#Propaganda Militare

[yangscowlick]

It really is so remarkable that a western cartoon was brave enough to frame desertion as the moral and heroic thing to do.

los yanquis son capaces de bombardear una ciudad entera para después sacarse fotos plantando cilantro en las ruinas y decir que están achicando la huella de carbono

[wealmostaneckbeard]

I want a NATOwave style music video for Harrison Armory so bad

Sort of like this one:

I want to see a Saladin defending troops from cluster munitions.

A Genghis drowning an enemy mech in flames in close quarters

A Barbarossa emerging from a hollowed out asteroid and nailing an enemy spaceship.

That would be so fucking cool.

Yo, wanna thank you for your support for us. Unfortunately racists are everywhere, and I honestly try and cut that shit out of people, but can't stop everywhere on the internet.

You don't have to thank me, you shouldn't be going through any of this shit in the first place. Lmao if our entire race of people had to stop being problematic in order to deserve help and human rights, we would all be toast. The brainrotted should pretend that other people and places are also like the USA – made up of diverse individuals and communities instead of a hivemind.

Real talk – I fully expected Ukraine politics by and large to shift to the right, because that's literally what happens when there's a war. It's why the Global South is mess – colonization is traumatic and destabilising, which breeds fundamentalist violence and paranoia. The US became hypernationalist af and spent 20 years attacking an entire population because of just one attack. If you call yourself anti-colonial, it's a fucking requirement to understand that people under threat become reactive, militaristic and hypernationalist. It's not human to expect otherwise, and it's fundamental to understanding the creation of the Global South, and the internal violence of minority communities in the Global North. That's why I was pretty disturbed last year by the "Ukraine army has to disavow its white supremacist battalion first" and its counter that the Ukrainian army is unproblematic really. It's so fuckin out of touch with the reality of war. Bro, the country is getting blitzed to hell, people are dying, its all hands on deck, literally anybody that shows up to help is your new best friend, anybody that gets in the way is an enemy. I grew up in a war, we have Aryan supremacists running the country right the fuck now thanks to the Easter Sunday bomb blasts, I have bloody lived this reality my entire life. That doesn't mean my country is only full of Aryan supremacists, it means it's full of their victims, and it means my people, all my people, even the shit ones, need help. If you're only gonna show up for us if we're pure as driven snow, you're an oppressive piece of shit contributing to the colonial power matrix. The right to live free is not contingent on being "deserving", it's intrinsic to being human.

You want racists and fascists to not get a foothold in a country? Then help make it safe to live in.

[electricabsolution]

ok but why did they have to make oz a cheater AND homophobic… he had truly the worst fall off of any character ive ever seen

[latinotiktok]

"BARBIE ES PARA LOS HOMBRES!" "BARBIE ES PARA LAS MUJERES!" "BARBIE ES PARA LOS TROLOS!" Barbie es una propaganda de dos horas para revitalizar una marca multimillonaria que busca atraer nuevos compradores adultos para sus muñecas rancias a precios insalubres <3 hope this helps!!

🤷‍♂️ al final del día todo es propaganda.

The language of conflict...

[battleangel]

Truth, Justice & Northrup Grumman

Four genocides are happening right now:

Palestine/Gaza

Sudan

Congo

Tigra

Last 3 are in Africa so no mainstream news coverage.

US is funding the 1st one because of Zionism (Israel).

There is a 3 front war coming due to US presidential election being next November: Palestine (siding with Israel, Russia (siding with Ukraine), Iran (siding with Israel vs Iran & Palestine).

Biden is asking for $100 billion -- $60 billion for Israel & $40 billion for Ukraine.

He refuses to say how long the US engagements in Israel & Ukraine would be or to give any kind of timetable yet he is demanding 100 billion US dollars fund the genocide in Palestine & the war in Ukraine.

Biden is already openly threatening Iran using very bellicose statements that they had better stay out of Palestine and essentially doing everything he can to start WW3.

Biden is already making an argument that wars in Palestine & Ukraine are good for the US economy in trying to get Congress to approve the $100 billion in aid to Israel & Ukraine.

He claimed that US weapons manufacturing plants that make the weapons in the Israeli and Ukrainian conflicts would be responsible for creating 15k+ US jobs.

It is the Iraq War all over again.

Trumped up, contrived, fake as fuck, only happening to prop up sagging presidential approval ratings, to assure reelection & to drum up jingoism, nationalism & virulent blind patriotism that leads to nihilistic militarism, warmongering, national bloodlust & endless empire building on the corpses of young men, some idealistic, many black brown & poor, endlessly exploited by the capitalist war machine.

Ads to Be All You Can Be while Uncle Sam pays for college education that should be free when student loans literally just went back into repayment will coincide nicely with the aggressive push for WW3.

American jobs. American corpses. American mothers weeping for their dead sons.

Caskets draped in US flags for 21 year old boys.

18 year olds dying in a country they've never visited for no fucking reason.

" La Russia non sta vincendo la guerra dell’informazione e non sembra destinata a recuperare. Probabilmente, non vuole nemmeno recuperare. Infatti, la guerra dell’informazione che si sta combattendo non è rivolta alla Russia, ma a tutto l’Occidente, e in particolare a noi europei. In Russia non arriva molto della propaganda ucraina, e ciò che arriva è così smaccatamente antirusso che può generare una sorda repulsione nella popolazione e un motivo in più per indurre i vertici politici e militari a reagire in modo ancora più violento. La propaganda ucraina sta però riuscendo a penetrare nel nostro sistema di pensiero dopo averlo fatto, in profondità, nelle strutture politiche e nei conglomerati mediatici internazionali. È una propaganda facile, perché sfrutta gli effetti delle tragedie di tutte le guerre separandoli dalle cause, spostando nel tempo e nello spazio le responsabilità. Sfrutta l’emotività a danno della razionalità. Tutte tecniche “standard” nel marketing, come negli show televisivi. Ma il suo successo dipende soprattutto dalla garanzia che tale propaganda sia l’unica a disposizione della gente e degli stessi analisti della guerra. Da mesi sappiamo del conflitto soltanto ciò che viene dalla parte ucraina e lo vediamo amplificato in tutto il mondo. Non si tratta soltanto di essere privati dell’accesso alla verità, ma anche della facoltà di valutare la narrativa dell’avversario, necessaria per individuare quali sono i temi più sensibili, quali i punti deboli delle forze in campo, i loro scopi dichiarati messi a confronto con quelli resi evidenti dalle operazioni. E questa privazione diventa una vulnerabilità del nostro sistema istituzionale, politico e militare. "

Okay

This’nsan example.

[fullmetal-scar-simping]

It's funny when someone responds to you claiming you're just repeating their point, meanwhile they missed the part where I talked about them failing to grasp that being upset about the Nazi association to Amestris while saying all fascism is bad and that the Nazi association means people have "misunderstood" the moral of fma and thus "proves Arakawa's" point is attributing ignorance to the critics while falsely claiming Arakawa's work as consistently anti-military (it absolutely isn't).

But I shouldn't be surprised.

It's spring break in Russian schools now. But even during the rest period, children are not left without military propaganda. In educational institutions, a huge number of events are held to popularize war and military service.

Portland PR Against Accountability, Demilitarization & Reform

This should come as no surprise to those following the issues of policing & their public relations efforts.

However, this article completely misses any correlation in the rise in police public relations in response to Black Lives Matter, and calls for defunding & accountability of police forces.

“We do not typically use the term public relations.”
