Am I pro-Putin? Am I pro - Zelenskyy? I am both. Ukraine can have the world if it only can resist NATO's dreams of imperialism, that is my view. The P...

Since we are stating our opinions here, I will state my view that the Russian SMO may have been unjustifiable and warranted. Criminality does not ente...

All part of the feedback loop - Plan - Do - Check - Act to see if the manipulation is working and the propaganda is working.

Huh?

So what's the solution, revolution? In this case I believe the solution is evolution, not revolution, and not the ex-nihilo creation of some perfect p...

Many people have come to the same conclusions that Chomsky did, independently. If anything, Chomsky is too harsh.

What I do not understand is why at least agree to a deal that can be simply rescinded at a later date, like the Minsk agreements: Ukraines "Allies" do...

Speaking from experience, I did live in a country that was virtually a dictatorship. One ruling party and one member of the opposition. Actually two p...

Looks like you have been a victim of President Putins' Propaganda Program.

How about Americanism. Is it better? We are told it is better like someone walking up to us and slapping us in the face. Please tell me you are all no...

There was a revolution there once, I heard it did not turn out too well. And after the horrific "Arab Fall" yes I call it that, and the other military...

Vice President Kamala Harris - FSB? I must say I never suspected. They are good.

It's harsh, and in my opinion, very patronizing. If it is published somewhere it would make a good propaganda piece. I don't remember any letters to A...

This looks like a plan, but it is very risk, and very aggressive. Risky for Russia and for the world. Nice cartoons. At least they are discussing the ...

I was hoping no-one would bring that up, but since you did: I suggest that the whole thing was staged to send the message that an unprovoked aggressio...

In any case I am a little tired of hearing of President Zelenskyy's 'scoldings'. No offence, but really it looks like theatre.

Ah such easy questions to answer. Let me offer proof. Go to any news site now, and look at their headlines and stories. They are all different. That i...

The entire subject of propaganda is a fascinating one, and becomes only more interesting as I dig deeper. Propaganda is a dismissive term, its frequen...

That is exploring the lower bounds of propaganda. For me, it is too much to use schoolchildren as pawns in an information war.

This was more than 50 years ago, and the warning about the Military Industrial Complex takes in a little more context when your read these quotes: Rea...

Russia exported Mig29s and such, but these were 'export versions' I think. I don't think they have a lot of allies to supply, and not a lot of bases, ...

I support both sides. I accept the judgement that fate will give.

I welcome your outrage, but also be outraged at every innocent death caused in the name of wealth and national pride. Also spare some outrage at those...
