MASTERS OF DECEPTION— PUTIN VS. THE GLOBALISTS
Hardline conservatives have become so adept at seeing the constant lies of the mainstream media, especially during the last two years when so much about the Covid pandemic was falsified, that they have come to the flawed conclusion that everything the establishment media says must be false, that globalists can only lie, and that those they attack must be our friends. Last week I spent considerable time and effort trying to explain why many conservatives are wrong in their attempts to blame the Ukraine war on globalist intervention and that Putin is not a friend to the anti-globalist cause and that he is not “liberating Ukraine” from these nasty globalists. Despite my historical evidence that the 2014 Maidan coup in Ukraine was a falsified coup to bring to power a Putin puppet (Petro Poroshenko), conservatives continue to believe it was a Western coup. They continue to produce and spread a massive barrage of pro-Putin and anti-Zelensky opinions within the alternative media—even to the extent of refusing to believe all the reports and pictures of the real state of the Russian attacks on civilians in urban areas in Ukraine; they have become one-dimensional thinkers. But the world is much more sophisticated and deceptive now. Both Putin and the globalists are masters of deception, false flags, infiltration and corruption. The globalists can easily switch sides and even tell the truth when it suits their purposes. This week I will explain why they are doing so now with Russia.
