The First Casualty of War Is the Truth – The Current Western Propaganda for Ukraine Is Epic in Scale
The Conservative Treehouse - The Last Refuge ^ | February 26, 2022 | Sundance

Posted on 02/26/2022 4:25:01 PM PST by E. Pluribus Unum

When we shared yesterday that all interested observers should be very wary of the information from media sources around Ukraine, there was a reason for that.  Question everything. Take nothing at face value.

If you have never experienced the propaganda push surrounding war, the totality of the inbound bullsh*t can be destabilizing, overwhelming and unnerving.  It’s one of the reasons why CTH doesn’t share immediate information.  Everyone has an agenda.

Everything we are seeing in U.S. media surrounding U.S. interests in Ukraine is a massive propaganda operation with the headquarters in the U.S. State Department and U.S. intelligence community.  The sense of sympathy you are feeling is part of an intentionally manipulative operation from within this DC matrix.

The images, pictures, videos, speeches, soundbites and the cinematography broadcast by U.S. corporate media are all purposefully intended to create a very specific outlook within the American people toward the issues in Ukraine.  The leftist United Nations, and the leftist U.S State Dept, will work together on this just like they have done in the prior examples (Ukraine 1.0, Libya, Egypt, etc.).

It is very easy to become a victim of psychological warfare intended to manipulate our opinions.

I’m not fooled. Zellensky is Bagdad Bob and the MSM is Al Jezzerra.

So we’ve fallen so far from Ronald Regan that we are now willing to accept communist expansion by the KGB leader of Tissia???

Why should we be afraid of 1 communist 10,000 mile away, when we’ve got 10,000 communists 1 mile away?

It’s silly to defend Russia.

People dissent in Ukraine. They elect various leaders— all flawed.

Russia keeps electing the same leader: Putin.

It’s not complicated. Putin is a loser. He just messed up big time invading Ukraine. The nation does not want to return to soviet rule. Putin is devolving to his old kgb fantasies.

NATO hasn’t stolen one acre of land. Russia invades many nations including Georgia and Ukraine. Of course nations want to join NATO he wants to bring back the Soviet Union.

The east Europeans don’t want that.

I think you will see coup flu in Moscow soon.

Putin is going to fall unexpectedly ill— and it won’t be Covid.

He's got a whole lot of assumptions about the supply situation of the Russians.

Much of what he is talking about is obscured by the fog of war.

Historically, the average green Russian soldier isn't the sharpest bulb in the drawer. I'm wondering what the current Russian army did to replace the Soviet political officers, myself.

It’s not just Ukraine and this war. It’s safest to assume that NOTHING you hear on broadcast news or read on major internet sites is truthful. Everything is put there with an agenda behind it. Some of it may be the truth, but if so it’s only because that particular truth supports the narrative being pushed. If I happen to be in hearing of a TV newscast I immediately think “OK, let’s spot the narrative”.

Remember how with Klintoon 25 years ago we were supposed to fully support Bosnians? That they were so oppressed and terrorized?

Because they were Moslems. And this was before 9/11.

Have you volunteered or bought a ticket to Ukraine to go fight?

I can hold two or more thoughts at the same time

You say I’m stuck in another era. I say I’m a realist. Believe them when they have told you what they want to do and start doing it

I don’t want my children or grandchildren to live under the enslavement of that godless government

Oh so clever. I did not say not to be concerned about the communists within our government. To the contrary we should be actively promoting ideas and candidates that support freedom

The fact that they gave out AKs to civilians is disturbing. If captured without a uniform, they will be shot. Having a gun will be a death sentence. Guns are worthless if you do not know how to use them? This is an act of desperation. We are not being told everything. This could go sideways fast. Something happens, lots of civilians die, there will be a clammer to Help the brave Ukrainians by sending in troops and shooting down Russian Jets in a “No Fly Zone”— Now they are trying to paint Putin as a new Hitler? (Why not Stalin?)

“What supposed “conservatives” are doing is akin to siding with Hitler at Munich in 1938. Like those who fell for Hitler’s bs in the 1930, Putin has spent years manipulating “US Christian Conservatives” to think he is a “good guy” He isn’t.”

It’s a sad state here on FR. But, I think it is few conservatives, but a loud group of RonPaulistas . Liberaltarian nut jobs who are far weaker than the clown in the WH. It takes effort to be weaker than Joe Biden.

Perhaps the treaty terms might also require that the American Democrat Party be banished from United States politics?

You have such a way with the words. It’s really a shame you never learned to think before your vomiting. Just try grunting, it really reflects more your intellectual level. Uga buga, you illiterate simp.

If there’s a reporting source on this cluster that we can trust, I have yet to see it.
