Last week documentary about the First World War was released in Russian that, as you can see, got its Allied propaganda posters a little mixed up.
While it’s easy to make fun of the show’s producers for getting it wrong, it might be nicer to view it as a compliment to Valve’s art team for making it so “authentic”.
If you want to see it play out, head to around 9:48 in the vid below.

Or maybe a tf2 fan had a hand in the graphics team.
This is old news.
Well it is Russia.
In Russia…. old news you!
Is propoganda like propaganda? What are the differentiating factors? When does something stop being propoganda and start being propaganda? So many questions/questians…
I watched the gif too long; Propergander. Badum-tsch~
If state-sponsored Russian media can convince its populace that Vladimir Putin is a human being and that MH17 was a Ukrainian inside job, this isn’t too far-fetched.
Also, not “Valve’s art-team” – it was one of TankTaur’s entries in the War! propaganda contest some years back.
