Have a problem with this comment
The Maidan Massacre in early 2014 triggered a bloody uprising that ousted president Viktor Yanukovych, spurred Crimeans to secede and join Russia, and sparked a civil war in Eastern Ukraine.

Like his JFK cleared up Dallas, Salvador accurately portrayed central America and Born on the 4th of July, well, I won’t even go there.

“Catchy sing-alongs and chants are employed. Well-known for exciting a crowd and creating a group identity, they depersonalize individuals and make them easier to manipulate.”

Who is they? Neoconservatives!

I haven't watched the movie yet but this article in the Manila Times points out what went on (and how the same groups were trying to push a narrative to get rid of the popular Duterte)

link

it points to the NED (National endowment for Democracy) as being a US front (maybe even a CIA front) that was funding anti Duterte articles in the Media. they then add:

While these moneys may seem small, an NGO activist in Europe pointed out this was the same pattern in Ukraine several years back. The NED initially extended modest funds to Ukrainian opposition groups, and increased them substantially as the political crisis in that country broke out that led to the overthrow in 2014 of pro-Russia Ukraine President Viktor Yanukovych, to be replaced by pro-US leaders.

NED president Carl Gershman, who has been openly rabidly anti-Russian would boast after Yanukovych’s fall: “Ukraine is the biggest prize“. (Another US outfit that has funded NGOs in Ukraine that helped topple Yanukovych is Omidyar Network, owned by tycoon Pierre Omdiyar. It is one of the two foreign financiers of another anti-Duterte media outfit, Rappler.)

Russia points fingers and cries “interference” whenever its very real imperialistic desires are blocked, even as it and its ruling hawks interfere- with a vengeance - in every corner of the globe, all over the world while claiming everyone does it but themselves. Like chiggers, ticks, and mosquitos, they exist for themselves alone, building nothing good, growing nothing of value, living by biting, irritating and sucking the life out of everything they touch, and carrying their demoralizing diseases to the unsuspecting.
