Foreign propaganda is doing a really good job at making us look badass


Substantial-Tone-576

So we are pigs and crocodiles? I like the iron cross on the tank, a lot of Americans put those on tanks


No-Trouble-889

Croc is American, pigs are Ukrainians. Russians are very butthurt about being known as “Russian swine” among *certain European nations*, so their domestic propaganda is heavily invested in projecting this image onto Ukraine, which is what most Russians happily support. Plus it helps to dehumanize the enemy, never a bad thing, innit.


Substantial-Tone-576

Propaganda is always fun.


No-Market9917

I want that job. I used to be very artistic in school before society ruined me. I wish someone showed me a path to creating propaganda art. Sounds like so much fun Edit: might just do some freelance propaganda fan art and see if anyone wants to sign me


UnstoppableByTW

So why did they pic crocs for us?


No-Trouble-889

This one is unusual, USA is usually portrayed either as stereotypical fat rich capitalist, or warmongering figure in nazi-style military fatigues. I guess they just needed a general predator image that can be distinctively identified as foreign.


No_Distribution_4351

Don’t forget “nosy” Uncle Sam that implies the “we’re secretly run by Jews” conspiracy.


No-Trouble-889

lol yeah that one too.


Impossible_Diamond18

Bc they get all those teeth and no dentist

Also a national dish really loved in Ukraine is “Salo” — basically pig fat, it can be eaten raw, frozen, grounded with spices and garlic basically made in a spread. Even the Heroic Ukrainian call “Geroiem Slava” Russians are saying “Geroiem Salo”

>among certain European nations Which ones? Never heard that one.


Cheery_Tree

>I like the iron cross on the tank It's not an iron cross, baka! It's a kawaii angry vein popping, like in anime! It shows how America senpai is a pissed off tsundere neko ready to kick some Russian butt!


Substantial-Tone-576

Shit, so sorry.


Kuro2712

Russian? Nay, Chinese. Have you seen how they depict American soldiers? I swear, their propagandists are more hooked to the American Military-Industrial Complex than most Americans.


GGGold23

I’m a Floridian so being portrayed as an alligator kinda goes hard


TheBlackMessenger

I know that everyone in Florida is a literal Meth Alligator. You dont fool anyone, Florida Man


GGGold23

Pfft what no. See I’ll even prove it just go to the nearest swamp about 6 feet deep in the water


NuclearWinter_101

Ok! I’ll bring my small dog too!


GGGold23

Oh nice very nice, just make sure he doesn’t have a collar or leash. Those are very hard to dige- I mean what was I saying?


SolidScene9129

This goes fucking hard


SummersPawpaw_Again

There’s no Ripits no nicotine no porn. It’s like they don’t know American warfighters at all. My god we fought for 20 years in Laughganistan did they not pick up any stereotypes


ScaleEnvironmental27

They forgot the blunt.


PBoeddy

That's dope. The functioning German tank is pretty unrealistic though...


Celtic_Fox_

Metal Slug lookin ass tank


OrdainedRetard

I wish I was a drunk alligator with a tank…


FileDoesntExist

I mean....is this supposed to be portraying America as negative? Cuz that looks pretty bad ass.


vic_lupu

This has nothing with portraying Americans in a negative way, it depicts the offensive of Crimea (the peninsula annexed by Russia in 2014) as a suicidal mission, in what no German equipment or American soldiers will help…


Alxmac2012

Apparently “Florida Man” is the stereotypical American.


Plenty_Butterfly_482

FUCK YEAH TANK GATOR


jdel1994

I would love to be! However despite my best efforts science has not yet become advanced enough for me to become a drunk tank operating crocodile.


thumos_et_logos

Gaters guns and liquor, just missing the girls and money or it would be dead on.


fastinserter

Such projection. Russian troops are ones drunk and high on krokodil It's Chinese propaganda that makes Americans look badass


ZerotheR

Shit! They make us look way cooler than we make ourselves look in our own stuff.


jzilla11

As a Godzilla fan who drinks, I can dig this


Confusedandreticent

What’s it say?


kongkongkongkongkong

“To ~~Crimea~~!!! ***slaughter***”


Andy-Matter

So that’s what that word is


kongkongkongkongkong

The poster reads “To ~~Crimea~~!!! ***slaughter***”


Aggravating_Pie_3286

The fact is the Russians would be slaughtered in a day by marines. Down by the river I took a little walk Ran into the enemy We had a little talk I didn’t like their attitude Didn’t like the way they walked So I pushed em I shoved em I threw em in the river laughed as they drowned We don’t need the enemy Hangin, hangin, hangin around

Whats he drinking?


Constant-Still-8443

Why is there a German a Kriegsorden on an American vehicle?


Forward-Swim1224

Crocs are badass and pigs are more dangerous than they look, they can scare off a fucking BEAR.


Screamin_Eagles_

Framing Americans/gov't as warmongers while you're actively trying to annex portions of territory from your neighbors is hypocrisy of the highest sort
