russian commies-orcs are pushing false narratives against the West

Six Narratives Russia and Its European Proxies Ran in Tandem
Narrative 6: “America Broken, the West Finished”
The sixth narrative exploited the US-Iran confrontation to advance the claim that Western global dominance is over.
RT framed the ceasefire as American “strategic capitulation”: “Faced with determined resistance, the US stepped back. None of the sweeping demands set out at the start of the operation were met. America can still influence outcomes but can no longer simply impose its will at any cost. That lesson has now been absorbed far beyond Tehran.”
RIA Novosti amplified Scott Ritter, a regular fixture in Russian state media, claiming: “The US is already broken. They have no solution. There is no solution for the Strait of Hormuz, and the situation will only get worse. All the trump cards are with the Iranians.”
Czech and Slovak proxy sites followed immediately. CZ24.news ran Ritter’s assertion that US military capability had declined to “near-total powerlessness” and that America “has no place” in the new Middle East paradigm.
Slovak skspravy.sk catalogued Trump’s repeated declarations of victory with open contempt: “How many times has Donald Trump already won against Iran? Perhaps seven or eight times he has declared that Iran suffered absolute defeat. From such conduct one can only conclude that the US Navy today does not have the courage to sail into the Strait of Hormuz.”

Meh, they are correct, but Russia wants no part of US smoke.

I mean just because its being pushed by Russia doesn't automatically make it false.
I don't need Russia to tell me some of that is true. I see it with my own eyes.

They’re right, but they also can’t do anything about it.
We should have brought them in when Yeltsin and then Putin were begging for investment and a pathway to NATO.
Instead we told them to frick off because our politicians (who are still in office) chose to govern as if it were 1974

ruzz orcs are eager to live in both the US and Europe.
They're trying by any means necessary to get to these places.
It's surprising they don't flee to their ideological comrades in china or north Korea.

Meh. Most if not all of the passive actions we have taken against Russia politically and economically are counterproductive and do nothing to achieve our goals.

This is true with respect to energy. Europe is essentially asphyxiating itself through idiotic energy policies and sanctions on Russian oil imports.
quote:
Narrative 3: “Europe’s Self-Destruction Is Inevitable”
Europe is actively destroying itself through net zero economic policies, de-growth initiatives, cumbersome welfare states, and unfettered immigration from the Islamic World. If they do not majorly reverse course (and soon) Europe will destroy itself.
quote:
Narrative 4: “Ukrainian Aid Is Theft From European Taxpayers”
This is an exaggeration. I wouldn’t call it theft, but it definitely doesn’t seem like the best deal for taxpayers at this point. Granted, Ukraine finally seems to be seriously gaining ground, so it’s not like everything contributed was completely for nothing.

Brainwashed by who or what?
Our entire media and political establishment has done nothing but preach the opposite for 3 decades.

For Americans important to know, where the roots grow from:
The Russian Federation must utilize its special services along the borders of the United States and Canada to foment instability and separatism in opposition to neoliberal, globalist Western hegemony—for instance, by provoking "African American racists" into a violent backlash against the rotten political status quo within the current U.S. and Canadian systems.
Russia must "inject geopolitical disorder into internal American affairs by encouraging all forms of separatism—ethnic, social, and racial conflicts—and by actively supporting all dissident movements, including extremist, racist, and sectarian groups, thereby destabilizing internal political processes within the United States. Concurrently, it would be prudent to foster isolationist tendencies within American politics."

His hateful ideology against us infiltrated Western right wing, but ppl still can not get it.

The weak part of this kind of article is when people hear "Russia amplifies X" as "therefore X is false". A lot of successful propaganda works precisely because it latches onto real tensions/grievances that already exist. People underestimate, though, how state actors can selectively amplify and bundle those grievances into a broader "the West is collapsing/democracy is fake/alliances are doomed" narrative because that framing benefits them geopolitically. Both things can be true.
