Russian propaganda is hard at work trying out new strategies!
While it appears that the moronic alcoholic General Gurulyov was allowed to state on state TV😁 that the lies must be stopped, there's clearly something else at work here.
They're preparing their populace for the defeat. Of the army. Not of Putin’s regime. They're trying to preserve the latter by making people believe that the former made bad decisions based on faulty information from the front.
Gurulyov: “This is the distortion of the initial data used for making decisions based on it. So if the initial data is crooked - the decision will be crooked. This is where the problem lies.”
