Pro-Iran group trolls Trump with AI Lego cartoons

A pro-Iranian media group, Explosive Media, is using AI-generated Lego-style cartoons to mock President Trump and US foreign policy. The group has released over a dozen videos since February, many gaining millions of views across platforms like TikTok and X. These sophisticated, scripted videos, produced by young Iranian creators knowledgeable about internet culture, distill complex geopolitical events into easily digestible content. The cartoons often feature Trump figures making decisions that align with Iranian perspectives, resonating with audiences disaffected by current events and effectively spreading Iranian propaganda.
