Propaganda is defined as “material meant to promote or publicize a particular political cause or point of view.” Here is a reminder that the best propaganda is that which is true. If it makes you sob uncontrollably it is even more effective. The above short film, shown to the U.S. Congress, shows a modern European nation with smiling white people being murdered and destroyed. I cannot watch it without tears coming to my eyes. This is one of the most devastating and effective propaganda short films I have ever seen, and even more devastating for being true.
Meanwhile Russian propaganda mutters nonsense about “removing the Nazi regime in Ukraine” (a regime headed by a Jewish guy and with Jews over-represented in both its government and as lead figures in its business community, only Russia could with a straight face call Jews Nazis), and more nonsense about weaponized birds carrying bio-weapons (uhm, that is *not* how birds work). That stuff might work inside Russia where any dissenting voices are given polonium smoothies and the Russian people are propagandized 24/7, but anybody outside Russia just laughs at that nonsense. Jewish Nazis? Weaponized birds? Really?!
But nobody can laugh at that short film above. There are no laughs in murder and destruction. None.

That Q nonsense is equally lies, recycled Russian racism and agitprop, yet believed by millions, they claim. Air borne lead inhaled at a formative age? Demon Murdoch?
Sorry I can’t watch deeply affecting videos lately, 7/15 Artillery, 4th ID, Song Mao. Artillery Conquers, Infantry Occupies. My ears will always buzz at two freqs. Reason I play bass.

You are probably better off not watching it. It is almost unbearably sad.

In Russia, many have had little choice in their news for decades, in the US we have the choice to click away from Fox or OAN.

Now that Putin is claiming that Australia and the US are in leagues with Ukraine to develop and deploy bio-weapons, I fear that war with Russia is inevitable.
