here are some bits of reality about 'our free press' and their 'coverage' of the ukraine game;
If you get all of your information from establishment media sources, chances are you have a Ukraine flag in your social media bio. You also likely accuse anyone who questions the billions of taxpayer dollars flowing to Ukraine — of being a "Russian agent." You likely think that this war in Ukraine was unprovoked, Vladimir Putin is hellbent on world domination, and if we don't spend our last dime and resource fighting him, the entire world will fall to Russia.
If you solely digest corporate media, you likely think that the Azov battalion, which has received billions in US taxpayer-funded weapons, is a group of freedom-fighting heroes, who respect diversity, equality, and liberty for all. You will likely challenge anyone who points out their literal ties to Nazis and quickly write them off as "Russian agents."
If you only watch FOXSNBCNN or only read WAPOTIMES, you likely think these things because it is the job of these outlets to make you think these things. For those of us who choose to live in reality, however, this war and the history around why it started is far more complicated than "Russia bad, Ukraine good."
Unfortunately, many people are not based in reality and easily succumb to the perverse propaganda which flows from these outlets 24 hours a day. Unfortunately, this apparatus of mind control has convinced many Americans that neo-Nazis are good, stoking a potentially catastrophic nuclear war with Russia is necessary, and the billions we are sending to that region to fund these things, have no effect on our economy..........more.......
