Congrats to the Russian MFA on finding a Russian plane that drops something other than bombs on civilians.
A good example of how some media participate in the normalization of extremist concepts. Here, @politico.eu doesn't mention that "remigration" systematically means for far-right parties the forced mass deportation of immigrants and ethnic minorities.
Quant à Jean-Jacques Tanguy, l’emblème des pêcheurs du coin, il est très surpris d’avoir vu un président lui-même si ému devant les quatre Bretons inconnus. « Quand il a parlé des vies que nous aurions sauvées, il avait la gorge serrée et a eu du mal à finir sa phrase. »
If De Gaulle were alive today, he'd be in Kyiv, not Moscow. He would know that a regime attacking our allies and trying to destabilise our country and divide our society is not our friend.
Les investigations de VIGINUM ont permis d’identifier plusieurs marqueurs techniques d’extranéité indiquant l’implication d’acteurs israéliens, et notamment d’une entreprise israélienne œuvrant dans le domaine de l’influence nommée Blackcore. www.sgdsn.gouv.fr/files/files/...
Débordements violents d'hier et réseaux sociaux. Quelques réflexions. ⬇️ #Paris #LigueDesChampions
A reminder that intense Russian disinformation campaigns also played a key role in forcing the UN peacekeeping mission out of #Mali in 2023, fuelling the instability which led to the current full-blown security crisis. www.ipinst.org/wp-content/u... www.bbc.com/afrique/arti...
Slopaganda: The Inauthentic YouTube Network Selling Secession to Albertans The Canadian Digital Media Research Network discovered a large set of YouTube channels that produce inauthentic, mass-produced, US-annexation favourable videos accumulating over 40 million views. www.cdmrn.ca/incident-slo...
The French fishing villages helping Ukraine catch Russian drones Breton ports have donated 932 miles of netting to be stretched into tunnels that entangle enemy propellers 🇺🇦🤝🇫🇷 www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2...
It's the equivalent of a repeated arsonist attacking the authorities' decision to increase its firefighting capacities.
The Russian propaganda strategies to divert the public attention from the disastrous results of the Kremlin's war of aggression in Ukraine are getting dumber and dumber. #StandWithUkraine
"Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me. Fool me three times, ... "
A new classic for Russian propaganda is about hyping anti-EU/anti-Ukraine demonstrations from fringe political movements in Europe, suggesting falsely that they illustrate a change of mood in European public opinion regarding the Ukrainian war.
The propaganda campaign about "Putin not being in the Epstein files" is a good opportunity to remind everyone that there is still a active International Criminal Court warrant against the Russian president for its role in the forced deportation of Ukrainian kids #BringKidsBackUA
The two Russian female tourists who mistakenly entered the Pendleton military base in the US.
Very unsurprising. The American anti-vaccine movement has always had the ambition to impose its harmful beliefs on the rest of the world. The interferences in Europe are far from new and have already started to intensify substantially since 2020 (COVID-19 pandemic). It will get worse.
Enfin, il suffit d'aller voir la dernière publication de la police locale pour voir que l'hypothèse d'un attentat est très improbable au regard du profil de la conductrice impliquée (femme de 56 ans, habitante de la petite ville où l'accident a eu lieu)
Pro-Russian and xenophobic disinformation are relying more and more on generative-AI. edmo.eu/publications...
A man who heroically tackled and disarmed one of the Bondi Beach gunmen has been unmasked. The hero has been named as 43-year-old Ahmed al Ahmed, a Sydney local who owns a fruit shop in Sutherland. www.news.com.au/national/nsw...
It has nothing to do with freedom and everything to do with finding a propaganda narrative to give to an authoritarian project a fake veneer of respectability and radicalizing people.
"La Russie n'est pas mon ennemi" : d'où viennent ces visuels viraux ? L'image d'une poignée de mains aux couleurs françaises et russes, accompagnée du slogan "La Russie n’est pas mon ennemi", a été très partagée sur les réseaux sociaux fin novembre. factuel.afp.com/doc.afp.com....
"Rejoignez-moi pour des moments authentiques!" Les faux comptes X de "patriotes français" administrés depuis le Nigéria ont encore des progrès à faire pour se crédibiliser.
On n'oublie pas. Très belle marche organisée par l' @afvt.bsky.social en hommage aux victimes pour commémorer le 10eme anniversaire des attentats du 13 novembre #13Unis #Liberté #Egalite #Fraternite
L'utilisation de la dialectique polarisante du "eux contre nous" dans une logique de confrontation existentielle ("à la fin") pour parler d'une élection est une très bonne illustration du danger que représente la radicalisation des discours politiques pour notre démocratie.

English and French posts claiming France's leader Emmanuel Macron ordered himself a luxury bunker worth 148 million euros are based on a fake report, falsified documents, and phony sources, likely the work of Russian propagandists, AFP Fact Check found. factcheck.afp.com/doc.afp.com....
