. You get upset when someone interferes with you, but think it's ok interefering? Such hypocrisy.

I don't get it. The original question asked "why don't Americans like Russia" and I replied with reasons why I / other Americans don't like Russia. I didn't say anything about interfering.

If you asked me why I didn't like, say, the movie "Dunkirk", and then I told you why I didn't like it, it would be really odd to reply that it's not my business.
