NATO Voodoo — The Paradox of the Self-Fulfilling Prophecy

NATO threat to Ruschia began as a meme. An excuse to murder millions of Ukrainians. And yet without a shot being fired from a NATO gun, Ruschia consigned 400,000 Ruschist soldiers and Wagner Nazis to death. 45 years of Soviet production of materiel is so much air now. Rusting hulks. And for what? Finland and Sweden are in NATO breathing down Ruschists’ neck. Ruschia’s navy’s had to leave Crimea. And its economy permanently destroyed. Nice work NATO. What started out as a lie in Ruschist Disinfolklore has become true. Magic.

The ultimate paradox: the “NATO threat” that was pure Disinfolklore became reality through Russia’s own actions. By invading Ukraine to prevent NATO expansion, Russia caused Finland and Sweden to join NATO — the very thing it claimed to be preventing. The author’s one-word verdict — “Magic” — names the mechanism: sympathetic magic in action, where the representation conjures the reality.
