„It is vital to keep all eyes and ears on Mr. Putin’s deeds and not be distracted by his words. He launched a war of aggression to destroy Ukraine as a democracy and as a nation-state. There can be no compromise with this depravity.“ washingtonpost.com/opinions/…
„We’d have done far better to only report on the tweets that actually conveyed new information — which is what we should do now.“ washingtonpost.com/opinions/…
„In the United States, and to an extent in Britain, democracy has become minority rule, and the minority holding power is unrepresentative, angry and increasingly radical.“ washingtonpost.com/opinions/…

„Rien ne ressemble plus aux jeunes Européens que les jeunes Russes. La jeunesse de ce pays n’est nullement friande de guerres et amoureuse de la dictature. C’est avec elle que nous pourrons construire une paix durable en Europe.“

In any case, emphasizing surface-level hypocrisies is usually not very helpful, certainly not when dealing with the American Right. The danger to democracy is not the hypocrisy – it’s the underlying political project to which conservatives are fully and consistently committed.

“Polarization” is a dodge for those in the mainstream media who remain addicted to false balance and moral equivalence. Instead of pointing to one party’s descent into radicalism, they advance the false idea that both parties are becoming extreme. washingtonpost.com/opinions/…
Bonne chance à toute l'équipe!

“The chief reason to doubt how much Meloni will change Italy is simply that she is neither as popular nor as powerful as her electoral victory may suggest,” writes @Yascha_Mounk: theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv…

But yes, the fictions provided in the media exercise will be implausible. And deliberately so. The way Russian propaganda works is to tell a lie that everyone knows is a lie, and then to show by force that there is no alternative to living as though the lie were true. 12/
