In today’s #vatniksoup, I’ll introduce an American social media personality, Samantha A. (@zukosmadre).
She’s best-known for anti-Imperialism (but only when it comes to the US), and for her hot takes on the Russo-Ukrainian War and the conflict in the Middle East.

After reading the previous tweet, your first thought is probably “Who?”
Well, @zukosmadre is a relatively quickly growing social media account that focuses on commenting on geopolitical issues, occasionally posting seductive selfies and thus addressing her “fans”.

I consider Samantha to be a part of the group of “relatively attractive, young women who promote pro-Kremlin narratives” along with people like Sarah Bils, Maria Butina, Alina Lipp and Liu Sivaya (@liusivaya).
Her activities also closely resemble how @Partisangirl started.

Like @PartisanGirl, Samantha probably discovered a long time ago that her looks and attractive selfies would bring her followers and reach on social media, which can then be beneficial once you start pushing your ridiculous and genocidal political agenda.

She’s has been actively engaging in Russian war crime denialism and apologism, denial of Ukrainian sovereignty, “US/West/NATO bad” rhetoric, and general pro-Kremlin talking points ever since before the invasion of Ukraine began, ramping it way aggressively up afterward.

Sam’s views seem to stem from the support of feminist communism and socialism, and she’s heavily against “colonialism” - except if it’s done by the Russians or Soviets in Ukraine.
For her, the US is the “imperial core & global hegemon, ” yet she chooses to live there.

Then there’s of course the “8 years of shelling of Donbas” narrative, a story that’s been debunked so many times that it’s extremely difficult to find people who believe in that shit anymore. Well, here’s one I guess.She also believes in Taibbi’s & Maté’s silly RussiaGate BS.

To Sam, Ukraine’s a country full of Nazis and she proves this by sharing a UN voting map on Russia’s UN resolution they’ve used both for propaganda and for justifying their genocidal attack on Ukraine.
Incidentally, she doesn’t talk about Russia’s massive neo-Nazi problem.
9/17
Sam’s often called for people who support Ukraine to “take that energy and go fight for Ukraine”. Now this is something that you see quite often, as some people don’t realize that war efforts can be helped in many ways, including countering disinformation online.
10/17
Incidentally, Sam is doing what she’s accusing other people of - she’s arguing with Ukraine and Israel supporters online, often resorting to namecalling and ad hominems.
As of today, she hasn’t allegedly done anything other than arguing online to “help” Palestinians.
11/17
After Hamas’ terrorist attack against Israelis on 7 October 2023, Samantha ramped up her genocidal rhetoric going as far as to say that every single Israeli person, literal babies and toddlers included, are “all settlers”, and that they all deserved it.

Sam’s actually working as a bartender/server in a very popular, Jewish-owned bar in Connecticut. She’s probably used to serving Jews and Ukrainians every time she is behind the counter.
But I suppose her boss is not part of the “evil Zionists” clan she so much despises.
14/17
Probably due to the lack of tipping culture, She also despises “Europeans” (probably calls them “Nazis”) and her messages to work group chats reveal her hate and bigotry against them.
In fact she’s told her work group chat to tell Europeans “tell them to kill themselves”.
15/17
She’s allegedly studying to become a public defender, and she’s paid big bucks for companies to erase her online history.
That’s probably a good idea, if you want to become a prominent lawyer, as lately she has promoted threats against people like @drewpavlou.
16/17
To conclude: Sam is an edgy feminist/communist/far-left type that spews typical anti-Ukraine rhetoric and pro-Kremlin narratives. Lately she’s been more focused on the conflict in the Middle East, supporting terrorist group Hamas and fighting against “evil Zionists”.
