I stumbled upon an anti russian propaganda youtube short made during the wagner militia's very short lived insurgency, it was made 10 months ago but the algorithm apparently started recommending it again a few months ago.

What made me make this post isn't the video in itself but the comments. Especially the contrast between comments from back when it was published and comments from a few months ago to now.

On a side note, I think this is an interesting way to analyse and discuss mediums like social media. Measuring comments and algorithm boosts Vs time periods for propaganda pieces. Good post man!
