When we wrote about the media effort in 2018 {Go Deep}, specifically the collusion between the intelligence and national security agencies of the United States government, I asked the question, “Do we really think such a catastrophic level of corrupted journalism could reconstitute into genuine reporting of fact-based information?” The answer then, as now, is the same, NO. Indeed, it has only gotten worse in the past four years.
For the past several days, I have been highlighting a simple question on social media about something missing in the Ukraine story.
Where are the social media posts, from Ukraine citizens, that would support the narrative, as it is being told by Western media, about events happening in Ukraine?
Seemingly, Ukraine is the only conflict in modern human history where a pop culture society of more than 40 million technologically connected people decided not to document every moment of it on social media.
Considering the scale and scope of the conflict, and considering the Ukraine population of more than 40 million is far larger than Canada, and considering that population is located in a country the size of Texas, and considering they are a western technologically connected society with tens of millions of cell phones, we should be seeing a great deal of footage, pictures and images from ordinary Ukrainian citizens. However, we don’t. Why?
I’m not talking about the professional war social media accounts, and/or military-centric accounts, which, to be fair do have lots of images and footage of Russian and Ukrainian conflicts. I’m talking about the ordinary man/woman in the major population centers, who under normal circumstances would be generating tens-of-thousands of social media posts to Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Telegram, YouTube, etc.

Maybe Facebook and Twitter can help with the censoring.
Hi.
I wonder how many Ukrainian banks have been looted?
5.56mm
Q: on the other hand...What’s your take on the analysis coming out of Russian State TV , wire services (Interfac/Novosti), Izvestiya and FSB? More credible?
Some basic questions here… Who is “Sundance” i.e. what is this person’s real name and what are their credentials, ie is there some background on who posted this such as a bio?
“I pray that Jim Robinson and others will clean up the insensitive apologists for the mass murderer Vladimir Putin on this website. A lot of people are dying right now because of tyranny.”
So, you don’t think Penis Piano Player has anything at all to do with the situation going on? Or that Biden, and most in DC, are not corrupt and have taken advantage of Ukraine and pushed Russia into this situation?
Why don’t you shove your cancel culture up your disgusting intolerant wazoo!
So, good ol’ Soros is 100% committed to getting the USA to defend Ukraine. Funny how pointing that out never gets the folks on the “Let’s Go To War!!!” bandwagon to stop and think - even for a second. Apparently they would rather call people who disagree with them “pro-Putin freaks”, and push America into another Democrat-sponsored war...
Seriously - does no one understand that the internet isn’t always available in all places under all conditions?
Probably all of 'em, by Russian troops, Ukrainian troops, Ukrainian politicians, Ukrainian cops, Ukrainian "businessmen", Ukrainian civilians, international volunteers, etc., etc...
I heard he did that. Unbelievable.
I also heard The Z man was a homo. Any truth to that?
It is not even cynical anymore to say that you can't believe a single word which the "authorities" offer.
“maybe there is uno citizen journalism, because they are fighting the Russians?”
That’s just silly, all 40 million of them?
People are addicted to posting.
Fascinating to see where the fault lines run at FR on this topic.
Rubbish, I was an ardent Cold Warrior and I’m enjoying Ivan getting kicked in the nuts but the US has no business in shedding a drop of American blood in the Ukraine cesspool of corruption.
With all due respect if you still believe anything out of the US government after Iraq WMD’s, 911, Boston Bombers, Libya-Benghazi, the 2016 election Russia coups, the deep state 2020 election coup and certainly after the covid lie festival you’ve been living under a rock.
They don’t believe them. They have a Neocon agenda so they use the propaganda tools at their disposal.
What is there to disbelieve about, Russia’s Army is a joke.
So, now our Putinista LiberalTarians not only are to the Left of Biden, but now they support China foreign policy...
LMAO.
Gonzalo Lira is in Ukraine and he certainly has documented what is going on there and what he’s saying much different than what our the intelligence community and media are saying, so much so the Daily Beast is set to do a hit piece on him.
He has a good point. I find it also interesting that the internet, heat all still works in Ukraine.
Is it necessary to always smear and badmouth people because you don’t like their topic?
Mark Levin is a FOX tool now and he was a very outspoken Trump hater in the past. One thing we can say about Levin is that he has never served in the military.
See how that works?
The Last Refuge is actually on our side and not a neocon rag.
