10 days agoYou can already see the hallmark signs of a state funded media campaign to undermine any and all claims that the ceasefire has been broken and continues to be so.
They’re using the fact that people are tired of seeing and reading about horrible things knowing they have no control over it. As a result, the public are now personally invested (mental wellbeing) into the ceasefire being real. Even if the bombing campaign and conditions are nearly identical to pre-“ceasefire” levels, the general public is exhausted and takes the (still propagandized) media’s coverage as truth.
Let’s use a school bully allegory to see how bad it is.
Big Bully has been stealing lunches and sitting on Little Billy since Big Bully moved into town. Little Billy kicks his shin and steals a nickel and hides it. Big Bully retaliates by pulling off Little Billy’s fingernail and promises to stop if he gets his nickel back. Little Billy complies; Big Bully continues pulling the next fingernail.
All of the teachers are watching horrified, but the superintended is Big Bully’s parent.
