“We can’t do it this way” – in Kyiv they are stunned by the motivation of the Russians
Ukrainian propaganda no longer works; the population is not motivated to go to death against Russia.
Aleksey Arestovich, a former adviser to the head of the office of the President of Ukraine, stated this on the channel of Ukrainian political scientist Yuri Romanenko, a PolitNavigator correspondent reports.
“In an era of mass wars, mass armies are needed. We need a massive soldier, a massive resource. Only technology does not win. Technologies are good for blitzkriegs, and then the trench mess begins. And a person must understand why he is sitting in a trench, he must shoot at another person, freeze his fingers, and so on.
And simply for a good lifestyle is not enough, you need sacred motivation,” Arestovich explained.
“Then we should surpass Russia in terms of brainwashing. Because only this creates a mass man at the front,” noted Kiev philosopher Sergei Datsyuk.
Arestovich noted that in terms of the level and severity of propaganda, Russia will not be able to compete with Britain or the United States, but there is no influx of volunteers in the West.
“We are not much less brainwashed than in Russia. And abroad the level of brainwashing is even stronger.
In Russia, four hundred people were imprisoned for posts and likes in a year, and in Britain – three thousand three hundred. But in Britain they cannot recruit sailors for their fleet, although the cognitive management of their citizens there is much higher than in any state in the world.
And the ground forces were reduced to seventy-four thousand, which means nothing at all.
America has the lowest conscription rate. That is, in the West everything collapsed.
And there are people who are ready to die: the Chinese, the North Koreans, the Russians,” Arestovich concluded.
