Good News! Margarita Simonyan Is Very Impressed By the Progress of Putin's SMO!
I think I owe my readers an apology!
Here I thought things were slow and gruesome on the front. It turns out that I was mistaken though! RT’s top info-patriot came out to correct the record and insist that all was going well and according to the plan. Here:
Now, wait a second.
Computer: ENHANCE!
Mama mia!
Wow.
Woof WOOF!
What is it about patriots and being burnt and orange?
Is orange the new red white and blue (this joke works for both America and Russia because the color scheme is the same)?
If I’ve learned anything about politics since 2015 it is that the more someone resembles a tangerine, the more patriotic they are!
Clearly!
Anyway.
It is sad to see how far she’s let herself go after Riley Slavsquat cut her off so abruptly.
Some women just can’t handle that kind of rejection easily, I guess.
Me, personally, I think Riley is a monster and shouldn’t have treated her that way, but well, that’s insider baseball that I’m not supposed to be sharing with you guys. It almost came to fisticuffs last time I brought it up with him. This story and more is all behind the paywall of my latest article, so you could read the steamy details there if you signed up, but otherwise my lips are sealed.
…
OK, yeah, so I honestly just wanted to make fun of Margarita today when I saw her spray tan featured on Nakanune’s header lol (they really hate her) but it occurs to me that this bit of news is important because Margarita is now saying one of the quiet parts out loud for some reason and that is worth commenting on.
See, I’ve alleged that domestic Kremlin propaganda is sourced on simply reading alarmist reports from Western media and promoting them as proof of how well their policies are working. Either that or they take Western “experts” like Ritter, Johnson, Macgregor, Raevsky and so on who are actually just spooks and writing headlines like, “Western experts agree that it’s so totally over for Ukraine lmao”. Then the aforementioned experts translate these articles that were written based on what they had said into English and claim that these reports are insider Russia information.
It is like a philosophical clockwork orange that is wound up and keeps cycling on and on.
At least I think that my metaphor works.
I don’t really know what a clockwork orange actually is, but what I wrote sounds right so we will stick with it.
I’ve explained that the alarmist headlines from the West are total bullshit several times already. My latest “prediction” ended up being vindicated. We were hearing about how a great tragedy was about to befall the Kievan government’s war effort.
🚨PATRIOT ALERT🚨 Top NAFO Propagandists All Declare That Ukraine-Satanist-Army Facing Total Catastrophe!
No, I’m not being sarcastic with the headline. The sarcasm will come later in the article. If you still read the NAFO propagandists or, more charitably, the analysts, they’re all sounding the alarm and declaring an imminent looming catastrophe for the forces of Democracy Values Human Rights Dumbledore Good against the Moskal horde.
And yes, 200 some square kilometers were taken by Russian forces in the north because Kiev embezzled all the money for putting up defenses there and that is very funny indeed, sure.
But … well … that’s literally it though. Nothing else happened. There was no follow-through even though, apparently, the north was wide-open this whole time and even regular Telegram bloggers knew this (let along the Russian MoD) and still nothing was done, really.
Even if the little townlet of Chasov Yar is taken by Russia by the end of the summer, well … OK then, great … but what difference does that make, like, at all?
It seems to me that it would make no discernible difference in any strategic sense whatsoever.
And just in case you thought that something big was brewing in the north, a huge new Russian operation to de-nazify Kharkov or something, well, let’s see what Putin had to say about that. Here:
Moscow. May 17th. INTERFAX.RU - The Russian Federation has no plans to take Kharkov, Russian President Vladimir Putin said.
(…)
Commenting on the progress of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in the Kharkov direction, the president noted that "every day they move strictly according to plan".
At the same time, Putin said that the Russian Federation has no plans to take the city. "“As for Kharkov, there are no such plans to date,” the head of state said.
Why is it that when I say that there won’t be any big offensives to take cities or surround the UAF or to take Odessa, I am condemned as a traitor to Russia by Westerners?
In contrast, when Putin says it, well, that’s just what the new patriot position du jour becomes, immediately, overnight. Putin could literally come out and say, “actually, we are giving up Rostov and Volgograd to Ukraine too and bringing in 40 million Africans with Ebola into Russia to “de-nazify” the Russian people” and that would become the new anti-globalist position overnight for these people. Tens of thousands are already on their way, the millions will follow shortly.
It is remarkable really and no, I don’t think I am exaggerating — the postmodernists are right, actually, and reality (or rather people’s perception of it) is literally INFINITELY malleable so long as you have power and money and the media at your disposal.
The Politics of Postmodernity in Russia ... and Not Only
I’ve found that most people struggle to understand words. As a writer, you can never assume that a reader understands a key term that is central to your analysis. If you do, it will become clear sooner rather than later that you assumed too much too quickly. I encounter this problem whenever I write about metaphysics. I simplify what I am writing about …
Both sides, as you can see for yourselves, are cooperating in the creation of a unified media narrative. The West writes reports claiming that it is all over for Kiev (send more money, please!) and Margarita reads these reports to put them up on RT. These reports are then picked up by the “alternative” bloggers as proof that Russia is winning bigly. And, by that point, they finally reach us, the undiscerning, naive marks.
We think we are getting insider Russian general reports, but we are really just getting leftover infoslop from the same sources of disinfo that we thought we were avoiding. So long as it is given a thin veneer of patriotism on top though, like a spray tan perhaps, orange preferably, then we don’t notice the deception.
But more and more people are seeing through the grotesque paint job.
Through to the horror hiding beneath the pretty lies …
We have to start learning to resist the allure of the patriotic Christian orange spray-tan, folks. I know it can be hard … God knows I just feel saliva start pooling up and then just cascading down uncontrollably past my lips whenever I see Margarita in the news. Mm! Pull it together, Rurik! Get to the end of the article at least! Hot DOG!
In Margarita’s case, I think you should read this article I wrote explaining how she was recruited by the West as an info-asset and why:
The Assassination Plot Against Sobchak and Simonyan Makes No Sense
Here is what the state media had to say about the latest Neo-Nazi terror plot against Russia’s brightest and most patriotic voices: MOSCOW, July 15. /TASS/. Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB) has foiled a plot by Ukrainian intelligence to murder Chief Editor of RT International News TV Channel Margarita Simonyan and journalist Ksenia Sobchak throug…
As for any other orange patriots that might pop up in the news cycle in the near future, well, I will leave that topic in the hands of bloggers more capable than I am for now.
I will focus on the Eastern Bloc of the NWO instead.
You really should read my latest deep dive on Andropov if you haven’t done so already. I haven’t seen anyone else trying to explain the collapse of the USSR for some reason and once you read the article, you will understand why. Also, I’m going to take it easy for a few days so you’re not getting more content out of me otherwise. This soft-core erotica directed at Margarita is the best that you’re going to get until you start signing up and supporting my work.
My condolences to Margarita. Riley is busy starting an organic farming cult in Northern Russia and cannot stay tied to one woman. He can break the trend of all cults these days being boring no fun zones and his descendants can repopulate Russia after the 5000IQ President for life Putin's Kenyans cause the collapse of civilization in the slavlands.
Ritter and Macgregor. I had such high hopes for those patriotic American lads telling us the inverse of the neocons. The mind fucking is an awful carnival ride like the scene in 'The Princess Bride' where the genius is trying to guess in which cup has the poison.
