Immediately after the performance of the Russian propagandist Ovsyannikova with her poster, media experts and ordinary people who are well versed in Russian lies said that this special operation was aimed at foreign audience. It has long been known that Russian television is severely censored: there are no live broadcasts, news stories are often fictional from beginning to end, the shots are staged, and experts have FSB (Russia\u2019s Federal Security Service) ranks. And what else could we expect from a country where autocracy has been built for decades, and where total control over the media is the key to the regime’s existence?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But, unfortunately, there are still people in the West who are willing to believe in “good” Russians and the possibility of a riot in the recorded news. It’s like believing in Santa Claus in your 60s. No one was surprised that the writing on the poster for the Russians began in English. Even if it was a live broadcast, the probability of a person with a poster entering the studio would be about zero percent: in Russia, such facilities are better protected than nuclear power plants. These are total lies, severely controlled by the terrorist country. However, if these arguments do not convince you, then think about this. Recently, the State Duma of the Russian Federation passed a law according to which 15 years in prison is provided for calling the war war. And here she appeared on “live” central TV with the poster and ended up just being fined?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
