Dahnsouff Posted 5 April 2022 Share Posted 5 April 2022 5 hours ago, WigstonWanderer said: Nationalism is such a pernicious political tool, and has been used over and over and over again by regimes of various persuasions to manipulate its citizens into allowing heinous crimes. It is difficult to accept that everyday Russians are not at least partially complicit for allowing themselves to be manipulated in this way. They will bear the shame of these atrocities in the same way that the German people had to after the Second World War. My personal take (could be wrong) is that it is sometimes difficult for us in the west and other more open societies to comprehend the opaque control other countries/regimes populaces may be under. It seemed certain early in the conflict how the internal propaganda was managing the peoples beliefs, their decreasing access to varied news sources and this coupled with a history of such control makes any level of complicity difficult to understand.

LiberalFox Posted 6 April 2022 Share Posted 6 April 2022 It's a way of life for some but also once someone has fallen for one conspiracy theory they can become credulous to a whole range of other conspiracy theories since the premise is largely the same. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Breaking ranks with the EU on decisions on dealing with Russia will be a slippery slope This is not good news. The problem is, we're hamstrung by mainland Europe's dependence on Russia for its energy supplies and there is a contractually binding agreement between all parties involved. I'm not sure how the EU would resolve this. Are we going to start sanctioning any country that agrees to buy Russian gas in Roubles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
