About Disinfolklore

I first noticed the Disinfolklore Universe now spreading through our neural networks, like triffids rewilding the garden of Eden, when it was in a more primitive form. In 2016, I was a diplomat posted to eastern Ukraine. Russia’s army, cosplaying as Little Green Men, Polite Folk and Odin-worshipping soldiers from the Nazi-inspired “Wagner” corps, had occupied part of Ukraine in 2014.

Working in that Steppe-land, I realised that I perceived part of reality through cognitive lenses — archetypes — that had entered my mind as a small child from folktale-inspired stories. Russian Disinfolklorists were leaning into this aspect of Indo-Europeans’ cognition and riffing off what Karl Jung suggested are primordial archetypal identities.

This framework is to help you learn the tools I use as a professional Disinfolklore identifier and interpreter. So that you learn to counteract the Disinfolklore Universe descending upon humanity, like a curse.
