As the US's proxy war against #Russia continues, it has to be recalled that the 2016 Russiagate propaganda campaign played a significant role in turning the American public's opinion against Russia.

By framing Russia as "a threat to democracy" the US lawmakers and officials played on the public's patriotic emotions and convinced them that they can either be patriotic or support Russia. Russia was no longer called a matter of foreign policy, but something far bigger - a domestic threat to the American public.

Russia was no longer a threat to American superpower status but the general public of the US. This kind of narrative was pushed into the public discourse. And today, we find ourselves at a position where the US empire is ramping up the games of nuclear chicken with the biggest nuclear power in the world and everybody, instead of opposing, is supporting this.

Because of propaganda that continued for years, the public is manipulated into supporting anything as long as it is framed as "tackling Russia."

I also have a newsletter called THE GREAT AWAKENING - which talks about the various we are propagandized by the powerful to keep turning the gears of the status quo, which is bringing us closer to total disaster either through climate change or nuclear war. It also talks about how EGO is the root cause of everything that's root in our world today.
