geert
i am finding it very difficult to understand the urgency to counter
russian state propaganda
here in the uk, its impossible to show neutrality or any support for
operation z - you will be emotionally or violently attacked
this is the result of a NATO mass propaganda campaign targetted at the
domestic population
here the news is constantly that putin is insane, likes killing kids and
ukraine is winning the war
i am sure the situation is the same in .nl
so why focuss on .ru propaganda ? it is having almost zero effect on the
western populations
how does your project differ from western state propaganda units
spreading anti-russian dis-information to the general public ?
regards
heath

The project is conducted mainly with Waag, Universiteit van Amsterdam, Free
Press Unlimited, HvA, and us, the Institute of
Network Cultures. All the organisations are based in the Netherlands. The
publication is printed on demand by Lulu. No other
funding or support is involved.
>> are ukrainian citizens (not 'shocked' but liberated) from the donbas region
included in this project ?
Lia Dostlieva is a Luhansk born author, who fled the country after the
full-scale invasion in February. Almost all the other
authors have been residing in what is now non-occupied parts of Ukraine.
>> is this publication available to russian speaking ukrainian citizens or is
the russian language banned in his publication as
well as in ukraine ?
The whole publication is in English with all the authors submitting the essays
in this language. Thus, the publication is
unfortunately exclusive for those who do not speak English. There is some
Russian used in the screenshots explaining Russian
state propaganda in the text by Ukrainian researcher Karyna Lazaruk and Marc
Tuters.
