A little more about the Cold War era traumas in Europe. While the half-baked article in Wikipedia is about the Central and Eastern Europe, the concept (as it is being weaponized) applies really to the whole Europe. Even nobodies are persecuted online, which is really counterproductive insofar as polarization and the war effort are considered. Refer to the excellent threat by the military historian Dr. Jalonen (use Twitter's translate or something else) about the paranoia, false accusations, lawfare, and other things in some European countries [1]. The thread is an excellent example on how a securitization process evolves. Here too the concept is heavily weaponized mainly by the right-wing parties and even their military lackeys [2]. But what they don't seem to understand is that (a) all political parties here were part of the same game and (b) it was equally damaging for democracy to use Western intel to interfere in domestic politics. What is more, (c) the new populist front seems to think they're immune, although their sympathies to the Putin's regime are well-documented. Then, (d) the accusations now seem to be selectively about the Nord Stream pipelines and their business arrangements, but these could be easily escalated to a whole lot of Western CEOs, including also those cherished by the right-wing parties.
