Content of the forbidden comment:
I love people trying to still use the old classics cause it really helps show people how fucking crazy shit is right now.
That's why we are where we are in 2025. People adore this shit, the Twitter behavior of a Apple iPhone meme addict leading the nation appeals so much to the audience. People who hate Trump adore mocking Trump. That's the heart of the Russian information warfare that started in March 2013. Which you can't link or even quote here on Reddit front page topics because the spam filters (and/or anonymous no-identity Kremlin participants) are manipulated by Russia too (and not just this platform). You can't get Americans to escape it because they don't even realized absurd mockery is the foundation of the whole Kremlin techniques. People love it and adore when others act stupid, which MAGA was the first to go way off the deep end of anti-intellectualism in 2015, when it was 18 months into the Russian media invasion.
more than a decade ago:
“In the twenty-first century the techniques of the political technologists have become centralized and systematized, coordinated out of the office of the presidential administration, where Surkov would sit behind a desk on which were phones bearing the names of all the “independent” party leaders, calling and directing them at any moment, day or night. The brilliance of this new type of authoritarianism is that instead of simply oppressing opposition, as had been the case with twentieth-century strains, it climbs inside all ideologies and movements, exploiting and rendering them absurd. One moment Surkov would fund civic forums and human rights NGOs, the next he would quietly support nationalist movements that accuse the NGOs of being tools of the West. With a flourish he sponsored lavish arts festivals for the most provocative modern artists in Moscow, then supported Orthodox fundamentalists, dressed all in black and carrying crosses, who in turn attacked the modern art exhibitions. The Kremlin’s idea is to own all forms of political discourse, to not let any independent movements develop outside of its walls. Its Moscow can feel like an oligarchy in the morning and a democracy in the afternoon, a monarchy for dinner and a totalitarian state by bedtime.” ― Peter Pomerantsev, Nothing Is True and Everything Is Possible: The Surreal Heart of the New Russia, year 2014

Its controlled opposition.
Like how AIPAC rounded the corners off any strategies that would have allowed the Democrats to win in November.
That's domestic, internal. In March 2013, Russia exported it in forms that meme consumers can take without any person. Then in 2022, ChatGPT joined in after having been trained on all that material.

Часть вторая.
В чем заключалась наша идея с Дональдом Трампом? За четыре года и два дня.. необходимо было пробраться ко всем в мозг и захватить все возможные средства массового восприятия действительности. Обеспечить победу Дональда на выборах президента США. После чего создать политический союз между Соединенными Штатами, Францией, Россией (и ещё рядом других государств) и установить новый мировой порядок.
Четыре года и два дня - это с одной стороны очень большой срок, а с другой очень маленький. Наша идея была безумна, но реализуема. Для того, чтобы в этом во всем разобраться для начала нужно было "оцифровать" все возможные виды современного человека. Дональд решил пригласить для этой задачи - специальный научный отдел "Кембриджского университета".
Британские учёные из Cambridge Analytica предложили сделать из 5 тысяч существующих человеческих психотипов - "идеальный образ" возможного сторонника Трампа. Затем.. положить этот образ обратно на всё психотипы и таким образом подобрать универсальный ключик к любому и каждому.
Разработка в итоге обошлась Дональду Фредовичу в 5 миллионов долларов. Но! Он получил в свои руки - секретное супер-оружие. Кто занимался таргетированной рекламой.. поймёт, что это значит. Помните, сколько всего денег потратили фонды Клинтон и "их сторонники" на кампанию по всему миру? В 5 раз больше, чем Трамп.
Evidence
And you have in year 2014 independent evidence of this 2013 onward content appearing all over the Internet / social machine systems.
Russia-watcher Catherine Fitzpatrick, who documents Kremlin disinformation for InterpreterMag.com, says just as Moscow uses vague Internet laws to encourage self-censorship, trolls inhibit informed debate by using crude dialogue to change "the climate of discussion." "If you show up at The Washington Post or New Republic sites, where there's an article that's critical of Russia, and you see that there are 200 comments that sound like they were written by 12-year-olds, then you just don't bother to comment," she says. "You don't participate. It's a way of just driving discussion away completely," she adds. "Those kinds of tactics are meant to stop democratic debate, and they work."
