This isn’t the exact clip, which I can’t find because I’m still banned from Twitter, but it’s a related clip from the same guy
Right-wingers are constantly mocked by the mainstream as “conspiracy theorists.” But if you actually follow the mainstream, they are putting forward more extreme conspiracy theories than Alex Jones and all of his special guests combined.
It’s not just big psyops like the Trump-Russia conspiracy theory hoax. They actually just put stuff out there constantly that has no more validity than anything some asshole on the internet just made up, but people take it seriously because it is from the government/media.
Ukraine’s leaders must guard against a possible attack led by Yevgeny Prigozhin launched at Kyiv from Belarus, General Lord Richard Dannatt tells Trevor Phillips on Sky News.
“The fact that he’s gone to Belarus is a matter of some concern,” said the former British Army chief of general staff.
If he has “kept an effective fighting force around him then he presents a threat again to the Ukrainian flank closest to Kyiv”, where the war began, he said.
Lord Dannatt said it “is quite possible” that Russia may use the Wagner Group to try and take Kyiv again.
“The aftershocks of yesterday will reverberate for quite some time.”
Nonetheless, there were no immediate “winners” from “yesterday’s fiasco”, he said.
“Putin is definitely much diminished. The Russian military… is clearly in some disarray,” said Lord Dannatt.
These are unbelievable words from an authority figure.
I don’t even understand what it means.
He is apparently suggesting that the coup was a staged hoax designed to get Prigozhin into Belarus. Like he couldn’t have just, you know, gone to Belarus on a plane. But he also says that the coup attempt weakened Russia and Putin. So if it was fake, and it weakened the state, why did they do it?
It is actually just nonsense, purely, of the most vile sort.
This is what happened: the headlines include “Wagner,” “Prigozhin,” and “Belarus,” and this guy’s job is to come up with an evil story involving those three words.
So it is: “Prigozhin could reconstitute Wagner in Belarus and attack KEEV.”
I think that’s all it is.
This is probably being put together by ChatGPT.
They know that people are very busy with their own problems, and only see headlines or hear bits of things, so they take the main words from a real news story and come up with some evil plan.
Honestly, the Western media has degraded a lot in recent years. I think it used to be primarily about getting people to believe falsehoods, and now it seems more about creating confusion.
This asshole can throw something out in 60 seconds – “Prigozhin is going to Belarus to lick his wounds and plan an attack on Keev.” If someone said that to me in a conversation, because they had heard it on the media from this guy, I don’t know what I would do. I think I would just freeze up and start stuttering. It would take hours and hours, thousands of words, to explain how stupid that is to someone who was so uninformed they were capable of believing it.
Insofar as there is a coherent message to the media, it is all comic book stuff. They do this “good guys and bad guys” thing in a way that, 50 years ago, you wouldn’t be able to convince a 5-year-old was true.
If there are only good guys (anal) and bad guys (anti-anal), then you don’t really have a framework for an internal struggle in Russia. It has to be part of an evil plan of the bad guys.
In this case, Prigozhin would be like the Joker. You send him to exile and he reforms the gang, like he would always reform the gang in Arkham.
