“Speak to me of summer, long winters, longer than time can remember,
The setting up of other roads to travel on in old accustomed ways.
I still remember the talks by the water, the proud sons and daughters that
Knew the knowledge of the land, that spoke to me in sweet accustomed ways.” - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=886Wxionims
That’s some sci-fi nonsense.
All things are science fiction, haven’t you heard? It’s a battle of metaphors and words.

“If all information is seen as part of a war, out go any dreams of a global information space where ideas flow freely, bolstering deliberative democracy. Instead, the best future one can hope for is an ‘information peace’, in which each side respects the other’s ‘information sovereignty’: a favoured concept of both Beijing and Moscow, and essentially a cover for enforcing censorship.” ― Peter Pomerantsev, This Is Not Propaganda: Adventures in the War Against Reality, 2019

Can you please give me even the slightest hint of what you don’t comprehend and understand?
Do you know Russia is a nation on the planet Earth?
Do you know “Kremlin” is like the “White House” of the Russian government?
Do you know what “Heart and Mind” means in military strategy? “Winning hearts and minds is a concept occasionally expressed in the resolution of war, insurgency, and other conflicts, in which one side seeks to prevail not by the use of superior force, but by making emotional or intellectual appeals to sway supporters of the other side.”
Can we start there?
I’d win for most breweries visited. I’m around 600.
You need to study up on Russian manipulation of your own mind, as you clearly have lost your Heart and Mind to Putin in how you go around on Lemmy attacking Americans who are educating about the Kremlin information warfare against the United States of America. Perhaps you have a Russian agent who has influenced you at one of these 600 breweries?

“Rykov has created a series of websites, similar to Trump2016 ru, or used his Twitter page to post opinions on international politics. He often promotes rightwing political figures; for instance, he has previous promoted the National Front, a French nationalist political party, and its leaders, Jean-Marie Le Pen, and his daughter, Marine Le Pen. Rykov also uses events to draw favorable comparisons to Kremlin policy, such as likening Scotland’s independence movement to Russia’s annexation of Crimea from Ukraine.”
The clergy are failing all of humanity in not calling out the hate patterns in the middle east from all across the world. People need to stop grey-rocking Malala and promote her teachings.

“In his pocket he kept a poem written by Martin Niemöller, who had lived in Nazi Germany. First they came for the communists, and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a communist. Then they came for the socialists, and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a socialist. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn’t speak out because I wasn’t a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I didn’t speak out because I was not a Jew. Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn’t speak out because I was not a Catholic. Then they came for me, and there was no one left to speak for me.” ― Malala Yousafzai, I Am Malala: The Girl Who Stood Up for Education and Was Shot by the Taliban, October 8, 2013
