REGIS TREMBLAY—In this film, I document a historical and factual account of why America hates Russia and President Putin, beginning with Harry S. Truman dropping the Atomic bombs on Japan in 1945 to show Stalin and the Soviet Union “who was boss.” It continued at its height with Ronald Reagan calling it the “Red Menace,” “the evil empire,” and a “godless nation.” Every president since has demonized Russia, and since he was elected president of Russia in 2000, Vladimir Putin. The fact is, Russia is a peace-loving country and Russians only want the same things we want for our families: love, security, and a prosperous life.

Instead, a huge machinery of distraction —the media, entertainment (films and sports), phony politicians, etc.—hides the actual ruling class [the billionaires and financial blocs who make all the big decisions behind closed doors, in practical anonymity and without any accountability, acting in fact as a dictatorship), while the charade of bourgeois democracy plays on for the masses…

ALEX GUTENTAG—Last week, Matt Taibbi reported that CTIL’s Terp had previously worked with Jonathon Morgan, the person who created the Hamilton 68 project, which spread the conspiracy theory that Trump supporters and right-wing populists on social media were secretly Russian bots. “The impact of Hamilton on the domestic news landscape almost can’t be calculated,” explained Taibbi. MSNBC, he wrote, invoked Hamilton 68 at least 279 times to exaggerate the threat of Russian disinformation.
