Artificial intelligence has officially infiltrated the battlefield and it’s getting weird, wild and petty.<\/p>\n

Welcome to the era of ‘slopaganda’ a cheeky blending of ‘sloppy’ and ‘propaganda’ where hyper-realisticAI<\/a> content is deployed as a weapon of mass digital distraction.<\/p>\n

Amid exploding tensions and a raging conflict in the Middle East, Iran<\/a> has shockingly out-maneuvered America on the digital front lines, unleashing a barrage of highly-produced, satirical AI images and videos explicitly targeting President Donald Trump<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The relentless digital trolling has surprisingly become the envy of American influencers.<\/p>\n

Spencer Hakimian, Founder of Tolou Capital Management, expressed the disbelief shared by many when he wrote on X: ‘After this war is over, we’re gonna need to bring the Iranian propaganda team over to Los Angeles<\/a> to teach us a thing or two.’<\/p>\n

Writer Jeet Heer echoed the sentiment, asking bluntly on the platform why ‘the only people good at AI are the Iranians?’<\/p>\n

It turns out that when it comes to world-class internet trolling, Iran’s diplomatic missions are giving keyboard warriors a serious run for their money to roast America’s leadership.<\/p>\n

There are a few jaw-dropping examples of Iran’s ‘slopaganda.’<\/p>\n

It turns out that when it comes to world-class internet trolling, Iran’s diplomatic missions are giving keyboard warriors a serious run for their money to roast America’s leadership<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

This illustration created in Los Angeles shows a Lego-style AI-generated war-themed video playing on an IPhone in front of President Donald Trump and US Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth. Shortly after news of a US-Iran ceasefire, an Iranian group released the Lego-style video lampooning Trump and declaring ‘Iran won’<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

This is just one of the latest in a wave of war-themed AI-generated propaganda flooding the internet<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

US Rep. Mark Takano questions Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. about Trump’s Truth Social posts during a hearing of the House Education And Workforce Committee on Capitol Hill today<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

The Iranian Embassy in Tajikistan’s ‘Divine Retribution’ is one.<\/p>\n

After President Trump controversially shared an AI-generated<\/a> image of himself as Jesus on Truth Social, the Iranian embassy in Tajikistan pounced.<\/p>\n

The embassy shared a viral, AI-generated clip that depicted an angry Jesus Christ violently attacking Trump and shoving him straight into the fires of Hell<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A voice is heard saying ‘Your reckoning has come’ as Jesus approaches the President before another voice yells ‘What is this?’<\/p>\n

The outrageous clip instantly racked up over 23 million views.<\/p>\n

The Iranian Embassy in Thailand also made its own take on the panic at the pump, capitalizing on fears of soaring energy costs amid the blockade.<\/p>\n

They posted a campaign poster-type image reading: ‘Trump $20.28 per gallon. Are you ready folks?’<\/p>\n

And it doesn’t stop there. The Iranian Embassy in South Africa posted its own memes.<\/p>\n

\n

Others show him crying and sweating in fear in his bedroom and binge-eating in his bedroom while looking at a piece of paper that says ‘Terms of ceasefire’<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

In one video post, they write: ‘And today’s popular music: ‘blockade’ by Trump.’<\/p>\n

The video shows a retro Trump with a mullet, singing and playing a song on the piano about the Strait of Hormuz.<\/p>\n

As part of the lyrics, the AI-Trump sings: ‘The Strait of Hormuz must be shut.’<\/p>\n

It’s unclear if there’s a centralized effort in Tehran producing the memes or if diplomats in different corners of the world are deploying them on their own.<\/p>\n

In yet another example, a pro-Iranian AI studio, teaming up with ‘Explosive Media’ put out a YouTube video showing LEGO-style videos designed to humiliate the US war effort<\/a>. Some show Trump with ripped pants on fire holding a sign in front of a crowd that says ‘Victory’ but from the back the sign says: ‘I am a loser.’<\/p>\n

Others show him crying and sweating in fear while binge-eating in his bedroom – looking at a piece of paper that says ‘Terms of ceasefire.’<\/p>\n

The video has since been banned by the video platform. Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei said the removal was a move to suppress ‘the truth’ about the war.<\/p>\n

‘In a land that proudly hosts Pixar, DreamWorks Animation, and The Walt Disney Company, an independent animated YouTube channel which had organically grown by depicting U.S. aggression & warmongering, and garnered millions of viewers was abruptly shut down!! Why?!’ he posted on X in response.<\/p>\n

High-ranking officials in Tehran are also getting in on the act, completely bypassing traditional diplomatic channels to speak directly, and mockingly, to Western publics.<\/p>\n

\n

But the state-sponsored trolling isn’t just limited to rogue embassy and pro-Iran accounts<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

High-ranking officials in Tehran are also getting in on the act, completely bypassing traditional diplomatic channels to speak directly, and mockingly, to Western publics<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Iranian hardliner Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf has launched his own English-language PR offensive on X, hoping to manipulate US public opinion and sow panic at the pumps.<\/p>\n

‘Enjoy the current pump figures,’ Ghalibaf taunted in a recent post. ‘With the so-called ‘blockade.’ Soon you’ll be nostalgic for $4$5 gas.’<\/p>\n

To twist the knife, he attached a screenshot of a Google Maps search showing gas stations literally blocks away from the White House.<\/p>\n

As Al Jazeera English pointed out, Ghalibaf has essentially repositioned himself.<\/p>\n

Rather than issuing predictable military threats or purely political statements, he has morphed into a wartime economic communicator, wielding inflation as a weapon against a weary western public.<\/p>\n

However, a mystery remains: there is fierce online debate over whether the X account actually belongs to the hardliner himself or is merely another phantom created by Tehran’s master propagandists.<\/p>\n

Whether the accounts are real or run by a shadowy team of expert trolls, one thing is glaringly obvious: weapons do not simply exist on the battlefield.<\/p>\n

It’s left the Economist to lament, ‘a joyless theocracy produces wittier videos than the Trump administration.’<\/p>\n

The US isn’t deploying anything back to retaliate.<\/p>\n

We reached out to the White House for comment. They did not immediately respond.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
