Russia tampering in the election isn’t a conspiracy theory. It is a well reported fact.

The text of lolc's comment says "the conspiracy theory that the Russian state falsified votes"

Can you say more specifically where your link covers that, I didn't see it.

The dismissive phrase "conspiracy theory" implies the conspiracy to interfere with the election is in doubt. Others think that it's reasonably well established, and I think the link was to support that.

The lack of proof so far that votes were falsified is a separate issue, but given the existence of the conspiracy, it's unclear why one would rule it out.
