A very good #DW documentary I found in a post by @John Hummel.

But I can tell you, it made me really sad ...

It covers the #installation of #Putin's #fascist system in #Russia.

As a German who has studied the history of our country, I see parallels to Hitler's career, his rise, and his way of deceiving and deluding the masses ...

But see for yourself ..:

Russia: Putin’s propaganda machine - Manipulating the people | DW Documentary

On 24 February 2022, Russia invaded #Ukraine. Many Russians supported the move at the time. Others silently rejected what was described as a #special operation, which Putin claimed would #de-Nazify a former #sister nation.

*Years of #indoctrination and #propaganda, a #single-party rule that #muzzles the #media - this film #investigates how Russians under Putin have #fallen silent, and why no one has pulled the #political ripcord.

Although the international community continues to be horrified by this #brutal, #anachronistic #war in the heart of Europe, most Russians back Putin’s "special operation”. The film is an unprecedented #journey into the heart of a #brainwashed, #intimidated society and an #in-depth investigation into the #inner workings of Russia’s #repressive machine.
