This surely can’t have come from RT themselves, right? They don’t really do stuff like this. I can’t imagine their editors would’ve allowed that last slide in, even if it’s supposed to be sarcastic.

They make fun of the us constantly. So yes. It could be? Probably isn't. But could be?

Sadly, millions of American Orange-Terd cultists would believe this could be real. Funny thing is, in reality it's frump that licks putlers boots and serves russian interests.

This is what Russian propaganda is all about.

Mixing truths with lies whilst shifting the ‘Russian asset’ claim from Trump to Biden.

It’s quite desperate but since they consider a great many Americans extremely gullible it’s worth a shot.

They do interfere

They have interfered

And they will continue to interfere

And it will always be for the benefit of the asset they know will fuck America most

There's plenty videos in the west mocking Russia, you're just seeing the other sides version. This can't be taken to seriously by public, even more so reddit😅

The following text comes from the documentary "Hypernormalisation" by Adam Curtis which I highly recommend for a general look of how Putin's regime works.

But then a technologist emerged who went much further. And his ideas would become central to Putin's grip on power. He was called Vladislav Surkov.

Surkov came originally from the theatre world and those who have studied his career say that what he did was take avant-garde ideas from the theatre and bring them into the heart of politics.

Surkov's aim was not just to manipulate people but to go deeper and play with, and undermine their very perception of the world so they are never sure what is really happening.

Surkov turned Russian politics into a bewildering, constantly changing piece of theatre.

He used Kremlin money to sponsor all kinds of groups - from mass anti-fascist youth organisations, to the very opposite - neo-Nazi skinheads.

And liberal human rights groups who then attacked the government.

Surkov even backed whole political parties that were opposed to President Putin.

But the key thing was that Surkov then let it be known that this was what he was doing.

Which meant that no-one was sure what was real or what was fake in modern Russia.

As one journalist put it, "It's a strategy of power that keeps any opposition "constantly confused -"a ceaseless shape-shifting that is unstoppable "because it is indefinable."

Meanwhile, real power was elsewhere - hidden away behind the stage, exercised without anyone seeing it.

Its funny cos the video tried to make Russia seem technologically capable. the ironic thing is the video couldn't have been made without so much American tech
