This again. No examples, just spin. I'm not sure what is going on in Russia regarding COVID, but I do remember an early full closure of borders with China, now they close entry to all foreign nationals, they are building emergency hospitals and so on.

It seems they are taking this threat at least somewhat seriously.

These people think we are stupid so they can continue to push this crap forever. Maybe they are right.

This is ridiculous. Oriental Review and Geopolitica are niche blogs with a very small reach. We are not talking about Moon of Alabama or Unz Review size here, they are really small.

How is the fact that they will post articles with all sorts of differing and not very well thought of opinions about the corona virus any indication that a Russian government campaign is going on?

You go all "there you go buddy" like you are Jordan Peterson and I'm Cathy Newman, but all there is in that article is hot air. They have a crapton of links to their own pages, but what else is there besides a couple of barflies blogs? They even talk about Dugin! Dugin!! All that is missing is a reference to Potemkin villages.
