While Russian President Vladimir Putin is raining bombs on Ukrainian cities, his top propagandists are most concerned about getting bombarded with text messages and losing the information war to Ukraine.

On Thursday’s episode of The Evening With Vladimir Soloviev, state TV propagandist Vladimir Soloviev complained that he and editor-in-chief of RT Margarita Simonyan are being terrorized by unknown individuals, receiving endless calls and texts about Russia’s military activities in Ukraine. He griped: “Margarita and I can show our telephones to demonstrate that we’re getting a thousand calls and texts per hour.”

Several days earlier, two other state TV propagandists, Olga Skabeeva and her husband Evgeny Popov, also reported a barrage of calls. Skabeeva, who hosts the state TV show 60 Minutes, angrily yelled that Ukrainians or their supporters have been “endlessly calling everybody, everybody, all citizens of Russia, including me and Evgeny!” Later in the show, she loudly interrupted a panelist to grumble about being subjected to a “mass attack that started at 2 a.m... we started getting calls from the territory of Ukraine, two to three minutes apart, Ukrainian and Polish phone numbers calling nonstop... And then, text messages with threats to kill me and my family, and photos—endless photos—of corpses, which they say are the corpses of Russian soldiers!”

The fact that the Russian military is experiencing heavy losses during the invasion of Ukraine seemed to be of little consequence to Skabeeva, who for years publicly agitated for war against Ukraine. She was, however, overtly angered by the messages, which serve as a reminder of the war’s consequences.

Meanwhile in Moscow, the Russian government has adopted new legislation to prevent the dissemination of “fake” information about the invasion, with state media describing worldwide condemnation of the Kremlin’s deeds as “informational carpet bombing.” Across state television, Putin’s attempted blitzkrieg against Kyiv is being entirely overshadowed by the Western response to the assault on Ukraine, including U.S. sanctions, which Russian lawmaker Alexey Nechayev described as “the blitzkrieg of the West against the Russian economy.”

1. There is that point to be constantly made that the objection...

is not to the dead, but to the pictures of the dead.

Of course, if you stop the death, there's nothing to have pictures of. Is that too difficult for her to fathom?

7. Is this connected to Anonymous and their campaign

to call Russians out with texts, etc?

"For this purpose we have created the 1920.in tool. Within 48 hours the people of the free world sent the Russians 2 million text messages on their cell phones. Thank you for that! Don’t stop! Ukrainians are fighting with real guns. We can at least with our smartphones.”

They put out a video about it too. I posted it earlier, click on the tweet link below to watch.

11. That's what I was thinking.

Anonymous is winning the propaganda war, and that is a serious blow to Putin's plan to control the message.

The Russians have never run into anything like this before. Their troll farm usually beats back any hackers trying to rat fuck the Russian propaganda, but Anonymous has opened up the floodgates and the trolls can't begin to beat them back.

It makes my heart soar like an eagle to see Putin utterly destroyed at his own game. 🥳

9. I never realized that Russians could be so whiny. Speaking of Nazi propagandists...

I wonder if we could do the same thing to #ucker Carlson.

10. Clearly, the people receiving these calls are paid propagandists

Although it's not the most important factor in this post, I notice that they report that these calls are coming from "the territory of Ukraine . . .

No, they're coming from the internationally-recognized, long established, sovereign country of Ukraine. Check a damned map, you idiots!

[Alien Life Form]

13. Help

Can someone tell us how we can also send messages to these Nazis?

16. Western sanctions should be permanent until Russia withdraws

all it’s troops from “all” Ukrainian territory including the Crimean Peninsula and pays reparations.
