About that "Wexit" crap?

Some details were pointed out to me. They might be of some importance.

Conspiracy nuts suckered by people running real conspiracies. It's of a piece with some of that crap going on in Washington these last three or four years. Just sick and rotten enough to be real?

I was waiting to see this. I'm not surprised in the least.

Russia is causing problems in the internet as a whole with their experimenting with cutting Russia out of the internet. Personally, I'd like to see a huge DDoS attack on all of their gateway routers that would just kick them out of the internet so they can't pull shit like this. People forget Putin was a KGB officer, he wants to bring the rest of the world down to his level to legitimize himself.
