Is Trump Out of Touch, Senile, Nuts, or Something Worse?: It takes a degree of insanity to think that sharing a picture of yourself as pope or Luke Skywalker will somehow boost your plummeting poll numbers. <<< Ignorance of Surkov / Surkovian
Ignorance of Surkov / Surkovian
Somebody who does his social media stuff thought they were making Trump look good
No, they don’t think that. This very posting is titled “ignorance of Surkov / Surkovian” governing. You too are using electric media systems in spreading that ignorance.
The same people who do his social media stuff also knew that putting a King crown on him made him look strong. A red light saber has intentional mass mind / symbolism meaning. Fact Check: Yes, the White House posted an image of Trump captioned ‘Long live the king’. By Joey Esposito. Thursday, February 20, 2025
And not even Luke Skywalker, or any other Jedi, but they chose to give him a red lightsaber, which in the Star Wars universe denotes a bad guy
This is intentional, deliberate.
“The Hidden Author of Putinism”
“How Vladislav Surkov invented the new Russia”
By Peter Pomerantsev
November 7, 2014“I am the author, or one of the authors, of the new Russian system,” Vladislav Surkov told us by way of introduction. On this spring day in 2013, he was wearing a white shirt and a leather jacket that was part Joy Division and part 1930s commissar. “My portfolio at the Kremlin and in government has included ideology, media, political parties, religion, modernization, innovation, foreign relations, and …”—here he pauses and smiles—“modern art.” He offers to not make a speech, instead welcoming the Ph.D. students, professors, journalists, and politicians gathered in an auditorium at the London School of Economics to pose questions and have an open discussion. After the first question, he talks for almost 45 minutes, leaving hardly any time for questions after all."
“It’s his political system in miniature: democratic rhetoric and undemocratic intent.”
“As the former deputy head of the presidential administration, later deputy prime minister and then assistant to the president on foreign affairs, Surkov has directed Russian society like one great reality show.”
I’ll repeat it louder for extra emphasis:
“directed Russian society like one great reality show”
“his political system in miniature: democratic rhetoric and undemocratic intent”
That’s exactly what “The Empire” in Star Wars is about. It isn’t accidental. Did you miss last week’s Andor episodes? False-flag, deception, used to take over a society? How the soldiers are sacrificed to give television audiences across the galaxy a feeling that Imperial troops were the good guys?
George Lucas in the summer of 1986 and 1987 invited Sarah Lawrence college professor Joseph Campbell to Skywalker Ranch, California where Lucas himself filmed an interview with former White House director Bill Moyers. In that educational series for the audience / fans of Star Wars, this was said: “The fact that the evil power is not identified with any specific nation on this earth means you’ve got an abstract power, which represents a principle, not a specific historical situation. The story has to do with an operation of principles, not of this nation against that. The monster masks that are put on people in Star Wars represent the real monster force in the modern world. When the mask of Darth Vader is removed, you see an unformed man, one who has not developed as a human individual.”, “Darth Vader has not developed his own humanity. He’s a robot. He’s a bureaucrat, living not in terms of himself but in terms of an imposed system. This is the threat to our lives that we all face today. Is the system going to flatten you out and deny you your humanity, or are you going to be able to make use of the system to the attainment of human purposes? How do you relate to the system so that you are not compulsively serving it?”, “then we canceled the Declaration of Independence and rejoined the British conquest of the planet. And so we are now on one side of the pyramid. We’ve moved from one to two. We are politically, historically, now a member of one side of an argument. We do not represent that principle of the eye up there. And all of our concerns have to do with economics and politics and not with the voice and sound of reason.” - these are very brave and bold statements to be passing to the fans of Star Wars in 1986 / 1987 / 1988 - at the peak of George Lucas’ Hollywood power and world-wide fame, before the prequel films made him a mockery.

America’s gullibility crisis
by Zachary Basu“The truth is, it’s getting harder to describe the extent to which a meaningful percentage of Americans have dissociated from reality,” The Atlantic’s Charlie Warzel wrote in an article about hurricane conspiracies headlined: “I’m Running Out of Ways to Explain How Bad This Is.”
…
That “America’s gullibility crisis” story by Zachary Basu criticism was published in October 2024. That is before the second win of the White House by Donald Trump behaving bad-ass / shocking / promoting anti-goodness.
Let’s go back to October 2016 where Russians, the rock band Pussy Riot, predicted Donald Trump winning - because they too understand the gullibility crisis of USA population that can not resist Surkov / Surkovian governing techniques. A population who does not understand their own media entertainment addictions and ignorance of media ecology (Neil Postman, Marshall McLuhan, Bill Moyers, Joseph Campbell - which Lucas educated the audience with directly, etc). The Empire is entertaining, the Sith Lords are entertaining, the devil / Satan in The Bible is entertaining. Red color is associated with “The Devil” in the monomyth stories. People like trivia like this, entertainment science fiction, like the Quran, Bible, Torah.

MrBobGray827: And not even Luke Skywalker, or any other Jedi, but they chose to give him a red lightsaber, which in the Star Wars universe denotes a bad guy, usually a Sith. Somebody who does his social media stuff thought they were making Trump look good(impossible) but instead painted him as a villain, as he should be.
This subreddit is /r/HybridWarLost and not one mention of Surkovian methods in your reply. Your message of “but instead painted him as a villain” completely misses the point being raised by this subreddit.
“Surkov turned Russian politics into a bewildering, constantly changing piece of theater. He sponsored all kinds of groups, from neo-Nazi skinheads” - December 31, 2014. More than a decade ago. https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2014/12/31/bbcs_adam_curtis_on_the_contradictory_vaudeville_of_post-modern_politics.html
Elon Musk doing his Nazi symbolism on the world stage before entering the White House was not accidental. It is described in 2014 by the BBC / Adam Curtis in the video I just linked for you. But people can not resist mockery and mocking, absurd surreal comedy antics, people in USA eat it up every time since March 2013 when it became a global export of Russia / Conservative International 2013 movement system in the form of information warfare and strategy agreements. Surkovian politics are not accidental, they were mastered in 2013 (and all set in place, Internet Research Agency online, a year before Ukraine war in February 2014).
“What this film is going to suggest is that that defeatist response has become a central part of a new system of political control. And to understand how this is happening, you have to look to Russia, to a man called Vladislav Surkov, who is a hero of our time. Surkov is one of President Putin’s advisers, and has helped him maintain his power for 15 years [year 2014], but he has done it in a very new way. He came originally from the avant-garde art world, and those who have studied his career, say that what Surkov has done, is to import ideas from conceptual art into the very heart of politics. His aim is to undermine peoples’ perceptions of the world, so they never know what is really happening.” - https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2014/12/31/bbcs_adam_curtis_on_the_contradictory_vaudeville_of_post-modern_politics.html
Ignorance of Surkov / Surkovian
“I encounter forms of this attitude every day. The producers who work at the Ostankino channels might all be liberals in their private lives, holiday in Tuscany, and be completely European in their tastes. When I ask how they marry their professional and personal lives, they look at me as if I were a fool and answer: “Over the last twenty years we’ve lived through a communism we never believed in, democracy and defaults and mafia state and oligarchy, and we’ve realized they are illusions, that everything is PR.” “Everything is PR” has become the favorite phrase of the new Russia; my Moscow peers are filled with a sense that they are both cynical and enlightened. When I ask them about Soviet-era dissidents, like my parents, who fought against communism, they dismiss them as naïve dreamers and my own Western attachment to such vague notions as “human rights” and “freedom” as a blunder. “Can’t you see your own governments are just as bad as ours?” they ask me. I try to protest—but they just smile and pity me. To believe in something and stand by it in this world is derided, the ability to be a shape-shifter celebrated. Vladimir Nabokov once described a species of butterfly that at an early stage in its development had to learn how to change colors to hide from predators. The butterfly’s predators had long died off, but still it changed its colors from the sheer pleasure of transformation. Something similar has happened to the Russian elites: during the Soviet period they learned to dissimulate in order to survive; now there is no need to constantly change their colors, but they continue to do so out of a sort of dark joy, conformism raised to the level of aesthetic act.
Surkov himself is the ultimate expression of this psychology. As I watch him give his speech to the students and journalists, he seems to change and transform like mercury, from cherubic smile to demonic stare, from a woolly liberal preaching “modernization” to a finger-wagging nationalist, spitting out willfully contradictory ideas: “managed democracy,” “conservative modernization.” Then he steps back, smiling, and says: “We need a new political party, and we should help it happen, no need to wait and make it form by itself.” And when you look closely at the party men in the political reality show Surkov directs, the spitting nationalists and beetroot-faced communists, you notice how they all seem to perform their roles with a little ironic twinkle.” ― Peter Pomerantsev, Nothing Is True and Everything Is Possible: The Surreal Heart of the New Russia, 2014
