Care to use words to express why you think having a problem with that is laughable? Just guessing, but if you think pretending they disbanded means they don't actually exist anymore, you ought to know that a KGB agent is literally running their country now.

You can care about both issues fyi. Frankly pretending those things aren't a serious threat makes me wonder about who you are. You can't even discuss those other problems online as things are, without such bad faith actors injecting themselves into the conversation and muddying the waters.
How in the world is the KGB, an institution disbanded before HTML was created, a problem for anyone on the Internet? MS13 and ISIS are fringe examples used as boogiemen to obfuscate and distract. Anyway, the point of the laughter was the use of KGB. Is the Stasi tapping iPhones?
I’m calling it now, ISIS and MS13 aren’t chatting with your kids. Prove me wrong.
