A new statement by russian dictator vladimir putin has once again sparked widespread discussion \u2014 not because of its political significance, but because of its sheer absurdity.<\/p>\n
\u25ab\ufe0f During a meeting with teachers, putin urged them to tell children how pods of killer whales tear polar bears apart. He suggested using this \u201cfood chain\u201d to explain to schoolchildren \u201cwhat kind of world we live in and why the \u2018special military operation\u2019 is being conducted.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u25ab\ufe0f A number of media outlets immediately debunked this claim: there is no documented case of such hunting in the wild. The only source from which the kremlin leader could have taken this idea is AI slop \u2014 fake videos of animals fighting, generated by artificial intelligence for clicks.<\/p>\n
\u25ab\ufe0f This episode perfectly exposes the dishonesty of russia\u2019s state apparatus. For years, officials have justified censorship, blocking media outlets and social networks, and restricting internet access as a supposed \u201cfight against disinformation and fake news.\u201d Yet the fact that the head of state himself consumes information garbage from the internet and presents it as official ideology shows that this \u201cfight\u201d has clearly gone in the wrong direction.<\/p>\n
The real purpose of restrictions and total internet control in russia is solely to build an isolated information space. In this way, the state seeks to control the minds of its citizens by feeding them kremlin-approved myths \u2014 from imperial history to \u201ckiller whales.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
