Being told this is fairly reliable for info on the situation in Ukraine. let me know if it isn’t. https://liveuamap.com/
“I’m so anti war it’s ridiculous, but you know what, I think we should send some troops to help our Ukrainian friends.” :reddit-logo: Really reminds me of “I’m way far left but you know what, Hillary is getting my vote” vibe
It’s easy to think you’re free of propaganda if you find yourself disagreeing with something the United States (or your home country whatever that may be) does. That’s not to say that the perfect ideology is saying no when the United States says yes and vice versa on every single issue, but just that it’s easy to be like “Logically, if I oppose what the United States did in this specific situation, I must be a free thinker and free of their beguiling influence on the media. Therefore, if I think that Ukraine needs troops from us, and I think that I came up with that idea myself and not because of the media manufacturing my consent, then it’s not because I’m a stooge for the United States like one of those people, I’m actually educated.” The intention is meaningful even if the ends are the same, according to them.
