"Z-Anon"
Escobar has been accused of being part of "Z-Anon", a narrative control team that promote an official opposition narrative that world events are leading towards a multipolar world thanks to especially Russia.
“The Russian snail offensive technique, combined with the mincing machine technique, has already, gradually, knocked out the extensive bunker system set up by NATO in Donbass, superior to the Maginot Line. These methods achieved a ten for one kill ratio in favor of Russia in relation to Ukraine. That's another immutable fact on the battlefield. Only unredeemable fools deride Russia as "slow" and "weak". The snail offensive will extend into 2026.”
Pepe Escobar (31 December 2025) [2]

| Darya Dugina | “Not so long ago, the FSB was directly engaged in smashing assassination attempts, organised by the SBU, against Russian journalists, as in the case of Olga Skabaeyeva and Vladimir Soloviev. It’s mind-boggling that Dugin and his family were not protected by the Russian intelligence/security apparatus.” | 23 August 2022 | |
