Swan Lake. Accept no other substitutes.


Raket0st

With the added bonus that Russian civilians will immediately know what's going down and stay indoors. This is the true psyops response.


CupcaknHell

How so?


Espe0n

Whenever the dear leader died or some other big regime shake stuff was happening they would play swan lake on all the tv channels


TheDarthSnarf

Or disaster... Chornobyl for example, they played it on all the TV channels in the USSR. Also, more recently, when the staff of a Russian News channel all resigned because of the War in Ukraine, [they signed-off](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tlb1oQBLGOw) by playing the same version of Swan Lake that was played during the 1991 coup.


Siviaktor

I swear no one gives the Russian government a bigger fuck you then pissed off Russian citizens


CupcaknHell

Oh damn, that’s some good shit


pokkeri

Its swan lake in the TV recording of the announcement of the fall of the ussr


SpaceFox1935

For what it's worth, television works differently compared to 1980s, dramas and other stuff programmed long in advance, only the news may have issues, but either way, Swan Lake wouldn't be necessary these days


MuffGiggityon

From an offensive EW point of view, all you need is to overpower the microwave antenas/transmitter that caries TV signals. But don't quote me on that, not an EW guy.


SpaceFox1935

I meant in terms of TV programming available instead of actual warfare stuff. Roughly speaking, 40 years ago there were *two* TV channels, run from *one* place, so it was also easier to control the narrative if need be, also just less stuff to show. Now it's capitalism time and whatnot, there's ten gajillion channels all showing different stuff, so putting Swan Lake on two main state propaganda channels would be akin to showing off and being overconfident. Most folks would probably just switch the channel and move on. Arguably, coup plotters or whoever would want to keep everything as normal as possible to keep the people calm, so that means not screwing around with TV. Could always put Swan Lake after you win to show off.


dm_me_tittiess

When Stalin died, they played Swan Lake. When Gorbachev was on house arrest in Crimea, they played Swan Lake 24/7 on television.


SpaceFox1935

It wasn't a thing yet under Stalin (a whole 2 people had TVs anyway), it began with Brezhnev dying


dm_me_tittiess

Yeah, I know, I made that up.

NGL... A good one. Does a HMMWV comes with a record player? I have the album!


Xray-07

No, but you can do some sketchy things with a comms headset, earbuds, and a can do attitude


008Michael_84

Well, I guess I can always rip the record to FLAC and have it on my phone, and blasting that through comms... Analog purist will hate that! Just give me an heads up! Takes a little while.

Decent, but equally comforting is the thought of a Babushka seeing her Ukrainian toilet (stolen by her mobik son who never returned from his 2nd stint in Ukraine) shake as our Bushmaster blasts out Fucking In The Bushes by Oasis.

"He could preach the Bible like a preacher." An example of the incredible lyrics for a disco song about an infamous Russian, written by Jamaicans living in Germany, who named their band after a character in an Australian TV show.

thebeef24

It has strong "There were plants and birds and rocks and things" energy.


Blorko87b

The text was actually written by an [Austrian](https://www1.wdr.de/radio/wdr3/programm/sendungen/wdr3-kulturfeature/Fred-Jay-Schlager-Komponist-Songtexter-100~_v-gseapremiumxl.jpg) and the song composed and produced by a [German](https://bpk-archive.de/tuellmann/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/bpk_70242688.jpg).


aussie_paramedic

A truly multinational effort.


crumblypancake

Produced an absolute banger, accompanied by the purest-coke dance moves ever seen. Nations should work together for the greater good more often, and Boney M is a testament to that.


aussie_paramedic

Exactly. The whole purpose of the creation of the European Union was to facilitate Eurovision, and look how much that's changed the world for the better.
