It's both depressing and annoying that someone like Sachs, virtually all dissenting voices are so marginalized in our mainstream media. They are the chief source of real misinformation about what's happening in Ukraine, at the same time as they trumpet the huge lie that they are the fountain of Truth. I wouldn't have believed that it was posssible, in kind of liberal democracy, with a press that says it's free and independent of the state and political control, to achieve such extraordinary levels of conformity and censorship, when we, in the West, officially, aren't even directly involved, militarily, in this war. Whilst control of the narrative reminds one of WW1, in stark contrast, we haven't seen tens of thousands of ordinary citizens filling the streets of our cities and cheering for war against Russia. So that's a positive, no?
