The sad thing is all these whiplash fast reversals of propaganda still have no meaningful impact on the western propagandized mind. They don't notice despite being months apart, the contradictions never reach them. They just go from one thing to the next, from smirking to seething without beginning to question whether hmm maybe the media is lying to them. It's just incredible. Because it used to be a process that took years from falsehood to truth reveal. Incredible and incredibly saddening too.
The wine cave warriors want to enjoy slaughter and killing on their screens and have no reason not to believe the propaganda fed to them; many of them have stock in military-industrial corporations.
Who drinks wine in a cave?
Rich assholes in the Bay Area and all around Napa Valley, for starters.
Yeah that's the most depressing aspect of the whole thing.
I'm still moderately hopeful that when reality really hits it'll be soon enough that the bubble will pop for some people, at least momentarily. I think a decent comparison is the Afghanistan withdrawal and immediate collapse of the U.S. puppet government, but one big difference is Afghanistan had been on the media's back burner for years at that point.
Aren't they still pretending the Afghanistan withdrawal was organised (or the fault of Trump)? Plus I vaguely recall the libs coping for a while by wanking the ousted president's son (?) who was supposedly leading some militia?
