Putin-bots! Because freedom says you have to censor them! You cannot make this shit up.
the Guardian mods are terrified the ‘Putinbots’ will turn us all into pod people
We urge everyone to check out the Guardian’s latest and strangest attempts to build a wave of terror in its readership about Putinbots. In the thin guise of “discussing” (i.e. hyping) a book about how evil Putin controls the Russian web, they roll out their usual complement of ̶R̶u̶s̶s̶o̶p̶h̶o̶b̶e̶s̶ objective non-agenda-driven journalists to warn us not to listen to anyone who questions the official western geopolitical narrative , because they are all – all – working in the same Kremlin basement, and if we listen to anything they say they will zap us with Putinbot mind rays and we’ll turn into pod people.
This is why the Guardian has to silence them. Not because it is defending an indefensibly narrow imperialistic perspective, but because these people are dangerous and want to wreck our way of life.
Sapping our vital bodily fluids! Flouridating the water! Stop them at once! Because freedom!
