I think that's the main problem with this particular "war". so much misinformation/disinformation.
I just came back from a lunch with some colleagues at Joe Fortes and had to listen to some coworkers telling me they felt the need to fly back from their vacations in Hawaii and other places in the US once they heard about Russia invading Ukraine, thinking that WW3 was going to start. That absolutely blew my mind.
Both Russia and Ukraine are some of the biggest perpetrators of propaganda and misinformation than anywhere else in the world. It's becoming evident why information from this conflict has been so difficult to decipher or take as fact or fiction. Both sides are waging a war of information and narrative on one another, this makes things EXTREMELY murky at best.
It doesn't help that you also have the US/West also pushing their own agendas and misinformation out there as well, it really just muddles everything coming out right now.
