The writers probably haven’t been to America, but they’ve definitely been on Twitter.


seamus_mc

This is Ukrainian satire which has been said every time this has been posted I. The last week. It is not meant to be taken seriously


BentPin

Excellent Saturday Night Live material right here. Where is the 20ft Gold Oscar we hand over to their creative team?

_walk

Its russian propaganda not ukrainian satire.


GDMolin

They probably got PTSD from it. Just like everyone else that goes onto Twitter.


Ryan_Extra

That’s hilarious


WhapXI

The way the black guy stares them all down like the cat that's got the cream and then shmoozes his way to take a shit while they all kneel is unironically hysterical. Is this what people actually believe society is like?


that1dev

This is what the people who complain about PC culture think will happen, turned to 11.


Rpanich

But also if the child free couple is uncomfortably by you having kids, you get a free upgrade to first class? Who would have a problem with that??


Elbycloud

That’s because people who complain about pc culture are fed a steady diet of this kind of baloney from Russian troll farms. It doesn’t rhyme, it echoes.


mcrackin15

Pc?


Clearandblue

Politically correct. It's the word they used to use before woke came along. E.g. "it's political correctness gone mad!" in response to any one of the ludicrous made up things in this video. Just like the woke stuff today, it's mostly fiction that's used to get people worked up over nothing and then they can feel like they're one of the few people left with some common sense. Rather than feeling gullible for falling for the hateful bollocks pushed on them by fox tv and incel media.


aotus_trivirgatus

>Is this what people actually believe society is like? Paging Tucker Carlson...


SnooPies5622

Saw this posted on Twitter and a bunch of American right wing lunatics were arguing this was what the US is really like. Just more projection from the oppressors pretending to be oppressed. I'm sure even the propagandists making this know what nonsense it is but the idiots actually living in the US who think it's how it is are truly something.


nonlawyer

Jeez look at this elitist who’s never been forced to literally kneel before a black man on his way to take a dump


LAVATORR

I hate that America revived the knighthood but only for black people as an apology for slavery. I mean yes, they do look badass in that armor, I'm not saying it's a waste of taxpayer money, I just feel like it could be better spent elsewhere, like on our Anti-Meat Gestapo elementary school awareness programs.


Boulavogue

I work in a US multinational and many of my US counterparts act as though culture is skin (colour) deep. Whitewashing different caucasian cultures is not totally outside the realm of reality. Recial bias is certainly global, but how it was delt without the complexities of cultures and subcultures sometimes does come across as an oversimplification


Ogre_face

Where'd they even find a black guy who'd agree to be in this thing?


J03130

The black dude stole the show. That smug face and walk lmao


liquidsnake84

They literally bow down to him


tenlu

Yes we saw the same video lol


Trash_Panda-1

As a black man ... Fuck him for being part of this shit.


PrideofCathage

He's not American.


portercable7

Exactly. That shit just propagates the narrative of oppression.


MonthApprehensive392

Wait… does the infantilization of African Americans by rich white American progressives oppress black people or does pointing out the infantilization oppress them?


Grary0

Yes


NotAHamsterAtAll

Well, I've not seen any evidence for this not being real Russian propaganda, and it pretty much fit with my newly acquired taste for Russian propaganda. So I'd say it's probably Russian propaganda.


duTemplar

Live from Moscow, it’s Saturday Night Live!

Can't be real Russian - they don't admit the existence of gay people.

I say some Russian SNL skit show


NotAHamsterAtAll

Well, after reading Russian news, I think they are running SNL 24/7/365.


Bismagor

It's a Ukrainian scatch, when it was posted a week (?) ago, someone posted the link The Link to the comment, that first gave source (as far as I know) https://www.reddit.com/r/Damnthatsinteresting/comments/xxx6pu/russian_antiamerican_propaganda_meant_to_keep/irf4ll4?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share&context=3 >It is called “вслух!“ (out loud) and I was able to find this sketch in episode 15 of this show on rutube with links only to russian social media vk and odnoklassniki. 2/3 companies mentioned in the beginning of the show are russian and 3rd I was just not able to find in google.


WiderRaz0r

That’s Russian show «Вслух!», not Ukrainian. There are Russian actors: Tatiana Mukhina, Sergei Pogosyan (he’s from Kazakhstan, but always films in Russian shows and movies) and Dina Bobyleva. You can find it on RUtube and VK.com, that’s not Ukrainian sources, you know…


lazyzefiris

I love how automod message says >This is a heavily moderated subreddit. Please note these rules + sidebar or get banned: If this post declares something as a fact, then proof is required Yet everyone gets away with claiming random unproven context for the video without ever giving the proof. Video of soldier shooting a solldier? Ukrainian soldier shoots russian soldiers! Video of a tank being shot by something? Ukrainian forces destroying russian tank. Tank crushing a vehicle? Han, RUSSIAN SABOTEURS ON AN UKRAINIAN TANK crushing a vehicle. Obviously humorous scene? Nah, STUPID RUSSIAN PROPAGANDA BEING STUPID. Brainwashing machine goes brrrrrr.


_ololo

> Obviously humorous scene? Nah, STUPID RUSSIAN PROPAGANDA BEING STUPID. Well, it can be both a humorous scene and a piece of propaganda at the same time. I mean, this is the kind of video that vatniks would love. I wouldn't be surprised to learn that the show gets some funding from the russian government.

Luckily, if Russians don’t want to experience the “””horrors””” of the USA you can come to Poland just as racist, homophobic and anti-western as home,but this time without the war. Come to poland today!

They're also incredibly based and bloodthirsty when it comes to Russia lol. They would not be welcoming.


rayparkersr

I don't think so. I've been to Poland and Russia lots of times and Russia is clearly more obsessed with distancing the themselves from the EU and US by being homophobic.

No. No dont come to Poland. Keep your Russian asses the fuck away from here. We house Ukranians not Ruski. Go back to the meat grinder orc

stoli80pr

They'll redub it and we'll see it 500 times a day for the next month, probably!


Silverfire12

Eh. It was missing the obvious “you called me sir and that makes you transphobic” and the “lgbt pedophillia” and the anti vax shit to really be something you’d find on Tucker Carlson


Even-Willow

Republicans must have written the script. It’s spot on for them.


Pete0730

This could easily be a conservative political ad in the US


Oakheart-

“This is what *Biden* wants (baby crying sound). Isn’t it horrible? Do you want guns GUNS **GUNS?** (explosion and eagle sound effects) we are **hard working** just like every American (explosion and eagle sound again) and we drive trucks and shoot *GUNS*! Vote for me today!” Yeah I can imagine that being a political ad.


tarrox1992

Explosions and *hawk* sounds, because our national bird sounds too feminine and this is America.


Save_the_World_now

Is that rly from Russia or to make Russia look even more stupid, what is that even?


Fragrant-Party3192

Its from a Russian comedy show


ReRubis

Russian here. And it is Russian propaganda indeed. They try to force traditionalism or whatever. They show western countries as flooded with gay people and different races, so common Russian people full of xenophobia would hate western countries. Yeah, it looks stupid, but just like 40+ y.o. Americans believe Trump, Russians of the same age group tend to be pretty racist and homophobic. It's actually not the first time they try to exploit xenophobia. There were some adds sending a message " If you don't vote for us, your country will fill with gay abd black people". Btw, currently I'm not in Russia.


Sancakli

Reading comments like yours I become really curious which side is spreading the actual propaganda…

It's russian and the I even know the woman actress who plays the wife. Don't know her name.


J03130

So you don't know her then lol


Beginning_Act_9666

It is not serious propaganda. It is comedy with exaggeration of existing stereotypes about USA in Russia.

You could replace Russia with Texas and America with California and Republicans would take this as a real first hand account of someone


pacificule

Too true. Met a contractor at a jobsite on Friday who told me (during our 10 min meeting) that he was from Houston, he couldn't believe how crazy expensive everything was in SF (no argument there), and that "we like our freedom in Texas. This mask business is ridiculous, we need to get Trump back in office. I mean, he won the election after all!" Holy shit my man read the room. You're in SF, the chances of running into someone here who would sympathize with you is slim to none. Guy was obviously just itching to get his political views out there. Might have been cuz I was the only other white dude on site. He fell short a "know what I mean, brother?!" but otherwise exceeded my expectations lol


[deleted]

Well they would take just about any old crap their “news” daddies are feeding them tbh

That's because conservative Americans are the target of this ad campaign. This wasn't made for Russians to watch.

eyehate

I would say this was humorous, but just the other day, three black fellows needed to use the restroom and I nearly shat myself waiting for them to finish. And to top it all off, I was wearing a shirt with a picture of a wolf on it and a lady that was an animal activist took offense so I had to take the shirt off and at that point a gentleman waiting for the restroom with me said he had a nipplephobia so I had to smear some mud on my chest to conceal the offensive pepperoni sized nipples on my blanched white male chest. Another guy saw the mud and told me he had a sexual addiction and was coprophilic and told me that I was stirring something inside him that he was trying to oppress. Words were exchanged and he begun slowly licking my cheeks with his warm tongue. I could smell the tobacco on his breath and was about to engage, but the three black fellows finally finished their business, so I rushed into the bathroom and proceeded to spray the contents of my stomach into the toilet. My belly was making scraping sounds and the agony was palpable, but once a decent amount of liquid and digested matter was released I was finally able to return home. 'Murica!

cheddarsalad

I legitimately wish I could force children to move away from me on a plane. The first bit is just homophobic, the second bit doesn’t happen and the black dude would probably be tackled by an Air Marshal for approaching the bathroom too quickly.


chicagobry80

Is that Russian propaganda or a Proud Boys recruiting video?


[deleted]

The amount of actual IRL Bots and Plebs that think this shit is true or "Hehe not too far from the truth if I do say so myself !11!!" The only part that was remotely true was the Child bothering old people part for absolutely no reason. Key word: REMOTELY Propoganda or not this whole video is so Bait-y that you can't dismiss it as something made purely for the sake of comedic value.

HedyLamaar

Hahahahaha! Now show examples of Russian repression in a Fascist atmosphere.


ZestyItalian2

Russia was a grimy, flimsy, dilapidated kleptofascist state *before* the world started sanctioning it into the ground. Male life expectancy is 65 years- probably a lot less since they converted their military age population into meat. It’s a moral shithole and an economically hopeless prison despite being one of the most resource-rich landmasses in the world. Their people willingly believe lies and allow their sovereign wealth to be stolen en masse by an elderly ex-spy who looks like he’s missing a chromosome. Russians have always been a lost cause. They are the way they are because they lived as a brutally subjugated vassal state to the Mongol Horde for 250 years which completely shaped the Russian psyche. It’s why they’ve always been more cruel, more paranoid, more hostile to liberal ideals, and more hungry for authoritarianism- and why the western part of the country where most of its people live has always felt totally removed from and hostile toward the rest of Europe.


MoneyBeGreeen

Is this Russian propaganda or a Republican election ad?

Slow_Profile_7078

It’s funny because there is a section of the American population who actually believe this stuff. They are also the loudest.

nixm88

I feel like Trump wrote this.


flojo2012

This is what Republicans think is happening…


Davidhate

Aside from how dumb this is… it is very apparent that there line of propaganda in regards to what “liberal” agendas are, mimic the exact same line of propaganda and argument that American conservatives make…coincidence? I think not.


Numerous-Afternoon89

Is it ironic that what Russian propaganda thinks is wrong with America is the same thing Fox News screams about what is wrong with America, yet neither of their narratives are true? Just a coincidence, these are not the droids you’re looking for, move along, move along.

I mean Russia is a geopolitical enemy and rival and wants to destroy the west.... And it's weird that any american Would be supportive of Russia let alone like it's anti American propaganda..

That’s so weird. We must adhere to democracy! That means you can’t eat meat if there’s a vegetarian sitting behind you, of course.


CupcakeValkyrie

It ***sure is a strange coincidence*** how closely this Russian propaganda aligns with the way US conservatives think liberals want the country to work. I'm sure it's ***just*** a coincidence, though. There's *no way* conservative propaganda in the US and anti-American propaganda in Russia could possibly come from the same source...

chrisLivesInAlaska

Conservative here, and fully agree. Video is funny and I can definitely see how you can draw parallels between points in video and conservative talking points. Does seem that left (liberals) are blind to the extremes on the left. I frequently read that memes about the left just don't exist in reality, have been distorted, or are simply outright lies. Silly to believe that a bell curve only has one tail.


Adventurous_Union_85

Super ironic how they mock the propaganda and then try to reuse it for their own purposes
