Welcome to the era of total information warfare. Fake news, demagogy, bots on Twitter and Facebook, hackers and trolls have led to the fact that not a trace of the concepts of “freedom of speech”, “democracy”, as well as of the old ideas about “left” and “right” politics, is gone. Willingly and unwittingly, every day we become carriers and distributors of propaganda. Is there a way out and what can the recent past teach us? Peter Pomerantsev, a journalist and propaganda researcher, set out on a world tour in search of the truth (or what was left of it). He visited the Philippines, Mexico, the US, Russia, the UK, where he met Twitter revolutionaries, online populists, jihadists, bot farmers, and other low-profile people whose actions shape public opinion and our future. "This is not propaganda" - his report from the battlefield for certain reality.
