MYTH 3 – THE #USSR CONSISTENTLY FOUGHT FOR PEACE AND THE #MOLOTOV–#RIBBENTROP PACT WAS A FORCED MOVE 
“The Essence of the #Myth
The policy of the #USSR before the #Second #World #War only included support for world peace and stopping #Hitler’s aggression.
The policy of the #USSR before the #Second #World #War only included support for world peace and stopping #Hitler’s aggression.
Only because of the West’s rejection of #Moscow’s peace proposals was the #Soviet leadership forced to conclude the #Molotov–#Ribbentrop Pact in order to win some time and postpone the beginning of the #war.”

‘Since the early hours, the #Russian #invasion of #Ukraine has spawned a staggering amount of #conspiracy theories. Some point to completely denying the very existence of conflict, arguing that the #dead and #wounded are actually “#actors”;
others try to raise concerns about specific events, such as the #bombing of the #Mariupol #hospital or the #Bucha #massacre; and still others perform a #propaganda function, above all that of the phantom #Ukrainian "#biolaboratories", one of the best known and most widespread.’
Frustrating but important perspective by @PeterHotez:
"The phenomenon of red Covid was not a random occurrence but instead an expected outcome of predation linked to extremist politics"

In this perspective, Dr. Hotez offers some insights on the topics I have been writing & talking about, namely the #weaponization of conspiracy #myths by political actors to attack unwelcome scientific authority in public discourse.
He first outlines the damage: Needless deaths
He first outlines the damage: Needless deaths
How could it have come so far?
For Dr. Hotez, part of that answer lies with anti-science messaging from political elites; how else does one explain the "red covid" phenomenon?
Furthermore, there has been no course correction by political elites. If anything, they doubled down

You've no doubt heard that the Great Library of Alexandria was destroyed in a fire & with it, centuries of knowledge, learning & prose.
But that's not the actual story. The TRUE story of the destruction of the Great #Library of Alexandria has more to teach us than the #myth.

First, the Library itself: commissioned ~280 BCE by Cleopatra's ancestor, Ptolemy I Soter, general to Alexander the Great.
The Library was part of a complex of buildings, the Mouseion, dedicated to the Muses, in the city center/royal quarter.

Ships docking in Alexandria were searched for books, if found, the owner was compensated & a copy made by scribes.
Royal silver purchased entire libraries from the cities of Athens & Nineveh. At its height, it held between 40,000 and 400,000 separate works.

#ReliefWednesday - After yesterday's jaunt into the 'Tabulae Iliacae', here's perhaps the best-known example: the Tabula Iliaca Capitolina, covered with an encyclopaedia of scenes from the Trojan War: ca. 1st Century AD. #Myth #Art (1/3)
Image: Musei Capitolini (inv. MC0316)

The sheer detail in a tablet that's only 25 x 28 cm is staggering! It draws scenes from several texts, including: the 'Iliad'; the 'Iliupersis'; 'Aethiopis'; and 'Little Iliad'. (2/3)

These tablets – some 22 are known – were long dismissed as being intended for “a clientèle unacquainted with Homer himself” (Horsfall, 1979: 34), seen as the type of object appreciated by characters such as Petronius’ Trimalchio. However, more recent work has questioned this.
The designs on this tablet are drawn from Book 10 of Homer’s Odyssey, focussing on the encounter of Odysseus with Circe. Thus, we see Circe’s palace with the key actors meeting. They are clearly named with Greek dipinti.

to emigrate to the #USA, a basically depopulated country, which received some ten million outcasts in just under twenty years.
With the European emigrants came new technologies, new ideas, and a workforce that was abundant, cheap, and willing to do anything. A bargain!!.

The speeches about the capital that millionaires contribute in taxes and how much the poor and the middle class receive from this forced generosity, are a whole literary genre … 🙄 the millionaire factory of #myths 🙄
What's more, this genre is cultivated above all by those from below, as the principle of the genius of propaganda Edward Bernays says: “you should never say that what you want to sell is good, but make others say it”.
That the poor and the workers (oh! excuse the redundancy) defend the rich as kind donors, is the direct result of such a publicity strategy and, as Bernays himself knew, it is not just a massive inoculation but an exploitation of the weaknesses of the consumer, as is the desire
