TDS. Taking things superficially in the middle of an information war is probably a good way to get nearly everything wrong. Making moves that are completely obvious and direct usually only is effective if your opponent is weak or powerless to stop it. It should be clear that the opponents in this are not weak and that moves against them are not superficially evident. You are going to have to bring your analysis of this game closer to where it is actually being played before you have anything useful to say about it.
