#ShowerThoughts The US government engaged in PR offensives against its own citizens to convince them to support US entry into WW1+2. What if the US has been running a similar project to put their own culture onto a war footing, for a decade or so? Are we seeing the antipathy on all sides of the culture war redirected against Russia, and maybe China? Have we been primed to support fighting a hated Other by any means necessary?

@strypeyAgree with this but what do you mean by 'PR offensive'?

@strypey Pretty much everyone hates the Russian government right now and for a good reason.

@strypey I think this is so obviously yes that I don't see how an educated person could deny it.

@Moon @strypey "Educated" just means "susceptible to propaganda".It's been that way for decades.

@strypey The root cause of your consternation is commencing your train of thought based on the assumption that the US Government are "the good guys." If you start the links of your chain of thoughts without that base assumption, the truth will be more obvious.

@strypeyNo time for the Serfs to evaluate their own lot in life if there's an enemy to focus on:(
