St Petersburg outfit hijacks discussions on Twitter, TikTok, world leaders’ social accounts and media websites, as well as manipulating opinion polls

...Online operatives were found to be ordering followers to target western media outlets and politicians

The headquarters is allegedly located in rented space in St Petersburg’s Arsenal Machine-building Factory, a company that manufactures military equipment and technology.

The study details how the Russian president’s regime is trying to manipulate public opinion on social media, as well as in the comments sections of major media outlets.

Targets include the social media accounts of Boris Johnson, the British prime minister; the German chancellor, Olaf Scholz; and the EU foreign policy chief, Josep Borrell.

The troll farm is said to recruit and hire salaried workers openly, justifying the work as “patriotic activity” in support of the “special military operation” in Ukraine.

I am a jew you absolute nonce... grandmother on my maternal side was a jew. Not practicing mind you, but the Rabbi would confirm....

Then you are a LEsbiAntHesPIANgYMnASTicmIDGET Jew.
Which is crazy enough to be a Nazi without even knowing it.

Why do you hate special needs children so much?
One called you cRaZy?
He was right!

Says one of the prime progandists instilling hatred for all things Russian. I bet you’d love to put every Russkie origin person not in Russia in a camp.And then you’d love nothing better than killing every last one of them in Russia. You say you aren’t a sauerkraut sausage eating Hun. Probably a lie

Ethnic Russians in the east were treated as untermenschen for years starting with banderite Poreshenko. He stoked the drive to separate. But only those deemed by washington or Brussels to be ‘good separatists’ find favour. Case in point. Kosovo Albanians. Nato had to try out some weapon systems and make bent dick look a hero

Yep, I saw this Ukrainian "Sainthood" crap coming since the NATO Attack on Serbia and the Islamization Kosovo by military force.

Why else do you spam hate on them for?

That's not what I think or have posted. But I'm not interested in what a Dublin Putin Stooge invents about me. Do you have an American friend there who can post?

Bent dick cared nothing for the almost sacred feel Serbs had for Kosovo. It is akin to the Alamo for Texas or Valley Forge for the U.S identity. He and hag Albright wanted to look good to Euroweenies and start getting Germany bombing again.

That’s funny because the new accounts with old sign up dates are pro-Ukraine.

One of our journalists in Ukraine warned us to not underestimate Jankowicz. I’s tempting to do so because of her idiotic singing. He says she is formidable.
