Just like WWI.
People Just Want to Feel Good About War Again
In the chain of tweets following, Greenwald also said:
It’s not a good feeling to dislike and distrust your own government and its key institutions. Wars that everyone can rally around provide a way to rejuvenate faith and trust in the US security state, the US role in the world, the morality of our political leaders and media class
Then concerning Russians being banned from running in the Noston Marathon, Greewald said:
Also, having a common enemy feels good. It gives purpose. It makes us feel that no matter what bad things our leaders have done, someone - another country - is vastly worse. Our hatred for them absolves us of our sins. And key: groups need outcasts
everyone MUST commit to protecting the NWO,
the imposition of mandates-for-genocide-by-FAKE”VAX”,
and to protect with everything we have
the Biden-Romney-Pelosi-Soros family Trafficking Tunnels.
Only two things are propping up Biden, the establishment, and globalists from falling down into the 20’s on approval %: the war in Ukraine and the MSM.
Any questions or concerns concerning how badly they are covering the war are met with countersattacks by trolls and people being called Putin supporters, etc - the Rachel Maddow attack line.
But the MSM cannot be trusted.
Zelenskyy cannot be trusted.
Putin cannot be trusted.
Soros, Klaus, Biden, Ukrainian media cannot be trusted.
Romney, Cheney, etc, cannot be trusted.
Those whom have had a good track record at exposing the MSM, like Epoch Times, Human Events, Posobiec, Bannon, Paul Joseph Watson, Tim Pool, Joe Rogan, Jordan Peterson, Breitbart, Gateway Pundit (one of the first to expose the government-Covid narrative) are far more trustworthy.

Unfortunately a number of freepers seem to have that mindset as well.
Some people lack critical thinking skills, don’t possess healthy suspicion concerning if they are being told the truth about the war and events within it, lash out with name calling if one questions the narratives being proffered, and are too eager to join the MSM bandwagon.
The problem is these people have been repeatedly lied to and know they have been lied to, but still want to believe. I am not saying the other side is honest either, but we know our side isn’t. There is nobody left to believe.
decent article,thanks
MSM still sux
Then at least some of these here that keep peddling MSM lies are covert Democrats and need to be called out for continually siding with the MSM.
I’m an outlier. I’m neutral on this war. I just don’t trust the news I’m hearing. And I understand at least SOMETHING about the two parties involved. There are no “clean hands” in these two governments.
Why, because some of them believe some of what they see in the MSM?
You’re taking a lot of liberty with the word ‘continually’. There are plenty of people here who think Putin’s invasion is wrong, and are probably healthily suspicious of the MSM.
They just don’t happen to agree with you on THIS issue, so you have to find some way to denigrate them.
behave like total asses and then scream hysterically when called about their behavior
Amazing how the debate tactics of the Alex Jones Alt Right and the Woke Left are exactly the same
Another odd thing.
The Alt Right in PR botting for Putin is using the exact same “logic” the Soros DA’s use.
“Oh it not Putin’s fault he a is crinminal thug trying to turn the clock back to 1938. Society (i.e. the civilied world) made him a thug and a crimina by their actions
There is fact, and here is Putin's pr machine. What the Alex Jones Alt Right is doing is knowingly lying about Ukraine because it validates their panic stricken knee jerk need to rationalize their "Appeasement Now" dogmas.
Appeasement has never worked. It will work no better with Putin then it did with Hitler and Stalin
Both sides are not equal here. When you choose to repeat lies, you going to be called on it.
Rather then cry about it, try making a minimum of effort to verify your data instead of mindlessly spewing every lie that is told you by the Russian Goverment because it validates your emotion based “appeasement now” dogmas
Wrong. They aren’t simultaneously anti-Zelensky amd anti-Putin, the proper route, because Putin is a thug and Zelensky is in bed with Soros and the WEF.
And I’m not denigrating them, so you are mischaracterizing me as liberals do to create Straw Man arguments, but rather I’m taking them to task for siding with Zelensky when he is in bed with the aforementioned.
So do you support Putin? Hope not. Do you support Zelensky/Soros/WEF? Hope not.
Nice Straw Man arguments. Control your temper tantrums.
Th Alt Right was pro Trump before most and takes the most pot shots from the MSM, which tells you all you need to know. And the liberal MSM was the first to attack Aled Jones, though I dont watch him, and tries to smear everyone by linking as many aa they can with him, so you are a liberal thwn..
And Soros is on bed with Zelensky.
Just say it, you support Zelensky who is in bed with Soros and the WEF, instead of being anti-Putin and anti-Zelensky.
Don’t you have sone Bush/Romney/McCain/Biden war to go and cheerlead?
Now you are using Rachel Maddow style attack lines and creating more Straw Man arguments.
The alr right doesn’t support Putin or Zelensky, but you clearly aren’t anti-Putin and anti-Zelensky, which is a good route to take, even though Zelensky is in bed with Soros and the WEF.
You support globalists. Got it.
Amd you continually bringing up the alt right and smearing them is a dead give away you’re a liberal, the MSM smears the alt right all the time, and your angry outbursrs are outing you on this.
