Even though I said I would never do it, I find myself rolling through a bunch of YouTube shorts. Recently, there are a bunch of clips of Vladimir Putin with dramatic music playing and him making dramatic entrances into various events. Then the comments are all about what a great and amazing leader he is. During the campaign, I was getting a bunch of similar nonsense with Trump walking around while "The sound of silence" dramatically played in the background. I can't help but think it is all Russian propaganda.... Why it's getting pumped into my algorithm or whatever is what I am confused about.
