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.
The neocons, war promoting agents working on behalf of the UniParty and the collective globalist interests, are all united in their effort.
Unfortunately, almost everything being transmitted from corporate news into our psyche is part of a battle for your mind. The goal is to create a self-fulfilling prophecy.
This is why people who are familiar with these types of tactics often tap-out when the drumbeats get loudest.
The White House, which means the total globalist effort, tipped their hand earlier last week when they defined “strategic power” and their outlook toward winning the battle for the mind. Everything is about writing a script, creating a narrative, building a “better story,” where the globalists are the heroes. In essence, the “strategic power” battle is for your mind…
…”Ultimately, the goal of our sanctions is to make this a strategic failure for Russia; and let’s define a little bit of what that means. Strategic success in the 21st century is not about a physical land grab of territory; that’s what Putin has done.
In this century, strategic power is increasingly measured and exercised by economic strength, by technological sophistication and your story – who you are, what your values are; can you attract ideas and talent and goodwill? And on each of those measures, this will be a failure for Russia.”
Everything in modern warfare is storytelling.
Question all of it.
The stories of the 13 guards on an island telling the Russian naval ship to fuck off… yeah, it was a lie (turns out they surrendered). The “Ghost of Kyiv” pilot, the lady with the sunflower seeds etc., now all recognized as lies and propaganda. And do not expect it to stop, because it won’t. Thus, the nature of warfare for your mind.
Yeah. This is the central message. I believe nothing. I’m not choosing sides.
Hey, how’s our southern border?
Question EVERYTHING on EVERY topic put out by the msm…pure propaganda…
Screw this article.
Death to Putin.
Long live Ukraine.
Has biden said anything more regarding nuking Americans ?
The MSM propaganda concerning Ukraine is staggering.
A. The viral clip of Ukrainian men saying goodbye...Real? No, its from The War of Chimeras (2017).
The pic of an old woman with a bloody face and bandaged head? It’s from 2018.
The viral pic of a girl in a pink jacket standing next to a boy saluting men on a Ukrainian tank is from 2/25/22? No, it’s fake and It was a picture from 3/23/16.
Numerous pics of the Ukrainian president Zelenskyy in body armor on 2/24/22? They’re from him inspecting the border on 4/9/21.
Snake Island almost certainly surrendered. The “tank” that ran over the old man’s car was Ukrainian. The “Russian weapons convoy” that was supposedly wiped out is probably also fake.
I’m tired of unending military interventionism and the chickenhawk trolls who want to use Putin or Russia as a foil to try and egg Americans into yet another war the chickenhawks won’t fight in themselves.
B.) The First Casualty of War Is the Truth – The Current Western Propaganda for Ukraine Is Epic in Scale

‘Ghost Of Kyiv’ Fighter Pilot Blowing Up Russian Aircraft In Trending Clip Actually From Video Game
“A clip of a Ukrainian fighter jet blowing up a suspected Russian aircraft started trending on social media yesterday. Many believed it was proof of the exploits of a mysterious and unverified ace pilot called the “Ghost of Kyiv.” It was actually fake footage from the 2013 PC game, Digital Combat Simulator: World. ...”

Of course, question all of it.
But also this: If the purpose of NATO is to keep Russia within its borders, then what are they prepared to do?
And if they are not prepared to keep them within their borders, then what is the point? Is Germany (for example) really going to let Ukraine fall, but spill German blood to defend Estonia?
So much propaganda.
Right off the bat.
I don’t like bs.
It discredits the source.
People get very emotional and are highly manipulatable.
Concern is how the illegitimate cartel that stole the election will use this on us.
Does this mean I can’t even trust Adam Kinzinger’s Twitter feed? Is nothing sacred?
Zelenskyy made a strong impression in the widely disseminated Trump phone call transcript as a young man trying to make his country a better place.
I’m right there with you.
I refuse to be a lemming and have my opinions manipulated by Propaganda.
Go look at DUmmies. Every poster has Ukraine flag on their posts.
The bull sh*t is raining down on this whole Ukraine thing. But some of it is quite humorous. Like the “Ghost of Kyiv” pilot...People immediately jumped all over it...Getting the hood slammed down on their heads...Information chaos!
This is how I feel too. I am getting the same feeling about this as early in the COVID BS. There is a PsyOps feel about this whole thing. You are supposed to adopt a certain viewpoint and accept a narrative based simply on what they tell you.
Basically I have gotten to the point with international stories that if the media promotes one side heavily, I take the other side. I am not aligned with the corporate state.
This is all being set up to make the corporate state and the left seem like the only moral choice for the world. Putin is being lumped in with Trump, the Ottawa truckers, the Jan. 6 protesters etc. in this moral narrative by global corporatists.
It will not be long until this is all tied to whiteness and Christianity as the core problem facing this world. The bottom line is that this is all part of the great reset and a further power grab by the left.
Unfortunately, I feel many on the right are falling for it, like in the early days of COVID.
LOL, First hint of a BS article, it doesn't have the authors real name.
As Fox Mulder would say, “Trust no one.” There is so much ‘bravo sierra’ being spread, on all sides, EVERYTHING must be taken with a POUND of salt.
FWIW, normally I would be 100% behind Ukraine. The problem is, that True-dolt supports Ukraine.
Given that his decision making over his years a Prime Mistake of PRC (Politically Repressive Canada), and I don’t JUST mean his recent attempt at dictatorship, he approaches 100% WRONG, in almost EVERY decision!
“Question all of it”
Are we also allowed to question Sundance?
Sundance told us the idea that Putin would invade Ukraine was all a big hoax.
Amen to that. F**k Putin.
Have you checked DU? They sound more like you actually. It’s all “Go Ukraine! Screw Putin and Trump!”
Is Sundance under the age of 8? Propaganda has been part of war for all of recorded history.
