Which narrative is that? "Putin is a hero?" Because other than that, I'm not seeing a narrative.
The Western elites are trans dimensional space vampires that eat children and Great Leader Putin bravely fights for "traditional values" or some shit. Basically the whole QAnon, Alex Jones type idiocy.
That sounds like an American narrative, not a Russian one.
The American narrative is the Russian narrative. It’s obvious propaganda.
Okay, now you're coming up with a conspiracy theory to explain why this isn't a conspiracy theory.
The adrenachrome thing came from Q, who was not Russian but the father and son team of Jim and Ron Watkins, and they bastardized it from Hunter S. Thompson's Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas.
No Russians were necessary here. Just crazy people.
And you think the Russian troll farms had nothing to do with amplifying those theories?
I think there is no reason to assume that is the case here.
No reason to assume, there's a ton of evidence of Russian influence on western social media, especially on q-anon, anti-vax and conspiracy theories, they do this to destabilize western countries, and as you can see Trump got elected.
You're literally making an assumption unless you have evidence about this specific instance.
I still stand by the assertion that the "good guy Putin" part of the narrative is no accident.
Because crazy right-wing people don't think Putin is a good guy who does heroic things? Only Russian operatives think that? Seems like a waste of said operatives in that case.
