One would hope that our intelligence establishment would be paying heed to articles like this. If so, they would realize the United States has become a laughing stock in Russia.
In May of 2016 the Saker wrote an article for the Unz Review entitled “Counter-Propaganda, Russian Style” in which he tried to show the immense difference between the old, Soviet, approach to propaganda and counter-propaganda and the approach taken by the Russian authorities today.
The main difference was this: if the Soviet went out of their way to prevent western propaganda from reaching the Soviet people, the Russians are nowadays doing the exact opposite: they are going out of their way to make sure that western propaganda is immediately translated and beamed into every single Russian household.
