aside from the obvious fact that that’s insane, how is something partially propaganda? like, is russia only giving the artist partial money? is the artist 1/36th serbian or some shit? surely something IS propaganda or its not. braindead shit i stg
Putting on my dunce cap for a moment to try and rationalize it.
Possibly meaning it’s a derivative of something paid for by Russian government so serving a similar purpose but not actually paid for? Doesn’t make logical sense, still, but I can see how someone could mean that with those words.
I think there’s a way in which it makes sense. Consider the way in which the FBI might plant a wrecker narrative, something about Asians in Black spaces or whatever, which is initially only emitted by compromised individuals but spreads organically. Any individual instance of that narrative can’t be distinguished between paid propaganda and someone parroting the propaganda. In this sense, you could just take the average and call it partially FBI propaganda. Libs see things that way about Russia with anything that criticizes their heroes. The difference is, the only evidence they can cite is American Intelligence and think tanks.
