From my admittedly limited perspective, it doesn’t seem like you need conspiracy theories to rag on the actions and statements of the current Russian government.

I agree...however, do you think most people (or, the HN members in the search results) are able to conceptualize reality (the portion related to this topic) in a manner that does not technically fall into that category (thus invoking hypocrisy/irony/hilarity)?

Do you think they mostly & consistently have the ability (cold/natively, or even if explicitly prompted)?

I don’t know, but if they alluded to evidence that Russia had co-opted a US presidential candidate or something, yes, I’d also encourage them to present it.
"evidence" is one of the most misunderstood, weaponized, shape shifting, etc words in our language....and our language is shit, so that's saying something.
