Reading the news here in SSweden now, it's all "passive voice". Not a harsh word used against the US. No condemnation.
They call it "tensions" when the US have been massacring civilians. They do the drug propaganda but with the whole probable deniability shtick "according to the US" and just keep repeating it ad nauseam until it becomes the truth). They say Maduro have been "arrested". No clue how US can "arrest" people in, let a lone leaders of, sovereign nations but there you go. They talk about explosions like it's it's the weather, just happening, oh and some planes flew over for some reason. No correlation.
But then they admit, in the same article, that it's the US doing it and assure me that "some of the buildings hit have been military targets". Wow, that's a relief, those other buildings
Also, again, bombing a sovereign nation should be... problematic? Never mind I guess...
And so on. Like a wall of text to water it down. At the very end of the article they mention that the US might have interest in the natural resources but you know it's just the ~~hamas controlled~~ Venezuelan goverment saying it. Never mind that Trump is just straight up admitting it, no need to report that.
we've fully vassalized. riding it hard. doing tricks on it.
Thanks for this, now I don't have to take the psychic damage of looking at what the national news of Finland is writing, it would be identical to this.
Well I did it, shouldn't have.
The Finnish assholes are interviewing regime change venezuelans like they are the voice of the country, framing this as a good thing and calling the attack "an operation with surgical precision" and this is when I had to nope out.
