"A Soviet and an American are on an airplane seated next to each other. “Why are you flying to the US?” asks the American. “To study American propaganda,” replies the Soviet. “What American propaganda?” asks the American. "Exactly" the Soviet replies."

Everyone's anti-war until the war propaganda starts. Every normal person will tell you they want peace and abhor mass-scale violence. Then the mass media start doing what they always do and churning out stories about atrocities in an empire-targeted nation, and all of a sudden…

This is as close to a smoking gun as I've ever seen on Ukraine. Amanda Sloat was Senior Director for Europe at the National Security Council under Biden, meaning she was the one directly running Ukraine policy from the White House. And she now admits that, had Ukraine told…

Absolut MUST Watch! Joe Biden's top official for Europe Amanda Sloat casually admitting explosive facts that the Blob not only suppressed for years, but you would have been accused of being a Putin apologist if you ever raised. Remember the energy expended to silence and…

In a normal world, this should be an immense scandal in Europe. Le Monde has a long article (lemonde.fr/international/…) describing the hellish life of Nicolas Guillou, a French judge at the ICC in The Hague, due to U.S. sanctions punishing him for authorizing arrest warrants…

A 25-yr old sets himself on fire in protest of the massacres in Gaza and to support Palestinians at a time of genocide and the Press presents it as a mere suicide, forgetting to mention Gaza, Palestinians, Israel. Goebbels would be proud of the Western Press and Orwell horrified

Why did he do it? Four major news outlets have almost the exact same headline for the self-immolation of 25-year old Aaron Bushnell. Not one of them mentions the words “Gaza” or “genocide,” the reason for Aaron’s protest, or the word “Palestine,” his last words spoken.

A prerequisite for wanting to see minority groups thrive and standing up for the oppressed is...that we care about others. Being empathic, apt to see things from others’ point of view and experience concern, reduces development of prejudice in kids. #BLM #BlackLivesMatter
