Hi Christo, you're not searchable by name here. Please change it from your Bsky handle

Must be staged, surely.

cthulhu985.bsky.social•174 days ago

Fwiw, they deleted this scene from the Youtube and Rutube versions of the briefing, so probably not staged.

baronvk.bsky.social•174 days ago

it could still be staged, because by then, the message is out there. mission accomplished!

cthulhu985.bsky.social•174 days ago

Too complicated, full vid is still there on e.g. VK, and the message of "don't comment on the ballistic strike on Yuzhmash" isn't particularly interesting. Like, we know there was a strike, we've seen videos.
And, tbf, I'd rather Zakharova stopped commenting on anything at all.

what's too complicated? staging this? ofc not. goal of icbm strike was to send a signal. creating uncertainty is another goal of ruzzian propaganda. which is helped by this intervention – wether it was staged or not.

Make a gaffe, then delete it, but not everywhere... That's not how they usually do it.
And what uncertainty is there? They fired a ballistic thingy, and right now they did it again. Zakharova expounding about peerless Russian weapons at a briefing wouldn't change anything.

adding uncertainty in the layer of narratives – wether the phone intervention in the press statement was staged or not – hybrid warfare, psy-op

Very staged. 🤔

They are playing theatre and thing that the World is as stupid as themselves :)

alexalarga.bsky.social•174 days ago

"Surely this is staged" comments are basically saying "surely Russians can't be that stupid".

They were smart enough to waste 700k people on "three days to Kyiv". So yeah.

😅

skyey.bsky.social•157 days ago

They meant, "three days to Damascus."

olarhat.bsky.social•174 days ago

Obviously, the second option.

hendrik-l.bsky.social•174 days ago

staged.... pure theatre, I's say

Staged bluff.
