RE: My Wartime Diary. Day 50

I see what you mean now, and it is really bad. We raised a generation of people controlled by a button on the TV remote control.

People don't need to think critically, compare facts, use logic and common sense, study history. It's boring and long. It is much easier to eat chewed food.

I first realized how terrible propaganda can be in February 2014. From the large windows of our office, I saw Berkut chasing unarmed people down Instytutska Street in Kyiv. I saw with my own eyes how an armed bastard beat a man on the head with a club. He beat the poor fellow until he fell. And then, a journalist suddenly appeared with a camera. The Berkut man approached the man he had beaten, tried to carefully lift him up and give him water to drink, and journalist was filming. I looked at the one and a half liter bottle of water and what he was doing, and literally could not believe my eyes. I was shocked.

My God!! That is so disgusting, not even owning their own actions! :(
