I’m cancelling my long-standing subscription to The Nation because it has become a shameless mouthpiece for Putinoid propaganda. Every week the magazine publishes some idiotic piece on Ukraine but this week things have turned even worse. An article by Stephen F. Cohen, an idiot I have already ridiculed on this blog in the past, has decided to excrete some more lunacy and The Nation chose to accommodate him.
Cohen is still sad that the USSR fell apart and is now enthusiastically supporting Putin’s plan to bring it into existence. Of course, he is entitled to his lunacy, just like everybody else is, but I’m shocked that The Nation will publish a piece that makes outlandish claims and doesn’t offer a shred of proof.
In his article, Cohen parrots every one of the favorite propaganda point of his beloved Putinoids. Ukraine is not a real country, the Maidan was an uprising of neo-Nazi street thugs, Putin is a kind, avuncular victim of the West’s tragedy. In short, everything that Putin’s propaganda machine has been hoping the more brain-damaged among the Westerners will swallow. It’s sad that the brain-damaged have taken over what used to be a good magazine.
