The Washington Post Can't Stop Babbling About Russians 'Hacking Our Minds'
"The dawn of political insight comes when you realize that propaganda is not just something that is done by other nations to other
The Washington Post has published another article warning its readers that the Russians are "hacking our minds", this one authored by CNN's Fareed
The article about "the Russian model" of propaganda where "people get convinced when they hear the same message many times from a variety of sources, no matter how biased."
Which is funny, since WaPo has been repeating this same ridiculous
Just two months ago the Washington Post editorial board published an article which opens with the line "Russia and other adversaries may not need to hack the election if they can hack something else: our minds."
Zakaria's piece builds on this already established theme by parroting the still completely evidence-free claim that Russia was responsible for the far-reaching cyber intrusion into the IT company

The problem is not just that Russia has hacked America\u2019s computer systems. It seems to have hacked our minds.

Why It's Good To Push Politicians To Do The Right Thing (Even When They Probably Won't)
"You don't push politicians to do the right thing because you think they will, you do it to show everyone else that they
The debate rages on over whether House progressives should force a floor vote on Medicare for All, with one side arguing that AOC and the rest of "The Squad" were elected to advance progressive policies and the other side arguing that AOC is cool so shut up and leave her alone.
As we discussed yesterday, Americans will not be given Medicare for All despite overwhelming public support because so much power depends on keeping them poor so they don't interfere in the affairs of a nation which serves as the hub of a global
The US political system does not exist to serve the interests of Americans, it exists to serve the interests of the empire. No part of that system is there to protect the people from the powerful; it's there to protect the powerful from the people.
And that's just not the case. There is no part of the US political system which is anything other than innately oppositional to economic justice.

Yet Another Major Escalation In Establishment Internet Censorship

YouTube's official statement on its decision to do this is very revealing, not so much for what it says as for what it does not
At no point does the video publishing platform attempt to argue that it is removing these videos because they jeopardize anyone's health or safety, as it did when it began deleting videos deemed to be spreading misinformation about Covid-19.

So We're Already At The 'Chinese Super Soldiers' Part Of The Propaganda Campaign
"Truth, as they say, is the first casualty in war. With its emphasis on global narrative control in lieu of conventional military tactics, this is doubly true of cold
"What we know is that the nation’s top intelligence official says that the US has evidence that China is conducting biological experiments on its soldiers to enhance their capabilities," said CIA asset and reporter Ken Dilanian on a recent MSNBC
"Picture super strong commandos who can operate on three hours' sleep, or a sniper who can see twice as far as a normal person."
~ CIA stooge Dilanian
Dilanian was referring to a claim made in a freakish screed of cold war smut recently published in the Wall Street Journal by US Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe titled "China Is National Security Threat No. 1".

The piece includes an illustration of a red serpent shaped like the Great Wall squeezing the world in its coils, much like the globe-strangling tentacled beasts traditionally used in propaganda to drum up fears of communists and Jews taking over the world.
