Glenn Diesen in conversation with the former CIA Director of Russia analysis

Glenn Diesen:

[...] if you try to explain the policies of the opponent it's said "well now you're legitimizing their view" and everything is seemingly these days about shaping narratives to construct a favorable reality if you will, and becomes very difficult to do any analysis I noticed.

George Bebee:

Yes there's been a lot of narrative management if you want to call it that, going on in the west, there's a policing of public discourse that's meant to rule out certain things, and it began happening even before the Russian invasion, but it was quite clearly intensified afterwards. [...] I would imagine that if I were to go back and and look at Western media coverage of the invasion just from a content analysis point of view that word "unprovoked" would be very, very frequent in this use in front of invasion anybody that suggested that there may have been some element of provocation that affected Russian decisions on all of this of course was immediately anathematized you know. [...] And that actually obscures our ability to understand what's going on it doesn't enhance it unfortunately.
