I'm curious who this Julianus person is. Makes their account three days ago. Only posts propaganda about Russia-Ukraine. Maybe they are someone's alt who are too scared to show their true thoughts on their main account. Or maybe they are a glowie looking to sow division in one of the few networks that is immune from state department censorship.
It is certainly not immune from state department propaganda from both side of the war.
Don't like the message, so you attack the messenger? I'm just sick and tired of Russian propaganda. Power doesn't come from lies, it comes from working on your economy. Russia made a strategic choice to double down on information war. It seemed so cheap and effective! But we see today that if you ignore truck maintenance instead, your lies don't roll those invading columns.
They never did learn, did they? Remember this old joke?
The train breaks down. Lenin tries to rally the workers to work together and get the train running again. When that fails, Stalin lines up all the workers and shoots them. When that doesn't help, Khrushchev tries to reform the workers back to life. When that also fails, Brezhnev pulls down all the curtains in the rail car and says "let's just pretend the train is moving."
Face it, the train isn't moving.
