Since I wrote this essay in early 2019, Russiagate has effectively refuted itself with the failure of Mueller to produce evidence of collusion. Yet the empire’s narrative managers have continued to argue it’s real, because amid the present circumstances, they have no choice. The Ukraine proxy war can only be justified to the Democratic Party’s base via the ideological framework Russiagate established. This framework being that support for Russia, even when Russia is working to destroy the military of a modern Nazi state, is a reactionary stance. If I hadn’t become a Marxist-Leninist in between early 2019 and now, I might have finally become assimilated into that aspect of the psyop. But with a dialectical understanding, I’ve been able to come to the stance of supporting Operation Z, better equipping me to build today’s rising anti-NATO movement.
Excellent essay. Top notch unveiling of a devious propaganda campaign. I remember reading this the first time in 2019, and it has aged very well. Thanks very much for reposting it -- it was thoroughly enjoyable to read it again.
Excellent article. Unfortunately this Russiagate mindset still exists among the so-called left who'd rather support Nazis in Ukraine than Russia's military operation which against US hegemony and imperialist domination.
Utter dogshit. If Ukraine was nazified would 73% of the population have elected a Jewish president? Even if we pretend is was nazified, is that an excuse to invade a sovereign nation? There are Nazis in Florida. Does that mean Mexico would be morally correct if they invaded the U.S. and killed 100,000 people along the California to Texas border? Mueller is a Republican and part of the GOP, an organization that any other country would label enemies of the state; he's not turning on his president. Get your head out of your ass.

For those interested in a deep dive discrediting of Russiagate, I recommend the recently published work by Jeff Gerth in the Columbia Journalism Review: https://www.cjr.org/special_report/trumped-up-press-versus-president-part-1.php
