This thread is where all the takes from idiots (looking at you Armchair Warlord) and screenshots of twitter posts/youtube thumbnails go.

        especially if it was really a bomb planted on plane, not a SAM

          True. I’d say this disinfo angle is targeted towards apathetic/low info RU public (which is most of them frankly) and western sympathisers in denial about how ruthless the regime really is.

            i’ve read an analysis where the result was that ru propaganda machine pushes many contradictory narratives for “enemy” audience (like eu countries) and single, coherent narrative for “friendly” audience (like domestic but also serbia). that single narrative doesn’t have to be true of course

              Sounds about right. The internal narrative is to actually tell people what to think, the external just the “firehose of falsehood” to divide and distract.

    Guys, we’re probs gonna get brigated by the Hexbear users soon, checked their voting thread for the re-federation, and a lot have been expressing their intent to “discuss” with us. Luckily I’m on Feddit, which is already defederated, so none of the logged in bears can interact with me

        Good to know, and considering the vote for defederation going on right now it will luckily stay that way
