“…because symbols of totalitarianism cannot breathe the same air as democracy. They simply don’t fit in the same room.” https://lithub.com/why-we-should-read-about-the-soviet-past-in-order-to-understand-ukraine-now/

Russia's war strategy is primarily that of a war over information.

Russia has gone to great lengths to control information, in who has access to it, and how it is able to get out.

In the failure of the russian military to achieve any significant tangible progress to achieve its war goals, the war goals themselves have shifted.

The goal is no longer to actually achieve victory, but instead to suppress access to information in areas under their control to such a degree that they can claim that they have achieved a victory, and there will be not enough information flow in either direction, either in or out, for anyone to prove otherwise.

The game has shifted, and it's extremely important to recognize what that means for the efforts against russia.

Putin has begun a process of strangling the information flow into and out of the contested areas, and russia itself. If he succeeds, he will also succeed in his most vital objective: being able to conduct his genocide without awareness or intervention from the wider world.

From putin's perspective, the cause of his losses so far are because it has been too easy for the truth about what is happening to be disseminated. To succeed, it is vitally important that putin ensures that there is no source of information other than that which he approves, which is able to be reached by those who are within his sphere of influence.

If putin succeeds in this, there will be significant consequences for europe and the world.

If putin succeeds in strangling the information networks in Ukraine, he will be one step closer to actually getting away with his crimes against humanity.

Now more than ever, the free flow of information is vital to the freedom of those subject to the worst atrocities.

The free flow of information isn't just vital to the survival of the people of ukraine for them to talk to each other, but because their survival up to this point has been primarily thanks to their ability to get the truth of the war out into the world.

Humans have a short attention span. If the news isn't happening in our faces, we forget about it.

Putin wants the world to forget about the atrocities he is actively committing against the people of ukraine, just like the atrocities of the United States in the myriad of countries it has invaded and occupied have slowly been forgotten even as they continue to be perpetrated.

Now more than ever, it is vital to ensure that the free flow of information continues to be maintained, supported, and defended, not just in russia and Ukraine, but throughout the world, and anywhere people are subjected to exploitation, abuse, and atrocities.
