Let's differentiate between the heroic individual activists striving against all odds, versus the technologists whose market-driven decisions ensure that the activists are betrayed to their oppressive governments.
It's not so against the odds. The EU just implemented mass sanctions against Belarus and mobilised €53m to support agitators. Top politicians such as Varadkar tweet support.
If Russia so overtly threw money at organising American riots it would be front page news. There's been a year of mass unrest and yellow vest riots in France yet Marcons junta still reigns supreme.
