In his commentary, “Crazy Stuff—Fabricated Details of Western Oil Sanctions Against Russia,” Sundance over on the The Last Refuge casts light onto the fabricated reality we are living in. The West and America are now as the Soviet Union had been—existing in a fabricated reality behind an iron curtain:
“ I’m very serious when I share with people that almost everything we understand about the geopolitical purposes and impacts of sanctions against Russian economic interests is entirely fabricated. However, because the scale of the propaganda against us is so effective, breaking the mental/cognitive barrier is almost impossible.” Sundance
The iron curtain symbolizes the capture of minds by dark powers who control and inform the mind of Big Brother, thus, the fabricated reality consists of circles within circles. At the heart of the circle is Big Brother, the spinner and weaver of the fabricated reality.

She should have included a link to Sundance’s piece: It’s a breach of Internet protocol not to.
No, she should not have included the link since a quote with reference to its author and his website is all that is required.
All that is “required” but poor form.
If you’re gonna build your post around someone else’s online work, you ought to support that work with a link.
If you had read the piece on The Last Refuge you would know better than to accuse Kimball.. What is apparent however, is a desire to trash the P&L blog.
Whatever you might come back with will receive no further response from me.
This freeper seems to specialize in pimping a blog that rips stuff off from The Conservative Treehouse. In this particular example, it is writing a story based on a Sundance piece without providing a link, but a quick history search shows even worse form with other threads started here.
For example, in https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/4206890/posts, the link is to this pimped blog, but the blog post is a straight copy and paste of this extended CT post: https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2023/12/29/crazy-stuff-details-of-results-from-western-oil-sanctions-against-russia/
The pimped blog mentions Sundance, but provides no link for a post that should never have been created at all, let alone put on FR with a link to the pimped blog instead of the CT page.
Here’s the link you declined to provide, for the work you copied for your own benefit.
(I miss humblegunner)
Thanks for the link. Informative comments at the link.

Into your life it will creep
It starts when you’re always afraid
Step out of line, the men come and take you away”

Link or no link (I read CTH every day anyway) it must be pointed out that Communism was the past master of fabricated reality. A practice which has far outlasted the Soviet Union, as the Muskovite propaganda on social media and even here on FR will bear witness.
Kill your television, cancel your Xitter and Faceplant accounts, swear off YouTube, and for God’s sake READ at least one dead tree book a month.* Better yet one a week. Get some CONTEXT to place the flood of propaganda into.
*And I don’t mean junk sci-fi or bodice-rippers.
Thanks for posting the link.
Good conversation in the responses to the article there also.
Unless people wake up soon, we (in the yellow zone) are so screwed - as BRICs nations eat our lunch regularly while western dictators trash their own people for sport.
All this article had to say:
The filthy corrupt Biden/Obama regime led by his GloboHomo puppet masters in the Deep State have created an Iron Curtain of news media that will destroy America.
No matter who is allowed to take power in 2025, the total collapse of the West is coming. Russia, China, Iran, North Korea can just sit back and enjoy the spectacle. And then the payback begins.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ THIS ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Something about the *content* of Patriot and Liberty Blog gets under 9YearLurker’s skin. But he/she lacks the courage — or perhaps the ability — to articulate it.
Well, I celebrate my 20th year at FR “next year” :-). I am a monthly contributor and I occasionally kick in extra. My voice counts too.
With its excellent articles and commentary on the intersection of what is politically right and what is right in the sight of GOD — affording GOD the rightful LEADING role in what is unfolding right now on the spiritual battlefield — Patriot and Liberty is a vanguard influence for good. I eagerly consume the articles in P&L, click through to the articles behind them, and share them face to face in personal relationships with flesh and blood (remember those?)
So keep up the good work, spirited irish! And thank you.
[Side note: you post in Bloggers and Personal. What could possibly be inappropriate about posting a blog in the FR category designed for such posts?]
Understand this, and everything makes sense.
Ignore the self-appointed “Blog Hater Karens”. They love to bitch and moan about these threads while ignoring the world burning down around their ankles.
FWIW...it took me all of 13 seconds to discover the article referred to in this thread...and then discovered the article just 3 threads down also posted by you. Keep up the good work!
Every single piece of Orwell’s 1984 has been appearing before us for many years now.
It’s damn near complete.
Yup—Orwell’s 1984 has turned into a government handbook.

Amen to those thoughts. I don’t regularly get around to reading Sundance’s articles, though I value very much his valuable mind and content. I would have missed this one by him without P&L’s posting. This is an important point since lest we not forget we are all on the same side, waging war against a ‘Fabricated Reality.’ As Rush would say, our minds reside in ‘Realville.’ I’m going to hang onto the term Fabricated Reality because it so aptly fits the state we are living in.
Europe is still buying Russian crude oil - now its just refined in India into downstream products, or is replaced with Saudi crude oil - at high margins for both of them.
Thank-you!
