Unsolved Mysteries and the 2024 Russia-Ukraine Information War - William Spaniel

[TexasTowelie]

2024 has begun a new phase of the war between Russia and Ukraine, and this time it is all about information. Today's video is about the manipulation of that information space in the context of lines on maps theory. Information wars presuppose that there is some underlying truth about the world, and each side is trying to convince the other that its own perception is correct and the rival's is wrong. We will cover how Ukraine's 2023 offensive fits into this and the long list of unsolved mysteries that are keeping the information war clouded.
