In today's #vatniksoup, I'll introduce a Canadian conspiracy theorist and social media personality, @liz_churchill10. She's best-known for spreading the most outrageous conspiracy theories, and for promoting pro-Kremlin narratives on social media.
1/16
It seems that Lizzy believes pretty much any conspiracy theory that supports her worldview. Globalist satanic cults, vaccines/Bill Gates/Klaus Schwab will kill you, HIV/AIDS is a bioweapon, Pizzagate, that Kamala Harris is part fish... it's all there.
2/16
I mean, let's look at her takes on 9/11 - according to Liz, it was of course an "inside job", but she also wonders why the WEF leader Klaus Schwab was having "outdoor lunch" (he was not) in NYC in a place "that had a perfect view of the WTC... when they collapsed...on 9-11"
3/16
Other than that, she's just a regular housewife, who allegedly worked as a "street psychologist", whatever that means, until she retired. But this could be yet another lie, as she lies a LOT. Lizzy lies about the number of degrees her husband has (he has exactly one),...
4/16
...the number of languages she speaks, that her grandfather fought the Nazis, and that her grandmother was Dr. Frances Kelsey, a doctor who refused to authorize thalidome for patients. There's so many lies that it's hard to keep up, but in the end the whole family...
5/16
...seems to be a Canadian white trash ragtag that supports Donald Trump and rocks "Fuck Trudeau" tattoos. When your life is extremely boring and uneventful, I guess it's some sort of escapism to just come up with stuff to look better.
6/16
Lizzy has grown her account with a technique called rage farming. She posts the most outrageous, usually made-up stuff in order to garner likes and shares. This strategy is used by many conspiratorial accounts, including @jacksonhinklle, @dom_lucre and @MattWallace888.
7/16
Today's X is a perfect place to use rage farming, as spreading disinformation and lies has no absolutely ramifications. The owner of this platform actually encourages people to do so, and he even follows and comments on most of the biggest disinformation accounts.
8/16
Liz is currently at #29 position on the most community noted accounts on X, just one note ahead of the site's owner. Liz, you gotta step up, even the Embassy of Russia in South Africa (@EmbassyofRussia) is ahead of you!
9/16
On those rare occasions when she references to articles in her posts, Lizzy uses sources like The People's Voice, Info Wars, Real America's Voice, and of course straight up Russian propaganda. Her BS has also been fact-checked several times by various fact-checking sites.
10/16
Weirdly, considering that she's Canadian, Liz is also a staunch defender of Donald Trump. According to her, Trump was arrested for exposing the Biden family's "child-sex trafficking". According to her, the Bidens also invested into bioweapons labs, allegedly in Ukraine.
11/16
Lizzy absolute loathes Ukraine and especially their courageous leader, Volodymyr Zelenskyy. She was one of the first people to spread lies about Zelenskyy buying a house from King Charles, and she's spread other fake news about Zelenskyy's alleged real estate businesses.
12/16
Then there's the classics like the "secret" US/CIA/Ukrainian biolabs, "Ukrainian Nazis", EuroMaidan was a "CIA coup" orchestrated by Victoria Nuland, etc. But also something completely new - Lizzy claims that Ukraine's First Lady has been accused of child trafficking!
13/16
Putin she sees as some kind of "savior" who's fighting against the satanic globalists whose mission apparently is to spread decadence and "wokeism" in the Western societies. Interestingly, she doesn't seem to have any desire to leave her comfy homeland to, say, Russia.
14/16
She really is obsessing over Putin, and she's posted tens of posts where she praises his leadership skills, and his efforts in fighting against "LGBTQPS Propaganda", "Child Sterilization", "Gender Dysphoria Cult" and "Pedophilia".
15/16
To conclude, Liz is a housewife/conspiracy theorist who would be completely unremarkable if it wasn't for modern social media sites and their tendency to promote BS and lies. She's that aunt at family dinners who rants to everyone about chem trails & fluoride in toothpaste.

This soup was brewed in collaboration with the @UnintelAgency.
In today’s Vatnik Soup, I’ll explain the Alaska Fiasco and how it marks the peak of Trump’s two-year betrayal of Ukraine. What was sold as “peace talks” turned into a spectacle of weakness, humiliation, empty promises, and photo-ops that handed Putin exactly what he wanted.
1/24
Let’s start with the obvious: Trump desperately wants the gold medal of the Nobel Peace Prize, mainly because Obama got one. That’s why he’s now LARPing as a “peace maker” in every conflict: Israel-Gaza, Azerbaijan-Armenia, India-Pakistan, and of course Ukraine-Russia.
2/24
Another theory is that Putin holds kompromat — compromising material such as videos or documents — that would put Trump in an extremely bad light. Some have suggested it could be tied to the Epstein files or Russia’s interference in the 2016 US presidential election.
In today’s Vatnik Soup, I’ll talk about engagement farming: a cynical social media tactic to rack up likes, shares, and comments. From rage farming to AI-powered outrage factories, engagement farming is reshaping online discourse and turning division into profit.
1/23
Engagement farming is a social media tactic aimed at getting maximum likes, shares, and comments, with truth being optional. It thrives on provocative texts, images, or videos designed to spark strong reactions, boost reach, and turn online outrage into clicks and cash.
2/23
One subset of engagement farming is rage farming: a tactic built to provoke strong negative emotions through outrageous or inflammatory claims. By triggering anger or moral outrage, these posts often generate 100s or even 1,000s of heated comments, amplifying their reach.
In today’s Vatnik Soup, I’ll cover the autocratic concept of “Good Tsar, Bad Boyars”: the idea that the leader is wise and just, but constantly sabotaged by corrupt advisors. This narrative shields the ruler from blame, and it’s used by both Putin and Trump today.
1/20
The phrase “Good Tsar, Bad Boyars” (Царь хороший, бояре плохие), also known as Naïve Monarchism, refers to a long-standing idea in Russian political culture: the ruler is good and benevolent, but his advisors are corrupt, incompetent and responsible for all failures.
2/20
From this perception, any positive action taken by the government is viewed as being an accomplishment of the benevolent leader, whereas any negative one is viewed as being caused by lower-level bureaucrats or “boyars”, without the approval of the leader.
In today’s Vatnik Soup, I’ll introduce a Russian politician and First Deputy Chief of Staff of the Presidential Administration of Russia, Sergey Kiriyenko. He’s best known for running both domestic and foreign disinformation and propaganda operations for the Kremlin.
1/20
On paper, and in photos, Kiriyenko is just as boring as most of the Kremlin’s “political technologists”: between 2005-2016 he headed the Rosatom nuclear energy company, but later played a leading role in the governance of Russia-occupied territories in Ukraine.
2/20
What is a political technologist? In Russia, they’re spin doctors & propaganda architects who shape opinion, control narratives, and manage elections — often by faking opposition, staging events, and spreading disinfo to maintain Putin’s power and the illusion of democracy.
Let me show you how a Pakistani (or Indian, they're usually the same) AI slop farm/scam operates. The account @designbonsay is a prime example: a relatively attractive, AI-generated profile picture and a ChatGPT-style profile description are the first red flags.
1/5
The profile's posts are just generic engagement farming, usually using AI-generated photos of celebrities or relatively attractive women.
These posts are often emotionally loaded and ask the user to interact with them ("like and share if you agree!").
2/5
Then there's the monetization part. This particular account sells "pencil art", which again are just AI-generated slop.
In today’s Vatnik Soup, I’ll introduce an American lawyer and politician, Mike Lee (@BasedMikeLee). He’s best-known for opposing the aid to Ukraine, undermining NATO by calling the US to withdraw from the alliance, and for fighting with a bunch of braindead dogs online.
1/21
Like many of the most vile vatniks out there, “Based Mike” is a lawyer by profession. He hails from the holy land of Mormons, Utah, where he faces little political competition, allowing him to make the most outrageous claims online without risking his Senate seat.
2/21
Before becoming a senator, Mike fought to let a nuclear waste company dump Italian radioactive waste in Utah, arguing it was fine if they just diluted it. The state said no, the public revolted, and the courts told poor Mikey to sit down.
