(Steve Watson) Uses memes to hammer home that the legacy media is a laughing stock.
Related Information Warfare–Russia to Invade Ukraine is a Manufactured Lie
by Steve Watson, February 17th, 2022
After the establishment media hyped up and predicted a Russian invasion of Ukraine for this past Wednesday that didn’t happen, the Russian government took to Twitter to mock them.
Much of the U.S. and western media ran with dire warnings of an invasion based on Ukrainian intelligence imparted by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
The media claimed that 200,000 Russian troops would march into Ukraine and a ‘missile blitz’ would ensue.
However, in reality Russia withdrew troops and weaponry after the end of training exercises.
Russia’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs tweeted comments made by spokeswoman Maria Zakharova, who said, “Today we mark another day of the ‘start of war with Ukraine,’ which did not happen again, to the Western media outlets’ regret, no matter how hard they whip up the hysteria.”
The tweet was accompanied with a video of tumbleweeds:
💬 #Zakharova: Today we mark another day of the “start of war with Ukraine,” which did not happen again, to the Western media outlets’ regret, no matter how hard they whip up the hysteria.

In another tweet, the Russian MFA used a John Travolta meme to hammer home the point:

For weeks, sections of the media also attacked those who accused them of hysteria as ‘amplifying Russian propaganda’.
This is exactly why the legacy media that constantly whines about ‘misinformation’ and needing to ‘fact check’ everything is now completely devoid of any credibility.

Stillness in the Storm Editor: Why did we post this?
The news is important to all people because it is where we come to know new things about the world, which leads to the development of more life goals that lead to life wisdom. The news also serves as a social connection tool, as we tend to relate to those who know about and believe the things we do. With the power of an open truth-seeking mind in hand, the individual can grow wise and the collective can prosper.
