Russian zombieland is absolute evil
Denying obvious things is not Putin's delirium, but a technology of influencing Russians
Many people laughed at Putin's statement that Wagner did not exist because he was not officially registered. They have already written that the old man is insane and has fallen into dementia
In reality, things are much worse. Denying obvious things is not Putin's delirium, but a technology of influencing Russians, brought to perfection.
In a normal society, where people understand the difference between black and white, it is harder to manipulate people. When the government offers something to people, they analyze it and support or not support the government based on their own personal understanding of the problem.
Putin built a completely different model on Russia. When Putin talked about Donbas tractor drivers and tanks available at military sales, about Ukraine planning to attack Russia, and brazenly lied in person without concern for his reputation, he was not being stupid, but systematically and purposefully destroying the critical thinking of Russians.
“An ordinary Russian was sitting around the TV, watching Putin lie, and realizing that he was no longer able to understand anything. On the one hand, it was Russia that attacked Ukraine and occupied the territories, but on the other hand, Putin himself cannot be lying about Russia's defense.”
The more often Putin and his propagandists called the black "white", the more ordinary Russians lost touch with reality. And, at some point, they simply stopped bothering to figure out what was true and what was not. They got tired of it. They became disoriented and apathetic.
And what choice did they have? That's right! Just believe Putin. Without critical perception and unnecessary thoughts. He said that Prigozhin was a rebel, and everyone agreed. He made a deal with Prigozhin and now he is not a rebel, but a war hero - two days later, the Russians agreed with this.
“The total blatant lies of Putin and his propagandists are not out of stupidity. It's a technology to take away people's ability to think and replace it with the primitive reflex of listening to Putin and doing as he says.”
We have an extremely powerful enemy who is losing in technology, but is as strong as possible in psychology and human management. This zombieland is absolute evil. It must be destroyed.
