Last month, a video began circulating on social media purporting to tell the story of an internet troll farm in Kyiv targeting the American election.
Speaking in English with a Slavic accent, “Olesya” offers a first-person account of how she and her colleagues initially worked in support of President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine. Then, she says, after a visit by mysterious Americans who were “probably C.I.A.,” the group began sending messages to American audiences in support of President Biden.
“We were told our new target was the United States of America, especially the upcoming elections,” the woman in the video says. “Long story short, we were asked to do everything to prevent Donald Trump from winning the elections.”
The video is fake, part of an effort to cloud the political debate ahead of the U.S. elections.
Buying Donald Trump a presidency is a huge discount on his war in Ukraine and likely his invasion of other nations. It costs nothing in comparison, and Trump is blatantly ready to do it. Sadly it might just work.
The videos may be fake, but the methods they describe are being used by ruzzian terrorists themselves. Bear in mind that every accusation is really a confession.
If they “reveal” that their opponent’s are doing these terrible things then it helps their own people justify and accept that their own side are doing it too.
Like, it doesn’t matter if that was true, it only matters who said it first 🤦♂️
US citizens don’t need to fear any Russian disinformation video campaign, just themselves. Remember Pizzagate? No video was needed for this one to stick.
I mean - it stuck without video. So yeah i’m fearing the same plus video.
The Russian disinformation campaign favors Trump? Say it isn’t so!
I’m sure Trump and Putin are also laughing their assess of that young liberals are doing their bidding and going anti Biden
