    It’s not a joint strategy, necessarily. Chinese, I suspect, are simply paid in social credits for displays of fervent nationalism. But it’s certainly cheap enough to pay a room of shills to repeat your talking points of the day. Even on remote outposts like lemmy. For a country with a weak economy and military like Russia, information war is the best bang for the buck.

            I think you’re just too dim to understand. You brought race randomly into this. Now you cast NATO as some power to be feared. It’s a defensive pack. Russia casts it as a boogeyman to justify invading it’s neighbors. That would make you a Russian bootlicker.

              No, you do not need to fear NATO. Just look away from all the people they killed in Yugoslavia, Libya, Afghanistan… Nothing to see if you just stick your head in the sand.

      It’s simpler than that. They’re paid nothing. It’s of their own accord. It’s kind of sad.
