I’m slowly feasting on this awful shit but I gotta jump in and say it, these posts are the most Russian thing I’ve ever seen:
a bunch of these posts are literally the exact documented template that the Internet Research Agency used. so many of them degrade into weird broken English as the poster tries and fails to modify the script for the situation.
this is fucking amazing, seriously. if you want to sharpen your instincts for what foreign state trolling looks like, these are the posts that’ll do it.
hello my fellow ordinary software developers. lazy newcomers wanting money and laziness, am I right? the Flying Spaghetti Monster!
anyway, here are my astonishingly thin takes on imperialism and why it’s definitely never something Russia does
Wait, is a Russian troll trying to paint USA in a bad light by mentioning... Poland? Famously a nation that suffered immensely from the USA and only benefited from its eastern Russian Friends and Liberators.
Russia complaining that the US sells too many weapons is an awkward line when the AK platform is the universal symbol for armed conflict across the globe.
