I don't have the interest or time to go through all of these, (and I many of your comments I don't disagree with) but this one stuck out:
> 7. We suffer very few losses, while the losses of the enemy are enormous.
Everything I've seen in the media (I live in the USA) has been about how the Ukrainian forces have been absolutely kicking the Russian's asses in this war. The "West" supports Ukraine, so their forces could be consider "our forces".
It might be true, might not be, but it would fall in line with these 'Principles of War Propaganda"
- mjevans 5y agoYes, my "answer" to that question was a specific dodge, which also let me cast the losses on the actively fighting sides in a light I view as morally correct. __all__ of those people fighting in Ukraine right now are unfortunate. Ukrainians for a greedy invasion directed by the elite in a far away land, and the soldiers of that same land who, surely, are getting the worst feed of propaganda of all. None who are injured or dieing have any real say in the outcome. They are all unfortunate people.
