I’m not on Twitter, so I get my news elsewhere, but most of the actual pictures I see are from here. So is there some kind of bias where only the fascist imagery gets posted here in the the dunk tank? Or do the libs scrolling through Ukrainian posts on Twitter literally see and ignore fascist imagery on every single post? Like, if they see 1000 Ukrainian soldiers, will they see 1000 fascist symbols?

There's a video out there from pretty early in the war with an azov officer bragging and laughing about how easy it was for them to dupe the entire western media apparatus into apologizing for their obvious fascism, so yeah.

I haven't seen it since it was first making the rounds though, and I have no idea how to even start trying to find it again.

TBH I think that guy got it backwards. He didn’t “dupe” the media, it’s just his masters running interference for him. The CIA has him wrapped around their collective little finger, not the other way around. Kind of like a dog thinking they tricked their owner into feeding them.

Oh definitely, but it does demonstrate how it's an intentional effort. Unlike his masters this fascist dog just comes right out and admits it.

I'd love to get a source for this if you have one.

[–] Ram_The_Manparts@hexbear.net 22 points 1 year ago

Same, but like I said I have no idea where to even start looking

I don't internet very well

I think there are pieces of it in this clip compilation video

I just posted it in a comment yesterday. Funny how often it becomes relevant and how few liberals know about this, even over a year and a half later.

tagging @GhostofLeninsGhost@hexbear.net in case this helps.
