This Is Not Propaganda: Adventures in the War Against Reality Free Audiobook Download by Peter Pomerantsev

Twenty-four hours is not enough time to spend living in the Kremlin. This book is about a Russian journalist who spent seven years reporting for The Moscow Times and RT (formerly Russia Today) before co-writing with Peter Pomerantsev 'The Kremlin and the Siloviki: Who's Who in Putin's War on Ukraine'. He has written for numerous news outlets, including The Huffington Post, Daily Beast and New York Times Magazine.

The world has been in a state of catastrophic crisis for at least 20 years. We know this because, as Peter Pomerantsev argues in his book This Is Not Propaganda, it is not possible to live with any illusion of normalcy when the global struggle between democracy and authoritarianism has been going on with such ferocity.

The War Against Reality is a book that details Peter Pomerantsev's journey through the world of Russian propaganda. This book follows his experiences in Russia, America, and Europe. It shows what it's like to be an American journalist in Moscow, working for major newspapers and magazines such as The New Yorker and Foreign Affairs. He talks about the major role that technology plays in the spread of propaganda, including how everything from social media to search engines are used by nations to spread their own ideas and create fake news stories.

This is not propaganda because it does not push an agenda, but it is also not a work of fiction. It's a work of truth, a memoir by an author who spent time in the Kremlin, writing for its propaganda machine 'Russia Today.' It is an account of his personal experiences in the Russian state apparatus and tells us of his fascination with what he considers the subterranean world of the Russian state. This book reads like a novel or spy thriller, but it's biography and memoir.

The Russian Revolution of 1917 brought an end to the Tsarist monarchy and to a system that had existed for centuries. The Soviet Union has been in existence since 1919, but it's power was at its zenith during WWII when Russia brought over 20 million soldiers into battle. In 1945, Stalin signed the agreement to help rebuild Germany in exchange for influence over what became known as East Berlin. So powerful was the Soviet Union during this period that Americans believed the Soviet Union to have more than twice as many men under arms than what it actually did, a colossal error in judgment that many people still fail to recognize today.

This Is Not Propaganda is a collection of essays from Peter Pomerantsev as he travels the globe to try and understand how we got to where we are. He comes across stories of corruption, propaganda, and how the Internet has changed our world. Every chapter feels like a blog post you'd read on your phone while walking down the street during your lunch break. It's not long enough to be a book but it's just long enough that you don't want it to end when it does.
