Russian propaganda is making inroads with right-wing Canadians
New research shows that at least half of Canadians have encountered pro-Kremlin propaganda online and that those who hold left-leaning views are less susceptible to the Kremlin’s disinformation.

In fairness I think Russia is also doing very well with tankies and other ultra left. Crazies on both end of the spectrum are most susceptible. It’s just there is a lot more crazies on the right.Russian propaganda is making inroads with right-wing Canadians

Nobody gives a shit about Russia except to hope they stay to their fucking selves.

I'm getting so far behind on my (book) reading because of brain crack like TERB, Youtube and news articles! But noting beats a well written and edited book.
At first I thought I'd just not bother to buy any more books until I catch up but this post was a good wake-up call for me! I've got a couple weeks of pure R&R ahead of me so I'm going to select a couple books to read.
Thanks for the wake-up!
I read his Crimean War book and the Russian Revolution 1891-1921 book. The latter is the most relevant.
But if you follow Kamil Galeev on Twitter, you get lots of interesting shit as well. There's stuff about traditional Russian literature being very imperialistic and very supportive of military expansionism.
