I noticed this odd story off German Twitter today.....thinking it was bogus. Well...no, it's not bogus. So the site with the story? DailyBeast.
The story goes this way....."Russia Says It’s Losing Because Ukraine Has Experimental Mutant Troops Created in Secret Biolabs."
The key to this.....'Russia says'. It's a fairly fake story, and probably originating from some Russian General trying to explain the losses at this point, and just makes up a story....which a journalist writes down and tries to explain to the public.
Here's the thing....500,000 Russians will read the story, discuss it with friends, and fully believe the story.
If I were Ukraine....I'd go and confirm the story.....with pictures of giant monster-like men, and start to broadcast attacks to come....from monster-corps #2. I'd even go and have a 'Doctor Evil' who does chatty stuff, with his wife 'Nurse Evil'.
The trouble with all of this....it gets into US/German news sources, and half of the public really believe this BS.
It might even reach a level where the Dallas Cowboys believe the story, and send a coach to the Ukraine....to recruit four guys for the defensive team.
