An AI-generated LEGO movie out of Iran depicting Trump as a war hungry pedophile has gone viral online. The video is the work of Iran-based propagandists called the “Explosive News Team” and is just the latest in a long line of AI-generated LEGO videos aimed at mocking Trump and Benjamin Netanyahu. LEGO-themed propaganda isn’t new and the Iranian video plays on familiar wartime propaganda themes. What’s different in 2026 is speed and scale.
“But if it doesn’t come from hollywood, it must be inferior”
“Noo that’s just an exception, it must always be bad, my cult leaders said so”
The means of video production is in the hands of the people now. And the people can make way better videos than “bootlick the yank troops every screen minute or you won’t get paid” hollywood.
