Observations I had:
- DEATH TO THE MPLA meme
refers to a clip from the 2012 video game Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 in which military leader Jonas Savimbi rallies his troops against the MPLA...
it became a meme 3 years ago, and the whole "meme" is having a screenshot of the clip in the middle of random videos... that's the meme, just having a hidden dude that screams death to the MPLA in random videos.
- The Russian sleep experiment, I'm sure most of the people heard of it, basically it was this story of Soviet scientists torturing war prisoners through not making them sleep and using gas on them until they became barely human and were promised freedom if they survived... the story is obviously false and originates from a 2010s creepy pasta post, the story got extremely popularized that it even got made into short films, what makes me believe it's a psyop is that it serves as a counter point to Abu Gharib and Guantanamo Bay, it's also conveniently called "Russian sleep experiment" and not "Soviet sleep experiment", it's a lie protected by "it's actually made in creepy pasta so it's just a horror story not propaganda".
This is definitely true post the original Modern Warfare 2. In that game the Americans end up being the bad guys and you kill the top American general in the finale. You also spend the first mission as a CIA agent taking part in a terrorist attack. No way that kind of plot would be acceptable in Call Of Duty today. Ever since the start of the Black Ops series right after MW2 the plots have gotten more and more propagandistic. They also had to fudge the plot of the original Modern Warfare 3 and retcon some stuff from the first Modern Warfare game to make the US the good guys again. Then there was advanced warfare with the Kevin Spacey cameo, then the modern warfare reboot where real life American war crimes were falsely attributed to Russia.
