propaganda. We urge foreign authorities to adhere to "international standards for tabulations and registering the results", therefore we ourselves know and practice such standards, therefore pretending that we do not is inaccurate. Note that the last proposition is to be *deduced* and not uttered flatly, which makes it more convincing because the target (you and me) comes to it by himself. So that in fact, a comment which appears to deal with a foreign event is in fact targeted at a domestic audience. Note, lastly, the inversion of reality which is one of the hallmarks of this neo-nazi administration: the implicit statement of our obedience to fair and controlled standards is the inversion of the unfairness and lack of control over the presidential election. The same inversion mechanism can be observed over and over again about nearly any topic (e.g. Social Security, Iraq)
