How Disinfolklore Becomes Reality
Triggering and creating folk memories. Disinfolklore becomes reality through repetition amplification and wishful thinking. It’s a lie yet is believed in more that ‘what is.’ Truth. What is not illusory. Like Disinfolklore painting Ultra violent invaders as Little Green Men provoking idea of Ukraine as a condescended to land of ‘little people’ and ‘Little Folk.’ Then, because we encounter folklore mainly as children, we associate such stories with being children. This disarms us.

Russia, like any grievance-mining gaslighting wifebeater, also blamed its victim Ukraine for the consequences of Russia’s own law breaking. In promoting the troll that someone else was responsible for the choices Russia made to continue its unlawful and violent occupation of Ukraine’s land, Russia were executing one of its main objectives in Ukraine: the creation and entrenchment of physical and mental separation between previously united Ukrainians either side of the Donets.

Disinfolklore’s lies do not remain lies. Through repetition, amplification, and wishful thinking, they “become reality.” “Little Green Men” were not little or green — they were Russian soldiers committing armed aggression. But the diminutive folklore framing disarmed us. The Ethical Discipline test catches this: is the description true? No. Then it is Disinfolklore, regardless of how many people believe it.
