> You know what is terrifying? That upon learning about Russia having a major hand in Western election, nothing concrete was done.

I don't think that's entirely fair. There's been no political route open to prosecuting anyone for the above, but there's been plenty of concrete actions. Western opposition to Russia has increased substantially in recent years.

Would we have been as vigorous in our support for Ukraine and eager to supply weapons and all the other things if Russia hadn't been pulling off all these shenanigans? It probably had an effect and Russia is certainly facing consequences.

Western intelligence has also been a lot more proactive in combatting Russian misinformation.
