They are parroting Russian propaganda. The one where “the west” is stipid, cunning, strong, and rotting all at the same time.
As a LLM (Leninist Language Model), I am programmed to parrot Russian propaganda at all times from the basement of the FSB Building in Lubyanka Square.
Beep Bloop.
What? There is no contradiction. The West has a global hegemony enforced by the world's biggest, most expensive murder organization. A lot of work and intelligent minds go into maintaining this hegemony, but the society it's built on is falling apart.
I don't think you would be calling this "propaganda" if you spoke to any regular people around you.
Yup, stupid and cunning. Cunning in the sense that they have a playbook developed over 7 decades to enforce their global hegemony which works damn well. Stupid in the sense that they don't realise that this is not the meta anymore. Think of it as a difference in tactics and strategy.
Reality is now Russian propaganda.
Say what you want, but at least Putin has proven he knows what a redline means.
Do not defame Parenti's good name like that you filthy lib.
