@sumlenny even if it's just exactly the accident local media reported it to have been before they were made to walk that back - the way RU handled COVID as well as the FMD outbreak in - surprise - Siberia almost exactly a year ago does NOT bode well for containment.
@Strien9 Der hat sich angeguckt wer genau sich da rechtmäßig gegen eine gewaltsame Unterjochung durch "Asiatische Horden" verteidigt und ist übergelaufen zu den Ukrainern...
@Tatarigami_UA travel between Germany& Russia is well ongoing in the so called "Russian German"/Spätaussiedler segment of the German population, has been since 2022. Both directions. They bitch and moan that it's gotten harder and taking longer, but the visits to and from RU continue unabated
@TimothyDSnyder After he dug up Dima Donskoy, mutilated the poor sod's remains, forced him to defect to the side with the rightous cause (those defending AGAINST a predatory invading Horde from the [North]East), to boot.
Could this be the Revenge of the Grand Prince of Moscow and Vladimir?

perfiden worst case Überlegungen wie opportunistischer Ausnutzung eines zufällig entstandenen nationalen Problems um das zunehmend desolate Kriegsglück beeinflussen zu wollen - der Grundgedanke wäre global-historisch gesehen nicht neu und diesem Regime absolut zuzutrauen.

viel war gaslighting der eigenen Bevölkerung plus Apparat durch alle Organe hinweg bis zu Vertuschung/Umdeklarierung Kranker und Toter. Und der Umgang mit dem MKS-Ausbruch in Sibirien vor nahezu 1 Jahr war kurz gesagt dasselbe in Grün.
Und dann sind wir noch nicht mal bei so
@RealJakeBroe The paragons of Traditional Values and True Christianity managed to not just lose their saint(s relics) but also get a pneumonic plague outbreak. They should take the fucking hint and reconsider their whole farcical "We are Russian, God is with us!" postulate.
@Demoguardian Das genug andere Leser das sehen, denken sie sind in der Minderheit und sich mindestens mundtot machen lassen, wenn nicht sogar auf deren Argumentationslinie umzuschwenken um dem Druck zu entgehen, einer vermeintlichen Outgroup anzugehören. So weit so bewährte RU disinfo eben.

also not a uniquely FR thing of course (though among the stronger nation-perspective biases i.t. West) almost all countries have it to varying degrees. GER is the outlier here with our own narrative twice broken in the 20th centuryleading to an extreme level of introspection.
@NitnelavGS@Mylovanov 5/
ot out of malice, but because of the fact that context is limited& alternate interpretations often don't feature,& the natural inclination defaults towards nationalist/patriotic reading of the topic because that's what's taught from within the own family& though all education
@EiWasDann@stichhalbierer@realLangerDan Bützfleth is so tiny, this can be no other than "Dow Deutschland Anlagengesellschaft mbH", subsidiary of the US chemical megacorp Dow Chemical (2nd largest chemical conglomerate in the word as DowDuPont) at Bützflether Sand 9, 21683 Stade-Bützfleth.
@miner_tech_bro@jimsciutto@Alyssafarah they sure as heck are still doing a lot of traveling though: Turkey, Vietnam, a ton of other holiday locations in SE-Asia, not to mention all the 'stans. The very rich set still make it to especially FR (also IT& ES) and "Russia-Germans" visit back and forth like there's no war.

But I haven't found this exact progression: increasing reliance on self-reference to stabilize X, followed by failure to return from SELF to X.
Is there an established neurological/neuropsychological phenomenon or literature I should be looking at, or am I actually way off?
@OurShallowState 20/21
A quick literature search found neighboring ideas:
self-reference effects, self/other distinction, egocentric bias, perspective-taking and referential-communication deficits, set-shifting/executive impairment in bvFTD, and premorbid personality shaping dementia phenotype.
