Let's start a meme contest about the @RheinmetallAG. I will give some examples and material that may be useful. Make your own memes and post them. Don't forget to mention @RheinmetallAG in your posts. In a week we'll choose the best ones and I will ask the authors to work with me

Key materials:

1) Rheinmetall press release, 2011
2) Their statement with awkward misinformation "we didn't supply any simulation technology!" (I've a proof you did), 2022
3) DW report on Serdyukov's visit to Letzlingen to sign contract with Rheinmetall dw.com/ru/партнеры-по…

Key facts:

1) In 2011 Rheinmetall started to build Mulino training center for Russian army with JSC Oboronservis
2) After the corruption scandal (Oboronservis case), it was renamed to JSC Garnison
3) After Crimea Rheinmetall "left" the project, but continued to supply Garnison

4) Oboronservis and Garnison is exactly the same company, just rebranded. So Rheinmetall worked with exactly the same Russian contractor, supplying it even after 2015
5) While Rheinmetall claims they never ever supplied simulation equipment for Mulino, they did (I have a proof)

Perhaps, it makes sense to put:

1) Rheinmetall logo
2) Garnison/Oboronservis logos on the memes. Well, these are the same logos. Because it is the same company, just rebranded

Now templates for memes. It is just a vague idea, don't hesitate to experiment. This is @RheinmetallAG pretending to leave the Mulino project, while in fact, continuing to work through the JSC Garnison proxy

Or perhaps this one could be combined with @RheinmetallAG logo and the pictures of Zapad-2021 manoeuvres where Putin's army prepared for invasion of Ukraine

This self description can be a component of some good meme, Idk

There's no need to limit yourself by well-known meme templates. You can absolutely take historical photos, like signing the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact

Or the Soviet/Nazi partition of Poland in 1939

I think this one may serve as a template for a very good @RheinmetallAG meme. So please do not hesitate to experiment, post your memes not forgetting to mention the @RheinmetallAG and one week later on September 6, we're gonna choose the winners. Good luck!

PS "Get over Rheinmetall AG!" - also a great meme material, thank you. Someone witty could play with this words, putting them in relationship context or else, Idk

Also a good template against the @RheinmetallAG bashing

This could represent relations between @RheinmetallAG and the Russian army (left) and Wagner mercenaries (right)
