Very intresting lecture by Yale University’s Timothy Snyder on the crisis in Ukraine. The full speech can be found here, the part I posted is especially interesting because it very neatly manages to sum up why blatant lies about the conflict propagated by the RF goverment are so effective and why the majority in Russia and even a lot of people in the West still continue to believe them despite pressing evidence against them. The scariest thing for me is the close similarity to Orwellian police state methods.
"Ukraine: from Propaganda to Reality"

Indeed, I am getting tired of seeing all these Conspiracy Theories on the web by the Kremlin Apologists, Conspiracy Kooks and Anti-American bigots.
These people have deluded themselves from reality and will likely never the see the true light of day. Its funny how they claim its truth yet common sense completely debunks their argument.
Don't let the Kooks bring you down to their level, continue to believe in reality.
