[imaginethat]

Comprehensive analysis.

The Kremlin has long spread disinformation and propaganda to achieve its objectives. It continues to disseminate lies to justify its unprovoked, unjustifiable invasion of Ukraine. Below, you will find a sample of the many lies by the Russian regime about its invasion of Ukraine, along with the truth. This information is based on Government of Canada intelligence.

You can limit the spread of disinformation by knowing how to identify it and being critical about what you read.

Countering misinformation?

Just ignore the mainstream news channels!

[QuaseMarco]

Why is the Government of Canada a trusted source of truth?.....

I saw what they did to their own people during the pandemic.

We must be reverting to the Minister of Information or the Politiburo again?

"... based on Government of Canada intelligence." Seriously, SERIOUSLY!?!

Man oh man, some folks are just gullible. We need to fight MISinformation right here in this country. First by this Biden regime and then BY their leftwing lapdogs in the medias. And we can start with the BS they have been feeding us all about RUSSIA SO that Biden regime could get us INVOLVED in another war that has nothing to do with us and so they can send billions of our tax dollars to that corrupted country, Ukraine. And thanks to all this we are getting threats of a, NUCLEAR WAR . You can send your thanks to this corrupted GUBERMENT and their corrupted lapdogs in the medias.

Anything produced by the Federal Government of Canada, is mis-information, leading to a specific narrative. I know, I am Canadian. Don't use this information as fact. Especially, when the Government is the Liberal/New Democrats coalition. That's just doubling down on lies.

Thank you dear. And the same goes for our Guberment and their lapdogs in our: NOT SO FREE Press.

Thanks to everyone for demonstrating why the GOP is mostly irrelevant and is on a course to become more irrelevant.

Not one person took on even one of the points in the document. Nope, everyone "already knows" it's wrong. And that attitude, for sure, is wrong.


The RW "already knows" all it needs to know. It will declare mainstream news sources categorically wrong (unless a MSM article is "on their side) but will declare any other source no matter how flaky it might be, to be right whenever it tells them what they already know.


I am convinced that our constitutionally limited democratic republic MUST have a functional RW to operate as our Founders intended. Presently, the RW is dysfunctional running down every conspiratorial side road imaginable.


The very first section of the report;


The facts:

• Independent observers from the International Atomic Energy Agency have found no indication that Ukraine is using its nuclear power plants as military sites.
• Since seizing Ukraine’s Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant in the early days of the invasion, Russian occupation forces have continually stationed military assets in and around the facility.
• Russia’s claims are likely intended to generate confusion about the risk of Western military support to Ukraine, while deflecting attention from Russian behaviour at a major nuclear installation.

Russia’s false claim:

• Russia claims that Ukraine is using its nuclear power plants to house military equipment, raising the risk of a nuclear catastrophe that would affect neighbouring countries.

Ah but no one looked at it, because they know whatever is in there it's wrong.


No you don't, and this attitude cripples the RW, makes if irrelevant, and the nation suffers because of it.


I really hope the RW can unplug from conspiracy land and focus on what the RW has always added to the national dialogue: protecting personal liberty, working toward limited government, standing tall for the rule of law, fiscal Responsibility, and free markets, among other conservative values.


I'm not hopeful. Conservatives biggest enemy are defeatist conservatives, who have complaining about things down pat but not much else.
