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

      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.
