Ron Unz (about whom I have grave doubts) has an article — The True History of World War II — on unz.com. What timing. I haven’t heard his thesis yet. But listening to the opening recording, I note his comments that such speeches/presentations as that given by John Mearshimer in 2014 regarding the real causes of the situation in Ukraine would have been seen by mere hundreds instead of tens of millions were it not for social media and Youtube.
True.
But what all these folks never address is this: All this information — all the “truth” about what the evil parasite class are up to (them, not us, of course) — has had exactly zero effect. The genocides, war crimes, rape, murder, theft, destruction of the biosphere, etc. — “man’s inhumanity to man” — has not diminished in the tiniest amount.
So what difference did it make?
There is an underlying issue here that no one — no one — seems willing to address. I have been shouting it out for about a decade now, if not longer: Walt Kelly was right: we have met the enemy and he is us.
WE, not the “1%”, are the authors of our own demise.
WE are the ones who create the hell on Earth that we seem determined to reproduce day in and day out. WE are the ones who push the stupid and ambitious scapegoats up onto the pedestals and drape them in bright colors and shiny bits of metal and height-magnifying hats and more while we genuflect and abase ourselves and agree to do as we are told, knowing full well that we’ve chosen precisely the right “leaders” to give us permission to exercise our absolute worst impulses upon each other.
That is the truth that cannot be told, not even by the leftiest of leftists.
Unz:
But suppose these powerful video platforms did not exist, nor their social media distribution channels, nor any other elements of today’s Internet.
Under those conditions, Mearsheimer, Sachs, McGovern, and all these other highly-credentialed experts might still hold exactly the same contrary views of our conflict with Russia, but would anyone have ever heard about them?
Mearsheimer’s 2014 lecture would have only been seen by its original audience of several hundred, and when the war broke out eight years later, perhaps a few of them might have dimly remembered his arguments, rather than the thirty million who then discovered his presentation and watched it in 2022.
After Carlson was fired by FoxNews, he would have disappeared almost without a trace, never attracting the many millions of viewers who have continued to watch him on the Internet.
I repeat: so?

The issue you raise is important.
It is something I keep on coming back to--namely, the willingness of the "Masses" to be...um..."massified" -- to become a herd of happy, happy cows fattened and massaged as the Japanese do with Kobe beef before slaughter .
Wagyu cows….. before…
After…..
Only $700 in the Wagyu Restaurant I know where all the Japanese media people go.
Beef provides us humans with nutrition. The "Masses" provide their owners with nutrition too -- labor, production, service, money -- the vitamins and minerals and protein of happy, happy billionaire life. Yes, billionaires are cannibals.
The Media keep the cows (or pigs) happy.
The fault dear Brutus is not in our stars. Nor, dear Brutus in YouTube and the media. It is in ourselves.
Caitlin Johnstone pretends it is all the fault of the media. Nope. It is the happy, happy cows. (or pigs?) who are really responsible. The Cows flock to her site and say, “Moo, Moo”. But they could run away if the wanted. Of kick their herders to death.
Nose rings are really popular right now. Guess why? You want to be led because we are all led.
The Internet was originally open range, home to not only cows but antelope and deer and wolves and coyotes and buffalo and human hunters. Now we have fenced it in. Killed off as much as we can. We feed our cows (and hogs and chickens) antibiotics and hormones.
But nature wins in the end.
Coffee time
I like pigs. I feel a bond.
Please support my animal family— me, Chappy, Ichi— and all my animal friends by buying us coffee.
We always hear of these issues, and there seems no solution. The herd is unmoved, and we assume that the unherded few cannot achieve anything themselves. I made a discovery while reading the Quran not long ago. It goes like this. God asks us to worship Him alone. The one we obey is the one we worship, so the Quran is telling us that we should obey no one but the Almighty (that means the Quran and the practice of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) also called his Sunnah. To obey anyone or anything else is to worship that person or thing, an act of blasphemy. This means that all man made edicts and laws are nul and void. Only the Quran and Sunnah is valid. If we apply this in life, all the power that certain people exercise over us will disappear like mist before the morning sun. If we can understand the magnitude of this finding, we will understand why we are told that this message to us via His messenger serves to set us free. Then no one can cause WWIII because no one will (legitimately) heed the call to battle. We have Common Law. We have Roman Law, and we have Religious Law. That is enough law to guide our judiciary when adjudicating in disputes brought before it. Let us think about this with an open mind.
Caitlon Johnson, who I had the pleasure in 2019 of educating about Bidens regime she was pumping up to be the saviours of America. She became all offensive calling me a Trump living freak, a strawman & God knows what else. After explaining to her I was, British & I couldn't give a shit which criminal the Americans chose. She refused to believe me, I explained to her the huge amount of share holdings Bidens inner circle of politicians owned in the MIC. Which guaranteed some fantasy evil dictators Country was next in line for a War if he win the election. Of course she labelled me every nice name under the Sun, being the died in the wool Democrat she was. She hated the facts I laid out for her, about the amount of innocent people slaughtered. While the Democrats were in power in America. I did say the Republicans were the same lying corrupt vermin. Once again reminding her I was British & standing outside looking in. It always amazed me how passionate Americans got about their politicians . When it clearly didn't matter who was in power. The same old shit kept happening. She blocked me if course, as self righteous arseholes hate the Truth. Sure enough it took Bidens criminal cabal no time to set us on the way to WW3. Believe me I made her remember her insults to me under a different account while telling her "I told you So". Now shes decided to hate all politicians & media. We're all allowed to make mistakes, but I never asked for the personal insults & still haven't received an apology despite asking her for 1 a few times. She's not the fantastic human being she likes to portray herself of being. Then again neither am I. I'm just a smart arse who can see what's in front of my face.
