The propaganda war against Russia is so extreme that it appears that the authorities don't care if their misinformation is obvious.
For instance, UK's Express led with this headline: Putin's ruble meltdown.
Since I left off the news in today's weekly watch I wanted to at least throw together a quick look at the proxy war between NATOstan and Russia. I hope you will add news sources you find reliable in the comments below as we all grapple with the end of empire.

We are all related, descended from a common Mother sometimes called Eve. We all share the same mitochondrial DNA. Despite all our differences, we really are a single human family. If only we could view our tribe as being all of humankind, wars might become obsolete, and we all might rest in the bosom of Gaia.

This war without end is criminal. What is abominable is that they do not want to end it. No, they do not want. Do not try to tell me that there was no way to end it. Emperor Charles [Karl I of Austria-Hungary] offered peace; he is the only decent man to have appeared in this war, and he was not listened to. There was, through him, a chance that could have been seized... Clemenceau called the emperor a "rotten conscience," it's ignoble. Emperor Charles sincerely wanted peace, and therefore was despised by the whole world. [...] A king of France, yes a king, would have had pity on our poor, exhausted, bloodlet nation. However democracy is without a heart and without entrails. When serving the powers of money, it is pitiless and inhuman.
