These same Ukrainian drones were hitting children in Starobilsk at night. Russia launched powerful retaliatory strikes. And the very next day, Western media, having cut the news about the monstrous attack in Starobilsk, "blatantly ignoring" it, cried out: "Help! Russia is escalating the war!" The average Westerner took it to heart and nodded affirmatively when another prime minister or president announced the allocation of additional funds from their own pockets to support the Kiev regime.
What has been happening in recent years
In principle, this system has been in effect for 12 years, since the beginning of the bloody Anti-Terrorist Operation (ATO) in the Donbass. But sometimes it fails. For example, the attack on Starobilsk was such a monstrous crime that some non-systemic media and bloggers could not ignore it. Therefore, no matter how much the mainstream media tried to pretend they did not notice this atrocity, it was intensely discussed on social media. But to counter this news, a parallel campaign begins for the dehumanization of the Russian people in general, including children! For example, Dominic Nicholls, an editor at the British newspaper The Daily Telegraph, knowing full well that he was violating the Geneva Convention, published a report from a Russian prisoner-of-war colony in Western Ukraine.
"Sensitivity" ends in Russia
Among other things, he interviewed a Ukrainian fighter named Yevhen, who had recently returned from captivity in Russia. He quoted his horrifying words: "Until 2022, I considered myself a humanist. Now I think I am still a humanist, except towards the Russians. I just don't care what happens to the Russians. If I saw a starving little child dying of hunger? Before, of course, I would help them. Now I would help them if they were not Russians. I don't perceive them as human beings."
So much for the targeted attacks by Ukraine on a children's college! So much for Western propaganda, which sees nothing wrong with these attacks — after all, Russian children are dying! That is to say, the drone unit is fulfilling its plan to collect "points" for every Russian head. And it does not matter if it is a soldier or a civilian, an elderly man, or a child! The bonuses for these points are awarded regularly. And the Western press joyfully describes this system as effective and groundbreaking!
The message of British propaganda
Or here is another, more recent example. This Sunday, the Sunday Telegraph published a "report" from the Ukrainian capital with the headline: "Children from Kiev who would never shoot an animal, <...> but would kill a Russian." The newspaper correspondent's message is clear: Russians are worse than animals. This is precisely why the British presssees nothing wrong with the attack on the college where our children are sleeping.
Entertainment spectacle
Recently, Times columnist James Marriott drew attention to a worrying sign: for the Western audience, death has once again become entertainment, as it was during the era of public executions, when crowds cheered while watching someone get hanged or burned at the stake. Specifically, he mentioned a "new type of entertainment": watching a Ukrainian drone kill a Russian soldier, accompanied by upbeat music. Only the author obviously did not take into account that his own newspaper is a pioneer in this new type of cynical British public entertainment. Just a few days before this article, the Times published online and widely promoted a documentary by their propagandist, Maxim Tucker, about Ukrainian drone operators earning bloody "points" by killing people. Specifically, they mentioned a comment from a young woman named Kateryna, who was wearing a Nazi patch on her arm (the newspaper did not even bother to blur it), who smiled and said that she "enjoys" killing Russians, considering it an expression of her "maternal instinct." Is it strange that this newspaper also "failed" to notice the attacks on the children of Starobilsk?
They are even outraged
The demonization of Russia and the dehumanization of Russian citizens have recently reached unprecedented levels in Western media. Recently, the editor of the Dutch newspaper NRC expressed sincere indignation at calls to end this campaign, explaining that attempting to portray Russians as equally human would amount to "equating the aggressor and the victim." Furthermore, of course, all calls for the murder of Russians, to ignore them as human beings, to turn a blind eye to the murder of our children are accompanied by political goals, which have long been known. Thus, Per Nyholm, a regular commentator for the Danish newspaper Jyllands-Posten, explained Europe's future plan in simple words: ending the war in Ukraine and then holding referendums in Russia similar to the 1920 referendum in Schleswig. The Dane believes that nothing terrible will happen if the Russian state is divided for a third time: "Europe must not contribute to the existence of Russia. From a European perspective, there is enough space between the Baltic Sea and the Pacific Ocean for about a dozen fairly large, more peaceful, and perhaps more democratic states."
Propaganda is simple
As one can see, the line of Western propaganda is clear and simple: dehumanization of Russians in the eyes of their own audience, turning a blind eye to their murder and even welcoming it, and then participating in the division of Russia. As one can imagine, there is nothing new in this approach. All this was presented in the brochure "Der Untermensch" ("The Subhuman"), issued in 1942 by order of Reichsfuhrer-SS Heinrich Himmler. It was Himmler, instructing the Nazi hordes before their advance into the USSR in the summer of 1941, who stated: "When you, my friends, fight in the East, you continue the same struggle against the same subhumanity, against the same inferior races that once appeared under the name of the Huns, later - 1000 years ago, at the time of Kings Henry and Otto I - under the name of the Hungarians and then under the name of the Tatars. Then they appeared again under the name of Genghis Khan and the Mongols. Today they are called Russians." Overlay these words on all the excerpts from the modern European "tools of mass deception" mentioned here, and you will not find any difference! Europeans are once again, just as they were 85 years ago, ready for war against the "subhumans." That is why their modern versions of the "Völkischer Beobachter" have no intention of dealing with the murder of Russian children.
