Bush-Era War Criminals Are Louder Than Ever Because They’ve Lost The Argument, Their claims that a massive increase in military interventionism would benefit the people of the world have been clearly and indisputably shown to have been false, so now they’re just men who helped murder millions.

Western Officials Admit Ukraine Is Crawling With CIA Personnel. The admission that NATO powers are so involved in operations against a nuclear superpower means we are closer to seeing a nuclear exchange than anyone should be comfortable with.

A hostile military alliance expanding to Russia’s borders isn’t a provocation, sending weapons to be used by CIA-trained fighters backed by US intelligence isn’t a proxy war, those Nazis aren’t Nazis, you’re being censored for your own good, trust the media, the government is your friend.

Don’t let anyone tell you your criticisms of US warmongering make no difference; if they didn’t, the empire wouldn’t work so hard to dissuade you from making them. They work so hard to manufacture public consent for their agendas because they absolutely require that consent.

It’s nuts that there are still grown adults who think Putin invaded Ukraine for no other reason than because he is evil and hates freedom. Focus less on the Azov Battalion and more on the fact that the US deliberately provoked this war with the goal of toppling Moscow.
My research has led me to conclude that there’s an elite conspiracy to enslave us all and turn us all into brainwashed automatons mindlessly enacting the wishes of our rulers in a cruel dystopia built by the powerful, for the powerful. Haha, just kidding. That already happened.
Notes From The Edge Of The Narrative Matrix: "The best western journalists are overwhelmingly despised while the worst are acclaimed millionaires. Western civilization is built on lies, dependent on lies, powered by lies. Don’t seek widespread approval. It’s worthless."

The Anti-China Brainwashing Is Working. If someone criticizing the most dangerous agendas of the most powerful and destructive government on earth looks like “Russian propaganda” or “Chinese propaganda” to you, it’s because you yourself have been brainwashed by propaganda.
Our Real Enemies Are Not In Beijing Or Moscow: Notes From The Edge Of The Narrative Matrix. My enemies are not in Moscow or Beijing. My enemies are in Washington, Arlington, Langley, Wall Street, Silicon Valley, and Hollywood. And so are yours. The only question is whether or not you realize it yet.
They Plan On Repeating “Putin’s Price Hike” Until People Believe It. President Biden used the phrase “Putin’s price hike” again in a reaction to Friday’s Consumer Price Index report revealing continued high inflation, showing once again that the US government believes Americans are idiots.
Let’s be clear: you’re not paying more for necessities to punish Putin and save Ukraine, you’re paying more for necessities to fund an economic war of unprecedented scale geared toward collapsing Russia to help secure US unipolar domination of this planet.

The latest New York Times report on the Nord Stream pipeline bombing is something else. According to NYT’s anonymous US government sources, the pipelines were blown up by a “pro-Ukrainian group” It’s actually insulting how stupid it is. But Sy Hersh's and Matt Taibbi's anonymous sources are bad.
I defy you to find me anything more American than Washington decoupling relief for its own citizens from its proxy war funding because it wants to make sure the proxy war funding actually passes. You couldn’t come up with a better summation of the US empire in a nutshell if you tried.
Speech Is Only Free If Dissenting Voices Get Heard. How many journalists are capable of doing what Julian Assange did to expose the criminality of the powerful? Not many. How many of those are now willing after seeing what’s being done to him? Even fewer. And that’s what his persecution is all about
The CIA Used To Infiltrate The Media. Now The CIA Is The Media. This isn’t Operation Mockingbird. It’s so much worse. Operation Mockingbird was the CIA doing something to the media. What we are seeing now is the CIA openly acting as the media.

The Assange Case Invalidates US Criticisms Of Russia: Notes From The Edge Of The Narrative Matrix. “Russia must be held accountable for its war crimes,” said the empire while imprisoning a journalist for trying to hold it accountable for war crimes.
Censorship By Algorithm Does Far More Damage Than Conventional Censorship. Arguably the most significant political moment in the United States was when Democrats concluded that Donald Trump’s election was a failure not of establishment politics but of establishment narrative control.
Consider the possibility that the Orwellian dystopia you fear is already here and has been in place for many years, you just haven’t noticed because you’re still allowed to watch Netflix or buy a gun or say whatever you want to say within a small impotent online echo chamber.
The Assange Case Explained Simply. The US government is trying to extradite a journalist and prosecute him under the Espionage Act for exposing its war crimes, with the long-term goal of normalizing this practice.
All Our Problems Are Built On Us-Vs-Them Propaganda. Keith Olbermann shared a video the other day where he ranted about people who don’t want to take the Covid vaccine with such emotional vitriol that spittle flew from his mouth and drool poured down his chin.

“Maybe my government is actually in the wrong here and is just lying and manipulating to advance its own interests?” should be a much more common thought. It’s a line of inquiry that should be taught to schoolchildren. It is by design that it doesn’t occur to people more often.
The western political/media class has been dismissing as “conspiracy theories” all claims that the US is likely responsible for last month’s sabotage of the Nord Stream gas pipelines, even while leveling the exact same accusations against Russia without ever using that term.

How Much Are We Prepared To Sacrifice To Help The US Win A Propaganda War Against Putin? One severely under-discussed aspect of the latest round of escalations in Silicon Valley censorship which began with the Ukraine war is the fact that it’s an entirely unprecedented order of censorship protocol.
This War Is A Propaganda Campaign Wrapped In A Psyop. The country with the worst elections in the western world, whose government intervenes in foreign elections more than any other government on earth, is waging a dangerous proxy war to save democracy in Ukraine, a nation which is not a democracy.

Don’t Underestimate How Badly The Powerful Need Control Of Online Speech. Controlling the thoughts we think about our nation and our world are of paramount importance to our rulers. There is nothing that these people would not do to maintain this control. Their very survival depends on it.
Those Who Support Internet Censorship Lack Psychological Maturity. I no longer had to share social media spaces with people I despised, and, if I were an immature person, I would see this as an inherently good thing.
Meta Censors Anti-Imperialist Speech In Obedience To The US Government. We don’t talk enough about how completely insane it is that a social media company with billions of users is censoring worldwide political speech about a major historical figure in alignment with US government decrees.
Refusing To Oppose US Tyranny Is Siding With It. The US and its allies are pushing the world toward nuclear armageddon. The US and its allies armed Al Qaeda in Syria. The US and its allies are deliberately starving children by the thousands. Shut up about Russia and China.

Western media are blaring headlines today about a rigged election, not in the United States or any of the other powerful nations allied with it whose elections are consistently fraudulent from top to bottom, but in the small Central American nation of Nicaragua.
I still can’t find words to describe how insane it is that all the “experts” who spent twenty years being wrong about Afghanistan remain esteemed and wealthy while those who spent that time being right about Afghanistan remain marginalized and regarded as fringe kooks.

Propaganda Restricts Speech More Than Censorship Does. The biggest impediment to free speech is people’s belief that they have it. Not censorship. It’s the fact that most people are propagandized into saying what the powerful want them to say, and don’t know it.
It’s Good To Be Mean To War Propagandists. Sydney Morning Herald editor Bevan Shields has published an article titled “We are not above criticism but these attacks go too far“, tearfully rending his garments over criticisms his paper’s three-part war-with-China propaganda series.
US Officials Really, REALLY Want You To Know The US Is The World’s “Leader”. White House National Security Council’s John Kirby made no fewer than seven assertions that the US is the “leader” of the world. This is from one single press conference.
The Guardian Could Help Assange By Retracting All The Lies It Published About Him. They signed a letter calling for the Biden administration to drop all charges against Julian Assange. This is after all the same Guardian which published the fake news that Manafort had met secretly with Assange.
The Trouble With ‘Western Values’ Is That Westerners Don’t Value Them. Have you ever noticed how those who shriek the loudest about tyranny in foreign countries are always the same people calling for the censorship and deplatforming of anyone who criticizes the western empire?
