Why is that?

  Given the misinformation that western media fell for, it certainly is cringe and bluepilled. It’s like people believe the narrative they want to see and ignore reality.

  > Because the Global American Empire is always on the side of what is bad, wrong, or immoral. Here's a simple rule to guide you. If GAE says it's good, it's bad. If GAE says it's bad then it's good. Remember that the empire exists to serve its own interests which are always against the interests of regular people. No idea why this is being downvoted. I actually think this is an excellent characterization of Russian propaganda. But why is it that you enjoy that?

  I can just imagine the contemporary contrarian takes about to the great atrocities of the past.

    It is incredibly charitable of you to call someone that splits the world into "cringe" and "based and redpilled" a contemporary contrarian. I think they should just close the 4chan tab and go outside a bit.

      It's not far off a lot of modern day contrarianism. Whereby contrarianism I mean the lazy kind (as opposed to the pretentious kind)

They probably throw more effort in it. /

  They have to, because in reality they have less to appeal people with. The ONLY thing that Russia has going to its propaganda is that they're the underdog. Everything else is a lie.

    Are they even the underdog, though?

      This is the definition I'm using > 1 : a loser or predicted loser in a struggle or contest I think it fits. Russia loses a lot.

        Underdog is the submitted in a dogs' fight. I have noticed that identification with dogs has become very frequent in the past decade, apparently in more territories and among diverse cultures. If there is one thing that does not promise well...

        Russia does lose a lot, but I recall earlier in the year that Russia was predicted to win against Ukraine. One is a former global superpower (and current regional superpower) with cutting-edge military technology ostensibly competitive with that of the US (not to mention nukes), and the other is Ukraine. The world has learned since then that the Ukrainian language seems to lack any words for "I surrender", and that Russian claims of military might may have been rather drastically inflated.
