As Alexander and Alex were remarking today, Russia's - Putin's, handling of the information war has been abysmal. Earlier they had contrasted this with the way Iran went about connecting with the younger sections of the Western community. Heavily satirical videos, extremely creative and with a high professional polish have run circles around the crude Western efforts to demonize Iran - with an uncanny insight into our pop culture. Notice in particular the use of humor.

How easy it would have been for the Russians to take advantage of public disgust at Trump's buffoonish antics and turn him into a laughing-stock. Look what a treasure-trove of opportunities, not only Trump, but also Starmer, Macron, Mertz and especially von der Laden have offered any decent satirical video production unit - wouldn't it be delightful to watch Lego versions of these characters making fools of themselves?

it's a bit late but not too late: let's hope somebody is listening in Russia!
