‼️ If you are an American Citizen, you absolutely need to look at this Press Release from the Department of Justice related to a Russian Disinformation campaign.
REGARDLESS OF WHAT POLITICAL PARTY YOU ARE A MEMBER OF.

There are a few documents attached that are propaganda project proposals directed against the United States.
If each document has an English version & a Russian version. I will attach screenshot shots of the English portion (same content)
If you take a step back and read the contents, it becomes clear that their own prejudices and misunderstanding of the United States show themselves.
It also becomes clear that Russia wants to amplify some of the worst possible narratives in hopes of causing discord.

Here is a link to the affidavit from the Justice Department

‼️ Pay attention to this one
Let me do a close screenshot of this page…

See, they attack BOTH WAYS. The top example wants you to believe that nothing is true and everything is fake.
This is one of the sneakiest things trolls do.
They try to oversimplify topics and make anything that sounds like it isn’t perfect a failure.
They make a false narrative of what will be unlikely to happen and when it doesn’t can claim failure (or success)!
For example:
Another good example is how Russia actually was running out of artillery shells.
But somehow they convinced people that if that the guns would suddenly just stop, and since that exact thing didn’t happen it was all a failure!
The Annex of this affidavit is fascinating. There’s an example of just generating conflicts!

It isn’t just Americans who should be paying attention
Pay attention France & Germany!
Russian Disinformation campaign aimed at Israel
Russia really wants everyone to believe that there will be a civil war in the US any day now.
This is another interesting part, a “sleeper campaign”
It seems likely that these sorts of campaigns are not going to be limited to just Ukraine.
I swear I’m not a sleeper account!
The good news for all of you, is that I’m weird and unique enough that you’d probably notice if my account was suddenly taken over by someone else.
There was a page in the Annex for Memes
I didn’t say they were good memes 😂
