The Magnitsky Act & Narrative Control
Andrei Nekrasov, Alexander Mercouris & Glenn Diesen
I had a conversation with Alexander Mercouris and Andrei Nekrasov - a renowned film director who made a documentary about the Magnitsky Act. Nekrasov is known for making documentaries that are very critical of the Kremlin, and he received funding in the West to make a documentary about the death of Sergey Magnitsky. The story about a ruthless Russian government that killed a whistle-blower was a perfect story for a Western audience that is consistently fed stories about international politics as a struggle between good and evil. The narrative of Magnitsky also laid the foundation for the Magnitsky Act in 2012, a set of anti-Russian sanctions that contributed to derailing relations between the West and Russia. However, when making the film, Nekrasov discovered that the story being pushed was full of lies. Nekrasov focused on the facts rather than the narrative, and the documentary was subsequently censored and banned across the West. The Magnitsky Act was a precursor to the Russiagate hoax and demonstrated how narrative control has become a key part of power politics.
Glenn Diesen, thank you! I'm halfway through this gripping documentary on rumble
And I found Krainer's book, there's also a PDF download,

Hello M. Diesen, a couple of points regarding this interesting interview with Mr. Nekrasov:
1. an excellent book about Bowder is Alex Krainer's book (censored) : Grand Deception: The Browder Hoax . It tells the whole story of Browder in Russia.
2: Alexander talked about Pontecorvo's "La Bataille d'Alger" ; it was not censored officially, but it was not shown almost at all! It was simply impossible to see it, and we can all understand orders from above had been given to this effect. Some info here (French):
