Tough is the life of a Kremlin troll - @M_Simonyan is upset. Reminds me of my 1st interaction with one of them who DMd me for info when I was 20yo (2014). I sent her a mockery of their fake “news” & told to go fuck herself together with #Putin & co. Written in 🇷🇺

Attaching the translation of that convo. The first half of my reply includes multiple references to some famous examples of #Russian #propaganda #fakenews - didn't want to disappoint Alexandra from NTV straight away. 8 years on, NTV & their lies are still here but so I am 👻
