THE 'POOR UKRAINE' SYNDROME IS GOING TO SELF-DESTRUCT

Ukrainian radicals are being encouraged into Europe and the USA by the utterly naive and hugely misinformed state and media conditioning exercise that is generating the ‘Poor Ukraine’ syndrome.

The western world has gone completely gooey and air-brained in a lunatic sanitising of some of the most evil men and women on the planet. Amazon is selling their Nazi-symbol infested clothing, their vile personages have even appeared alongside Zelensky in his poor-me, poor Ukraine zoom pleadings to parliaments.

But none of this will last the next six months I predict.

With news this week that the USA alone has stopped 5,000 Ukrainians attempting to illegally cross its borders we see the start of this process.

And if the number of people waking up to the sadistically evil acts of its most infamous Ukrainians on Twitter is anything to go by an awakening to the true reality of Ukraine’s recent past and the denizens the West is lauding as heroes is underway.

It is usual when a war is waged for both sides to enter a war mode where jingoism rather than objective reality is order of the day, but in the age of the 24 hour news cycle and social media the conditioning effect leading to eventual blindness is utterly pernicious.

So surprising was the speed with which all the official lies about Iraq were forgotten that I suppose I should not be surprised at the alacrity with which the current conditioning on Ukraine is accepted. However, it does still take you aback when seen in such a virtually uniform delivery of disinformation so quickly imbibed as the gospel truth.

Of course it’s a great tale, one of those can’t-miss good and evil tales that can quickly turn a usually logical mind to jello and creep straight past the grey matter that normally can smell a giant sized rat when one comes that close.

The Ukraine western populations are “Ohoo-ing and Ahh-ing about is as real as the Tooth Fairy or Santa Claus and has about as much reality to it as an episode of a Fifties cowboy movie. But this tale is made to measure and the measurement entails the degree to which the majority of western thought skims along the surface of news like a cat on ice.

Western headline surfers are perfect for being turned into unknowing guinea pigs for those who have the exact psychological measure of them. They don’t stand a chance. Like Pavlov’s Dogs they can be made to emotionally salivate at will.

And no one (or hardly anyone) seems any the wiser. That poor little Ukraine is being invaded and destroyed by the totally evil Russian bear is fed in new morsels every blessed day, fed directly into the shrunken ever-receptive brains of Mr and Mrs Average and their image-obsessed kids. Hey, here’s an issue to charge up your deadened emotions.

“Look Johnny and Joni, it’s those evil monsters, those zombie, death-dealing Russians drinking the blood of poor little Ukrainians! (Thinks: I know I can make you come alive and at last we can talk about something and protest together.) Stand with Ukraine! Zelensky is Ghandi! Give him the Nobel Peace Prize!”

And… so it goes.

But for how long?

When the violence the Ukrainian right brings to Europe and North America starts to bite, when Azov thugs can’t find jobs paying what they want and become paid assassins and mobsters, drug runners and who knows what else… how will those bleeding heart liberals feel about them then?

When middle-class families go bankrupt, losing their homes and livelihoods or small businesses due to the blowback from the penalties the West used to attack Russia… what then?

When the price you pay for basic necessities hits unheard of ranges and you can no longer afford to heat your home (in the event you still have one) when your elderly parents die from malnutrition or the cold… how will your love affair with the ‘poor Ukrainians’ seem to you then?

When the news leaks out that it wasn’t the Russians that did Bucha, Kramatorsk, the Mariupol theatre, the schools, hospitals and all else that you raved and ranted at them for, what then?

When you hear what the USA and UK plotted via NATO to undermine Russia’s security, when you finally see the videos of Ukrainian troops torturing young Russian troops by shooting them in the genitals and gouging their eyes out… what then?

How will you feel about your beloved Ukrainians then?

I predict in six months or less from now you will feel sick to your stomach that you have been so deliberately deceived and at that point…
