We live in a world where propaganda is everywhere. What does it matter who has the most victims if the sources are manipulated by both sides? The Nazis were broadcasting proclamations of victory by radio thanks to new secret weapons ready to annihilate the enemies… while the Russians were at the gates of Berlin.
There is propaganda in peacetime, let alone in wartime. Does anyone remember Iraq’s overwhelming evidence that it had weapons of mass destruction? Well, 10 years later it officially turned out that it was all a hoax to convince the US government and allies to unleash the war against Saddam and seize the oil wells. The counting of the dead only serves to make people of different factions clash and divert from the daily problems of all of us, problems that governments do not solve, instead throwing mountains of money into weapons (money to the weapon producers=money from the weapon lobby for the electoral campaigns)
Fake news
A thought provoking rebuttal, thank you.
