The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

Should I be worried that Russia has time to devote to this of all things? :-P

Then again, anyone who has watched it knows exactly how dangerous it is - it shows people cooperating, even (gasp) helping one another, a dangerous idea indeed! :-D

Russia only has time for warmongering, propaganda, and more warmongering. This probably falls under propaganda, just in a "youre not endorsing glorious Motherland? SUSPICIOUZ..." sorta way

That's a good point actually. Never underestimate the power of a good saber rattle, I suppose? Also, they can't show the enemy how tough they are (not) on the battlefield, thus it makes sense to start terrorizing little children next, who are so very traitorous as to be (checks notes) watching YouTube cartoons. Yeesh :-(.
