If hundreds of millions of Americans and Europeans knew what was actually going on, they’d certainly be against the policies their unelected bureaucratic oligarchies are imposing, both at home and abroad. Precisely this is why knowing the truth is all the more important. Unfortunately, it can indeed be dangerous to think and speak freely at this time, and we can only expect more censorship and more “thought criminals”, as any deviation from the official narrative is “dangerous for our democracy”.

    I didn’t need to put this into anything because the writing style tells me everything I need to know. Highly opinionated. Essays posing as news. Opinion underlaid with paper-thin “arguments”. It’s the same that was around during covid spreading misinformation about vaccines and masks. The disinformation itself is not the goal. The goal is to capitalize on people’s fear and isolate them. Make them easy to manipulate later on.

    It’s not a new strategy either. Fear and hate have always been tools in the hands of the powerful. If you think the West has a monopoly on that, you’re sorely mistaken.

    Fuck Westerm hegemony and capitalism, sure. But also fuck Putin. Fuck all oligarchs.

      Again you wrote a reply guy screed without engaging with a single word that was written. We are getting closer to making you read though, as you are now offended by “writing style”. Of course, all of your liberal opinions are fact, everyone else’s are Russian Evil Antivax Hate Propaganda. Do you have any more invective to heap on the piece without daring to attempt to refute a word?

        I can handle nonsense but please don’t call me a liberal.

        Can you point to the part you want me to engage with? Half your comments are you fantasizing about me so I’m not sure what you’re even trying to tell me.
