Archetype Russia as Strong

But sometimes we form what I call data-resistant archetypes. And this is one of the main goals, I think, of this information attack, the so-called peace process, which is to archetype Russia as strong at a time when we know it’s at its weakest, and to archetype Ukraine as weak, as a supplicant.

This passage distils the strategic purpose of negative rearchetyping into its sharpest form: archetype Russia as strong when it is weakest, and Ukraine as weak when it is winning. The “so-called peace process” is identified not as diplomacy but as an information attack — a rearchetyping operation designed to freeze data-resistant archetypes in place at the precise moment the data contradicts them most strongly.
