Degenerate Russia
In this series, we look behind the Kremlin propaganda and see the real Russia – an authoritarian country that doesn’t care about its people and desperately tries to hold on to its imperialistic past.
As part of their “firehose of falsehood”, Kremlin propaganda aimed at “right-wing” / conservative audiences tries to portray russia as a bastion of Christian, traditional values. The reality, of course, is quite the opposite.
Degenerate vatniks – it’s a certain type of people that Russia tends to get to through MICE or who are capable of supporting the Russian atrocities and war crimes. Not the good kind.
