I suppose after coronavirus, the general consensus among the population is that no one should ever die for any reason, and that this is playing into the alleged importance of the war in the Ukraine.
Maybe it’s too much to connect the two things, beyond the fact that they are both representative of generalized mass hysteria and the collapse of reality itself at the hands of a ubiquitous electronic media.
However, it should be noted, for anyone who is still paying attention to reality, that there have been a lot of wars in the world, where a lot of people died, which the United States did not intervene in or send weapons to one side of – and in most cases, did not even bother to implement sanctions in response to.
A reader put together this list of conflicts and death tolls since 1980.
For context, between 2014 at the Maidan and last week – an eight-year period – about 20,000 people have died in the Russia-Ukraine war, virtually all of them killed by the Ukrainians (many by the neo-Nazi Azov Battalion, funded by the US State Department and armed with Israeli weapons).

The idea that the US government and media are just really concerned about random people dying anywhere on earth is idiotic and nonsensical. It does not in any way jive with the reality situation.
The only time that we get these massive campaigns by the government/media regarding the terrible tragedy of death in some country 98% of Americans can’t point to on a map is when there is some other agenda at work.
Try to imagine if you had nonstop media coverage of a war in the Second Congo War, with the entire Congress, news media and celebrity industrial establishment calling for arming the Lord’s Resistance Army insurgency.
Imagine if the Lord’s Resistance Army flag was being flown at the Ohio State House.
Imagine if Americans were buying tens of thousands of Lord’s Resistance Army candles to support Congolese refugees.
That would actually, in real terms, make a lot more sense than what is going on now, because the Congo wars were a lot more brutal than the Ukrainian war – like, a lot, a lot.
More than five million people died.
After the war was basically over, the transitional government just decided to genocide the pygmies because they didn’t like them very much. Over a period of 3 months, they killed 60,000 of them.
No one even knew any of this was happening, or cared about it. But there is no real reason that it couldn’t have been on the media 24/7 and marketed as the most tragic and important event in modern history. There is no reason that the media couldn’t have said that Laurent Désiré-Kabila was a psycho maniac trying to take over the world.
The situation in the Congo affects my life as much as the situation in the Ukraine affects my life. Or, that should be the case – of course, it isn’t the case, because the Jews are willing to collapse the entire global economic order, and potentially kick off a nuclear war, for the purpose of trying to destroy Russia.
And think of the Chechen wars – that was literally the same thing. Putin was preventing a territory that wanted independence from Russia from gaining that independence. No one cared about that, because in the 1990s and 2000s, Russia was not considered a relevant threat to global Jewish hegemony.
The reality is, the war in the Ukraine could just as easily be a back page news story that virtually no one in America is even aware of.
The entire thing is simply a sham.
The war is actually happening in real life, but the entire story we are hearing and the way we are hearing it means that the whole situation is effectively just another hoax.
(This is an oldie, but a goodie – and highly relevant. Frankly, I hadn’t heard it in a while, and am just remembering how amazing it was when it was released and I first heard it as a teenager. It probably shaped my understanding of the way the media affects the human soul quite a bit.)
