The Russo-Ukrainian War is a unique event in human history.
It is the only recorded case of a social, political, and military event that happened without causes.

These events clearly demonstrate how easily any free, democratic society can slide toward dictatorship simply by discouraging critical thinking and spreading biased news—or, in some cases, blatant lies.
This mass disinformation campaign spread so effectively and quickly in Western countries because it leveraged two important aspects of human psychology. One is the embedded sense of superiority we inherited from the colonial age (I discussed this argument in my previous article). The second is the fear of an external threat. With both of these factors in place, even well-educated people found it natural to shut down their own reasoning and become part of the propaganda machine.
This article does not aim to convince the reader of anything, but rather to provide additional pieces of the puzzle that were purposely omitted by mainstream media for years. It is up to you, the reader, to form your own opinion about the tragic events that continue to unfold before our eyes.
