A ‘propaganda system will consistently portray people abused by enemy states as worthy victims, whereas those treated with equal or greater severity by its own government or clients will be unworthy.’
Similarly, think of Palestinians vs. Israelis, black and brown refugees vs. Ukrainian refugees, minorities in Syria vs. Syrians, an Iranian woman killed by the Iranian regime vs. women and children killed by Israel or the US.
‘How can exposing crime and torture be worse than committing them?’
