Propaganda reality is always clearer than the real. She immediately answers not only the asked questions. Propaganda holds a dialogue with mass consciousness, while leading it along the right way.
A competitor of propaganda in terms of “correct” diverting from reality steel and TV shows. They may not build the correct reality, as propaganda should do, they simply “remove” us from the real world, sending us to an artificial.
When the series appeared (and now they are always and for every taste) they began to take the attention of mass consciousness from. politicians. You can even recognize the series as a kind of intellectual drug. A person for several hours a day is disconnected from the events of our time, and does it with joy, and not under compulsion.

Strong propaganda is trying to replace the reality that in some contexts she succeeds. It is especially successful in cases where the deviation from propaganda follows the punishment. An example of such a punishment is Russian " Every writer or speaker can get this “title” if his version of reality begins to differ from propaganda. Even Lenin on the " That is, " " And the state loves all the truths to be the same. For this reason, the list of foreign agents is growing all the time.
The situation is aggravated when happiness from real becomes information. We live in the information age, so the states are trying to command what is true and what is not. The states always tell their truth louder.
The war remains war, although it is informative, although physical. Tasks - to grab the brains or capture the body - in principle close to the goal. And in that and in another case, a person ceases to be an independent subject, he becomes part of another system. The right to independence is very valuable, especially since its own state also does not really want to allow it.
The Soviet man was all the time, in fact, in the " He was an October, pioneer, Komsomol member. October with a portrait of young Lenin on his chest, a pioneer with a mountain, a Komsomolets with a shovel at a construction site. These are massive " Each such “step” sets the types of permitted and prohibited behavior.
There was undoubtedly the legal system in the USSR, but it was on paper, but in reality everything was decided by politics, not the right. Remember the words from the song - "
Stalin “raised” the mass consciousness for a long time not to speak and not repeat what is not in the newspapers. The pre -war Ukraine had an independent information source - Kobzary. But in 1935. They were destroyed, and the remaining joined the general choir that glorified Stalin.

Mass societies love mass communications, since they are easier to control, that is, to censor. At the same time, censorship is never called censorship anywhere, since this concept itself is censored. Censorship prohibits saying the word "
We talk a lot about the information war, forgetting that it is aimed at changing the world by changing the information picture in the heads. The physical world will be lost to someone who won the struggle in the information world. Soviet youth looked towards the United States, never being there. All information was secondary. Moreover, the information became cultural “fragments” - films, jeans, sneakers, according to which a person in his head “collected” a whole picture. And this picture of the world in the head defeated the Soviet - both the picture of the world, and reality.
In fact, the brains were ahead of reality. And the decision made is very difficult to change, since in the head there has already been switching all the information to this decision. The contrary to her went to the periphery. Komsomol ticket turned out to be a weak protection from someone else's, if not alien influence.
In the world of large decisions, citizens do not participate at all. They are simply convinced to approve the correctness of the actions of the authorities, that is, to join the already adopted correct decision. And the citizen understands well what non -compliance can be obtained by the head. And this cannot please anyone.
The world of a citizen is not a world of decision -making, it is a world of execution of decisions of strangers. Only mini-solutions are available to him-like to drink kefir in the morning or not. Decisions of this level do not affect anything outside the room.
Our heads are clogged with information, and this is completely meaningless information, since we rarely influence decision making. We can think anything, it is not scary, because others make decisions. The level of our solution is to cook sausages for breakfast or not. And this also requires brain effort.

The war " On the one hand, it should survive elementary, and in such conditions there are difficulties. On the other, he was “raised” to the level of sharply overstated - geopolitical allies: who is who and why. Russia also sets the third danger - the shelling of the Ukrainian territory, that is, even a purely physiological protection is included, in which rationality gives way to emotional response.
By the way, the war turned out to be no need for anyone. Russia could not win, although it proceeded from some of its calculations to win. She was influenced by the positive experience of the capture of the Crimea, when the West did not react in any way. Now, however, on the contrary, Trump's arrival complicated the Ukrainian situation. Now you need to react to Putin and Trump, which at times look like allies. Or maybe not at times.
It turns out that the changing world cannot live according to the old rules. But here a different problem arises: whose new rules will become common, who can keep their rules as the norm? We still have to see this.
Propaganda knows everything, and it is dangerous. Isaac Azimov once remarked: "
And yet do not forget the key postulates of democracy, in which we still live. And the main of them - the people are a source of power. It can sound like a legal norm far from realities, but these are true of our realities:
neither Trump, nor Zelensky, nor Orban with a fitz, nor (scary to recall) Hitler - power was seized by force, they were elected in the elections. Remind whom? Citizens. We want others or want to influence decisions? Then you need to learn to think, distinguish the truth from propaganda, no matter how difficult it may be in the current information squall. We do not want, we cannot think and study? Then we will lead us where those who make decisions want, and we will have to decide whether to cook or not cook sausages for breakfast. And then, while they are still on the shelves.
