As the cliched saying goes, trust is hard to earn but easily lost, and it’s even harder to regain after a viral QAnon-like conspiracy theory just discredited the Golden Billion's perception managers in the New Cold War.
The Global South is unlikely to fall for such fake news
But we must not underestimate the capacity and determination of the Neo-Nazi thugs in the US-led West and their continuing 'crusade' to destroy Russia. That is why Russia must now escalate... Mass bombings in the Ukrainian Nazi armies especially near the Novorossiya borders is a must.....they must be made to pay a heavy price for their terror and infowar actions. More such attacks in Russia could well lead to plots in Moscow, if they go unpunished...
Mass bombings maximise death of innocent civilians on both sides. I respect Russia’s focus on military targets - civilians inevitably do get caught up but this is minimised.
Putin sets a new example thru the SMO in this respect. Wish the public would recognise and acknowledge and demand SMOs over shock and awe war strategy of US/NATO.
If diplomacy fails, war as a last resort needs to be difficult, not easy.
Andrew, I’m curious about the use of QAnon as a comparison device in your article. Are you saying there is a similar conspiracy happening in Ukraine (or among Ukrainian social media supporters) who profess to be in contact with a ‘deep state’ source providing ‘deep state’ info about Russias next moves. Is this a thing (deeper story) or were you merely using it as an example of a conspiracy theory?
