why is this being downvoted?

The investigation hasn't been completed yet, as far as I know, so relying on unnamed "sources" seems like gossip rather than anything concrete.

Edit: Also, what do you mean downvoted? Where are you seeing the downvotes?

I will say that, for myself, I would like to see more evidence than simply anonymous chatter. I was just reading something where officials said the investigation was still ongoing and they couldn't reach any conclusions yet. So where are these claims coming from and what changed?

Because this subreddit is full of pro-Russia Redditors.

It'd be nice to have more than just anonymous "sources" when the investigation apparently hasn't been completed yet.

Wanting more than anonymous sources? What are you a Russian bot?!

Idiots don't understand that you don't have to pick a side and politics are more complicated than black and white.

You're not wrong. I'm so exhausted from having to choose between US propaganda or Russian propaganda if I want a baseline news subreddit. I'm tired of dueling disinfo.

Just because they have a different option doesn’t mean their bots
