Congressman Congratulates US Navy Postcard with Peter the Great Cruiser

78
Surprisingly, so far, US Congressman Brian Mast has not been officially listed as “Kremlin agent”. This is an American parliamentarian who unsuccessfully congratulated the US Navy on its founding day.

Congressman Congratulates US Navy Postcard with Peter the Great Cruiser




Congressman Mast, who is a retired member of the US military operation in Afghanistan, posted on his microblog on Twitter the birthday card “Happy Birthday, US Navy!” At the same time, the Russian cruiser Peter the Great flaunted on the card. The side number was jammed at the warship.

The fact that instead of the American warship the congressman placed the Russian one did not immediately pay attention. A mistake was pointed out by one of the American journalists by posting a corresponding post on a social network.

After that, a Republican MP representing the state of Florida was ridiculed in the American public.



Here are some common American comments on Brian Mast's congratulatory post:

This person should at least be different from our ships from Russian ships. Unfortunately, he represents our staff in Congress. I just can't believe it.

If this is true, then I have a question: can a congressman be so stupid?

Ahaha, let him thank his assistant, who picked up for him the image of "Peter the Great."

And I have long said that Republicans are loyal to Russia.

One of Twitter users, a man with the nickname Capt (N), after reporting an error in a congressman post, noted that the problem with errors in the "identification" of weapons is "international." He gave examples of how people in Russia are wrong, using photos of NATO military equipment on holiday posters.

        Don't talk nonsense. There is no designer girl in nature. The postcard goes through a dozen approvals, this is just an ideological sabotage. And everyone who put their signatures on the project should fly out of warm offices for "official inconsistency." They saw everything perfectly and understood that they were letting it go into circulation.

          I don't know about postcards, but in 2018, on June 22, at an event dedicated to the beginning of World War II, in the city where I live, Len. region the deputy of the city municipality, "from young and early" issued "his historical version", literally: "On June 22, the Russian Federation joined the anti-Hitler coalition and entered World War II." What, huh? And no matter where he flew, at 19 elections were again held, continuing his career. To comments and indignation, zero emotions, as they say.

We do not even trust the repair in our apartment to a person who does not understand this. Then, how can we trust the choice of future rulers of the country to people who are absolutely not versed in government matters, and who often do not differ (excuse me, this is a pavda) with a clear mind and a bright memory?

              How do you imagine the procedure for determining who has the right to vote and who does not? In my opinion, I do not insist, this can lead to a very large split in the country, as it would not lead to Citizens, and alas, to non-citizens with the prospect of turning into subhumans. You voiced the "slippery" proposal, it is very reminiscent of the policy of the well-known European country of the 30s and 40s ....

                If people are unable to understand the variety of proposed candidates for all kinds of elections, then the way out of the situation may be, for example, to reduce the number of elective posts. It is not necessary to solve the problem "head-on"

                  For this, there must be Education, but not the Unified State Exam, responsibility before the law, without taking into account patronage and "golden origin", at least. Although the current government does not need educated citizens, it needs a herd, dependent, stupid and obedient.

            Why do you think everyone is dumber than yourself? You see that posters are postcards, crap, I also see that everyone sees and understands what they mean on the site. I am sure and the customer saw. Only the essence of the customer representative, rotten. The ideological diversion, the next.

        There is such a thing. It is especially annoying that on May 9, the authorities stubbornly drape the Mausoleum and sit on a separate site, embarrassed that it was on it that J.V. Stalin stood accepting the victory parade in 1945, and therefore not wanting to associate himself with it. Somehow in May I went to the bank which "Sberbank" and saw a congratulatory poster on Victory Day, which depicted a girl with flowers in a soldier's uniform and a cap. What caught my eye was that on the buttons and an asterisk on the cap, the image of the hammer and sickle was carefully retouched, apparently because Comrade Gref is ashamed of his belonging to the victorious country, and therefore prefers impersonal symbols and also distances himself from Russia by calling her loser ie "downshifter". While the liberota controls the education system, we will continue to have more and more "girls-designers" who cannot distinguish a tree from a birch, not to mention historical events.

    The fact itself, of course, is cool good - to the congressman to congratulate the American sailors with a well-recognizable Russian cruiser (in their place, I would have also shuddered from such "symbolism", as if, for example, the SovFed congratulated Russian sailors with a postcard with the image of an American ship)!
    And so, everywhere now there are enough "postcard designers", all sorts of different ones, because now even a young "user" can bungle any virtual postcard with the help of a simple computer program!
    For some reason, I remember that she was just as illiterate (and, in general, very blasphemous, as for me, after all, my mother suffered until the end of her life from the moral and psychological trauma received in childhood during repeated bombings, when people were deaf from the roar of explosions, everything around was shaking and the shallow rural cellar where they were hiding was completely filled with the suffocating gases of exploding bombs), a Russian postcard-poster for May 9 with (well-known in our, not so narrow, military-historical circles) an image of the crew of a Hitler bomber "in business"!

          At least before inserting into the layout, hammer the photo into the image search. And then the people today went cunning, instantly they will get the hack. There, the explosion diagram of the predecessor of the stormtrooper (MKb.42 (H)) on the Kalashnikov monument, EMNIP, did not even go unnoticed for a week. smile

    The error is clear.
    In fact, Soviet ships, outwardly, always looked more menacing than American ones. And after the transition to VPU-and even more so.

      The State Archive of the Navy was noted ...... maybe this is a reminder to our sailors about Tsushima, and the lower cossack about the 41st year? the reminder is also expensive

          No need to rave! There is a customer who not only has to approve the project, but also accept the order. Here's a representative of the customer - on the street.

              What are you carrying? Do you think the printing house hangs up posters or something? Yes, the order to the contractor, as a rule, comes in the most generalized form, but the one who then takes it controls the manufacturing steps. No printing house will not print the finished product without the approval of the layout. Stop flogging nonsense.

    the person with the nickname Capt (N), after reporting the error in the post of the congressman, noted that the problem with errors in the "identification" of weapons is "international". He gave examples of how mistakes are made in Russia, using photos of NATO military equipment on holiday posters.

    The man under the nickname Capt (N) is an inveterate Russophobe, a former captain of the 1st rank from the Armed Forces of Ukraine, who, as a young officer, moved from the Black Sea Fleet to the Ukrainian fleet. He showed his essence at the "air base" when he pushed through the idea of ​​leaving the Black Sea Fleet from Sevastopol, where he then lived and in every possible way spread rot on those who defended the dignity of our fleet and our armed forces. In general, the type is still the same, and it was not for nothing that he immediately cited the example of Russia, although he himself, being Svidomo, fled in shame from Crimea not to Kiev, where he was accused of treason, but to our country. So it’s interesting that this type was referred to - even now he does not try to hide his rotten essence, and will always shit on Russia.

    There is a customer who coordinates the project, and the office is lucky, boasts how beautifully he organized everything. And then another acceptance of the order

    The customer may eat. But how much he knows and how well versed in military technology. How many customers can recognize the American tank on the top postcard (at the airfield’s comrade) ??? Those who make the order most often do not have such knowledge. He has money, he was instructed to make a card for the holiday (banner, poster). Next up is the designers.

    I was engaged in printing for almost 20 years before retirement. And out of the mass of disks with good quality photographs, 95% of photographs of ground vehicles are by no means equipment of the USSR / Russia. Some don't even have anything to identify their nationality. Therefore, they take what is more beautiful. So. Not a customer, not a performer in this "not a snout". And there is no deliberate ideological sabotage here. And a couple of times I came across a situation when they tried to put on the cover what was "more beautiful", without thinking at all that it was an American tank (for example) or ours.
    But our native Ministry of Defense at least until 2015 and did not try to release a similar disk with photos of our equipment.
