A week ago, I posted our collaboratively made video against the Party of Crooks and Thieves. Here are the first results of its distribution. 863,253 views on YouTube. It was downloaded 3,500 times in high quality for sharing via Bluetooth, mobile phones, and local networks:
you can do that here: OUT (HQ).mp4 A lot of squealing from the supporters of the Party of Crooks and Thieves and their youth movements. Whether the experiment with distribution via SMS worked is unclear—apparently not. We need to come up with other technical solutions. Overall, I suggest we consider the experiment a success. In one week, we reached almost 1% of voters with absolutely no spending, which is quite good. And this is an active 1%. These are the people who, to a large extent, shape everyone else’s political views. Of course, there were repeat views, views by minors, and so on, but in any case it’s clear that this method of aggressively promoting slogans and ideas works. It’s not the Channel One zombie box (a slang term for television propaganda), but still, it’s our own little answer to Chamberlain (a Russian idiom meaning a defiant response). Let’s launch another wave of distribution. Everyone should do what they can, wherever they can. Networks, websites, emails, SMS, show it to your grandmother and neighbors on a screen, send it to your nephew’s phone, share it with neighbors on the local network. The maxim "United Russia is the Party of Crooks and Thieves" must be permanently imprinted in the minds of our fellow citizens. And there is good reason for that: it’s true. Yes, and one important update. Everyone is asking: is this legal? My answer: yes, it is. It has been tested in court.
