Tenpoundbass says
I almost wonder whether the “children’s hospital” is a tell of bs. Not just any hospital, a children’s hospital; not just any school, a preschool, and so on, to tug at heart strings. There seemed a lot of that early in the war, especially. And meanwhile, at least in this case, it was the “Ukrainian” (US) side doing the bombing, and of a completely unrelated building.
According to Patrick Lancaster he says he never runs into any Mainstream Media when he's on the ground in conflict areas. And he says often the BBC and AP takes his footage and distorts it. He reports on a Ministry of Science building being bombed out by American made bombs, with proof to back it up. The Mainstream media takes his footage and edits it without sound and says, Russia bombed out a children's hospital.

Warmongers have long used the supposed killing of children by their targeted 'enemy' for as long as there has been such a thing as war, and, it is a very effective propaganda technique. Back in WW I and prior to America's involvement 'over there,' artist renditions of the evil Hun soldiers with babies on their bayonets was common. It never happened, but it enraged the American public, which was being primed to accept getting involved in a war that had nothing to do with us. Similar propaganda was used to justify the first Gulf War because "babies were being removed from incubators and thrown on the floor" by Saddam's evil troops ... an event that never happened ... but was repeated over and over again by President George H. W. Bush along with the corporate media.
Not long after the conflict began in Ukraine, a broadcast news story showed a seemingly dead Ukraine boy in the arms of a weeping adult ... killed no doubt on the orders of the evil Putin. When I saw the broadcast, I was with a friend whose only grandson was about the same age as the victim. Suddenly, this man, who is ordinarily fairly stoic, became very emotional because he related the graphic tragedy to his own grandson. From that point on, he supported Ukraine and was convinced that Russia and that evil Putin needed to be destroyed, even if it led to Nuclear War!
What I find interesting is this; many of the same people that believe that the EXPERIMENTAL 'vaccines' were meant to kill us and that the media lied to us, believe the media's reporting of the Ukraine war. Strange to say the least.

Yes, I saw the same thing with family members over the “Syrian refugee crisis” of 2015. Remember baby Aylan, a toddler clad in red shoes, who had drowned crossing the Mediterranean? Our son was of similar age, and I remember thinking this is tragic but yikes, propaganda. The emotional impact hit others in the family much harder. The change from resistance to mass immigration to passive acceptance was remarkable (and the family in question hails from Europe and has much to lose). The demographic changes since then to the home country have been staggering, from crime to graffiti, to the loss of casual outdoor gatherings.
There’s a name for that latter phenomenon. What is it called, where you know your field has been misrepresented but believe reporting for other fields uncritically?

Finally remembered what this is called:
“Knoll’s law of media accuracy is the adage that ‘everything you read in the newspapers is absolutely true, except for the rare story of which you happen to have firsthand knowledge.’ For example, Knoll’s law suggests that someone might watch a news story about an event that they were personally involved with, and notice that the story is full of errors, but then forget that these types of errors exist when watching news stories about other events, with which they’re not as familiar.“

I just generally don't believe it if I or a trusted person didn't see it. For all we know there is no war in Ukraine. Has anyone you know been to Ukraine lately? Not talking 7 degrees of Kevin Bacon type information either. You know the person.
I don't know anyone. We're sending billions and yet I never see any reports from Kyiv from the 3 letter networks with a guy wearing a helmet and a vest reporting. Yes I know there's not active combat there, supposedly. For as many dead on either side are being claimed, it's probably the biggest war story since the Korean war or Vietnam. If 6 figure death toll reports are true, this is a major news story that should have reporters there.
I know American journalist are used to comfy cozy wars, but where are they? I've heard random reports that 100-200k are dead excluding civilian. In a little over a year. That's nuts. We killed a ton in the ME, but we technically lost little for 20 year wars.

You don't understand. You don't have to be part of an "in group" anymore to know what is going on. That's the purpose of the internet, to break up insular groups.
PeopleUnited says
If this was 1990, Snowden would have been Jonathan Pollard and he would have received ZERO support or coverage. His leaks would have gone nowhere. There would be no Julian Assange. If Assange wrote a book (somehow - how would he have received his information) he would have been assassinated like Gary Webb was for ONE revelation, not 100's.
99% of the country would be January 6th WAS an insurrection, not 1/2 of the country.
We wouldn't be talking. Maybe you're just too old to appreciate what we have. I'm talking to a people in Turkey, Brazil, and China right and we're comparing notes. I'm the elder of the group (of course) and I can explain what they don't know. They're in their 20's. We compare notes across national borders.
Kicked one asshole off the group from San Francisco because "he disagreed", but couldn't explain why, or about what - he just didn't believe certain FACTS. You can get rid of trouble makers in a day. There's STILL people that argue to "win the argument" not to be right. That was EVERYBODY in 1990 but today, there's huge groups of people who know they don't know what is going on, and WANT to know what is going on.
We've never been in a place like this before. One guy I'm talking to is a fanatical Muslim, he knows I'm an atheist, and we can still talk. I don't know what religion the guy from Brazil or China has, if any. I don't consider it particularly important.
You just can't appreciate where we are. Government propaganda is dismantled in days, if not hours and that's a good thing.
There were many authors producing books, pamphlets, running seminars, and even some politicians like Ron Paul throughout the 60’s even through today. The internet just made it easier to find them, but they have always been there. They predate the WWW. Truth didn’t magically appear out of nowhere

I was giving my propaganda brainwashed friend some background on Ukraine, and gave him a reference to The Duran for more balanced coverage from mainstream propaganda mills.
I have studied him closely, and I think he prefers the gruel of propaganda lies because it is easy to digest and keeps him in a calm state of denial. He doesn't want to undergo the grief therapy associated with recognizing the true, dismal state of things. He is a 'propaganda addict' having all of his thoughts, feelings, analysis and motives provided to him in a feedbag, and the withdrawal process is too painful.
He told me that I should just relax and accept the state of propaganda as less stressful mind dope. He knows something isn't right, but he wants to be cradled and suckled by the escapist propaganda rather than engaging the awakening requirements.

'Natch, it was the 1962 film. Since I had promised my son not to spout political commentary during the film, I didn't try to ascribe specific modern analogies to the characters. Now that richwicks mentions it - yeah it's fucked up how Angie nails the IHLlary.

The film has become so linked with the Kennedy assassination that a legend has grown up around it. Frank Sinatra, the film's star, purchased the rights and kept it out of release from 1964 until 1988, and the story goes that he was inspired by remorse after Kennedy's death. In fact, the director John Frankenheimer told me, Sinatra had a dispute with United Artists about the profits, and decided it would earn no money for the studio or anyone else. The DVD includes a conversation by Sinatra, Frankenheimer and writer George Axelrod, taped when the movie was finally re-released. Sinatra says it was the high point of his acting career; nobody mentions why it was unseen for 24 years.

Biden Says The US Is Low On Artillery Ammunition...
That is why he is sending cluster bombs to Ukraine until more munitions are produced!
Biden told CNN "This is a war relating to munitions. And they’re running out of that ammunition, and we’re low on it. And so... I took the recommendation of the Defense Department to allow... [the cluster bombs]"
A White House official said: "We are authorizing cluster munitions to ensure that Ukraine is not left defenseless while we wait for our own domestic production of ammunition to ramp up substantially..." https://nypost.com/2023/07/09/biden-lets-slip-during-interview-us-low-on-artillery-ammunition-rounds-as-it-tries-to-aid-ukraine/
Wow, we are waiting "for our own domestic production of ammunition to ramp up substantially!"
In other words the rape and plunder of the USA is so complete we don't have any artillery shells left to defend ourselves!

A White House official said: "We are authorizing cluster munitions to ensure that Ukraine is not left defenseless while we wait for our own domestic production of ammunition to ramp up substantially..." https://nypost.com/2023/07/09/biden-lets-slip-during-interview-us-low-on-artillery-ammunition-rounds-as-it-tries-to-aid-ukraine/
Wow, we are waiting "for our own domestic production of ammunition to ramp up substantially!"
Somebody needs to get on www.alibaba.com...
Seriously - some parts of our military equipment is made in China. That's how clueless and incompetent our government is.

In other words the rape and plunder of the USA is so complete we don't have any artillery shells left to defend ourselves!

Most citizens don't even CARE to know, so certainly they won't even try to do anything about it, they won't even discuss it.
But they'll scream like mad that we live in a free and fair dumbocrazy and boy will they attack you if YOU dare to talk about it.

When the military is controlled by the City of London, and the P3 Masons through the Vatican, the CFR, the Trilateral Commission, the foreign occupied foreign city state of Washington DC etc., its activities become entirely detached from the will of our citizens. We are just taxation gimps.

American's aren't even bothered enough to know who were are bombing or why so they can't even mount any sort of defense against it, they can't even complain about it.
That's a complete failure of civic responsibility.
I take some credit for educating people about the Ukraine war, the coup that I think is the most obvious coup in history, the division of the country because of the Holodomor and the reason Crimea isn't ever going to be allowed to be owned by Ukraine as it's a major Russian military base.
I give Ukraine a 0% chance of winning this war, without NATO coming in to fight directly, and I don't think Europe is interested in this war, although the United States is. Europe is going to be facing a choice of whether they want to do WWII, or just like Russia take over Eastern Ukraine, and leave Western Ukraine to rot in disarray.
I really don't think the US is even interested in Ukraine wining this war. Once it's finally over, Ukrainians are going to be desperate for peace, tired of war, and American oligarchs are going to go in and take over the resources of Western Ukraine, and none of it will benefit the Ukrainian people. The US is doing to Ukraine what they are trying to do with Southern Syria or what we did to Iraq.
NONE of this is good for the United States as a nation, but a few very wealthy powerful people will walk out ahead.

Youtube has pulled all of Macgregor's latest videos. Macgregor has been telling the truth about the failed Ukraine offensive, linking it to proof that Ukraine cannot defeat Russia. If the American people become educated to the fact that this is a failed cause, they will demand a stop to the money pouring into Ukraine. Obviously, Youtube is doing their part to keep people in the dark.

Sadly, Macgregor was naive enough to trust GooTube.
I hope he gets a clue and moves to Rumble or some other uncensored service now.

I wrote on his channel multiple times asking him to move to another site or have a backup.
I hate youtube anyhow. You can't find anything even if you know exactly what you're looking for, if it's anything related to a current event, propaganda tv news is shoved down your throat, 1/2 your comments never show up and are shadowbanned, and you can't have an authentic conversation there.
