I think Ukraine is using a good amount of the foreign aid on reddit propaganda. There's a thread yesterday on r/worldnews with like 50k upvotes about how russians "risk freezing to death" due to a -20c coldsnap.
For one weather forecast doesn't show this temp, and two uhm Russians are uh checks notes, not used to the cold?? Let alone Ghost of Kyiv, the "russians are trying to blow up the nuclear facility", snake island, etc stories blasted on every major sub with $1000 of awards.
Yeah they are running this like a DNC campaign for Senator or something, instead of a military operation. Just pumping money into ads and astroturfs.
It's too bad Russians are being way too professional at this and not trolling them back. I guess winning the physical war is better than winning the reddit/twitter war.
Even if swaying the public opinion of westoid redditors had any real worth (it doesn't), they're too stupid and propagandized to actually question anything to be swayed at this point. Especially when they have a lazy out to engaging with any dissonance in "rUsSiAn BoT" accusations.
True but it wouldn't be much work to make a few joking jabs at them, they've been surprisingly modest and tightlipped about the whole thing. And it's not like that's really helped them much in the court of public opinion, they got hit with every possible sanction and retaliation anyway.
