Is This Russian Propaganda? Notes From The Edge Of The Narrative Matrix
Listen to a reading of this article:
❖
We’re risking a very fast, very radioactive World War 3 to defend the “democracy” of a nation whose government bans opposition parties, imprisons political opponents, shuts down opposition media, and takes all its orders from Washington due to a US-backed coup in 2014.
“Defending Ukrainian democracy” makes as much sense as “Defending Mongolian seaports”.
❖
The powers responsible for destroying Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria and Yemen are the same powers we’re trusting to carefully navigate extremely delicate nuclear brinkmanship escalations without ending the world.
“Relax, nobody’s gonna start a nuclear war” is a belief that is premised upon the assumption that the empire which laid waste those nations, while destroying our environment and making everyone crazy and miserable, is competent enough to walk that precarious and unpredictable tightrope.
❖
I keep getting comments like “You’re saying we just can’t strike Russia AT ALL, just because they have nukes??”
Yes. Fucking duh. What are you an idiot? What the fuck is wrong with people? Did everyone forget what nuclear weapons are? Did schools stop teaching this or something?
❖
❖
You can’t fix a problem you don’t understand. And right now with Ukraine the entire western political/media class is pouring a tremendous amount of energy into keeping people from understanding the problem.
❖
If they were telling us the truth about Russia they wouldn’t be censoring Russian media.
❖
Kinda odd how defending freedom and democracy requires such copious amounts of censorship.
❖
Don’t worry, I’m sure all those socialist and antiwar Americans that were platformed by RT America can just get jobs criticizing the murderousness and corruption of their government in the free press of the western mainstream media.
❖
I wonder if we should be concerned that the entire western world is propagandizing and censoring like it’s on war footing?
