Listen to a reading of this article: ❖ The country with the worst elections in the western world, whose government intervenes in foreign elections more than any other government on earth, is waging a dangerous proxy war to save democracy in Ukraine, a nation which
It is important tp point out, as Caitlin has, that those who say "capitalism isn't working and must be reformed" have it ass backwards, or ass in every direction but the right one. this is quintessential capitalism. And while it isn't necessary, and in fact, counterproductive to believe everything anyone says, it seems clear that Russia is way ahead on the truth quotient, as well as the closely associated ethics scale.
Putin made clear what he was proposing to do: cleanse out the nazi factor, a factor much bragged about by Ukrainian nazis themselves, who were slighted at not having their unrelenting brutality recognized as the essential element in the 2014 coup: and in the process have Ukraine emerge as a neutral state like Switzerland, and free of all US, British and EU finagling and manipulation.
This could have been done the easier way, but the West, in its own perceived interests insisted on the hard way. Zelensky insists the troops trapped in Mariupol fight unto death, and this will likely be the case, although amnesty was promised by Russia to all non-Nazis. That Zelensky's orders sound very Hitlerian will not be acknowledged by the West : its agenda is to smear Putin as a war criminal. I doubt this impresses anyone with any moderate historical knowledge of US political interference in and attack on non-submissive sovereign states, and the facts of Russia's initiative here.
Zelensky is an actor, the world is his stage. The Military Industrial Complex's "arsenal of democracy" has "liberated" millions around the world from living peacefully. As HRC once said: "We came, we saw, he died." How To Wage War: https://yuribezmenov.substack.com/p/how-to-wage-war?s=w
“of course the propaganda cuts both ways. Obviously it does. Uncritically believing Russia-aligned sources about this war is just as sure to give you an inaccurate picture of events as uncritically believing US/NATO/Ukraine-aligned sources (i.e. all mass media). It's psyops all the way down.” BRAVO!!
Yes propaganda cuts both ways however in this instance (watching both play out):
(a) there is very little Russian propaganda because it has no platform, we de-platformed every dissenting opinion from the Western panopticon. all that is left is the cringe-worthy emotive (and often staged) scenes we are fed. When these scenes are proven to be out of context, lies, staged, etc,.. the media moves on to the next psy-op and does not retract the story - its job is done.
(b) what little you can glean from Russia appears to be far closer to the truth that plays out over the longer term - none of it is vaguely entertained in our media and its absence speaks volumes (e.g. the West breaking OSCE agreements on military proliferation by NATO expansion, the run up to the invasion: increased shelling of the Donbass, Ukraine forces increasing around Crimea, NATO and nuke provocations from Zelensky, etc.) All the spin is pro-Ukraine and never that the Russians may well have been acting in self defence and aligned to UN charter (legally) on defensive action and protecting neighbour countries.
Add to that the history of lies by the West around Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, and their standard playbook on proxy warfare: arm the rebels, buy or threaten the opposition, funding, arms deals,.. they do all this in broad daylight (they just did it to Imran Khan) and we are expected to not even blink any more?
I think you just need basic awareness and common sense to work it all out. At the end of the day if enough people in Europe realise they are shooting themselves in the foot just to cosy up to the US (which will end up in mass inflation, hunger, cold showers and a colder winter to say the least) then the narrative will do a u-turn. It will be interesting to see how it does, if enough people wake up, and how the West will try to save face. Zelensky may well become another "hero" fall-guy.
the question that i keep coming back to is how is this going to end? i dont mean the proxy war, i mean the whole psyops, how do we take back control? it wont be by election.
It's absolutely insane. Try to find real footage of the "war" and all that comes up on youtube is Pro-Ukraine videos about how easily they are destroying Russians and how dumb and weak the Russians are. There are many videos that make the footage seem like call of duty.
1. Is the propaganda simply to extract $$$ by building it up. The "content creators" get a cut from the deep state, the deep state gets their $$$ from tax payers and weapons sells, etc. Is it that simple? YT gets paid to push the deep state propaganda?
2. Something else entirely is going on. Sure a lot of what is going on in 1 but is this a cover up? Wars generally are coverups for failures of governments who use them as a distraction and a way to steal $$$ from society. But is there more?
The fraud market is even more insane than the war. It was going on well before war(remember GME?). It has the same footprint as 2000/Enron/dotcom, 2008/Lehman/VW squeeze, and now 2020/Covid/Ukraine War.
One obvious proof that the entire Western "Corporate-bin-Laden" media is propagating and/or cheerleading the US/NATO proxy war is the fact tbat, among the thousands of fotos and narratives depicting the horrific civilian casualties, I have yet to see a SINGLE picture or story showing a wounded or dead Ukrainian soldier! Wow, what a miracle, ZERO Uke troop killed despite Russia firing hundreds of missiles and tens of thousands of artillery shots! Is that a video game I'm watching, or what???

There are no "separate countries" in a one world government.

Curious that Caitlin, Glenn Greenwald, MaxBlumenthal, AaronMate, Chris Hedges et al. have not (yet) been thrown out of Twitter. Unlike Scott Ritter.

Got bored switching between Breaking Bad marathon & Enemy At The Gate; so got online to watch the exciting conclusion to Azovstal... The END?

Don't forget Epstein is somewhere in the mix.

Is US Security apparatus working, together with Daily Beast, WaPost, NYT, on locating journalist Gonzalo Lira in Kharkov?
Have they contributed to his “disappearance” by Ukrainian Nazi government secret service?
Mr. Lira just published a list of other “disappeared” prominent Ukrainians…
Cui Bono. When examined in detail explains everything.
