Title
Testimony 323
Description
A 52-year-old woman from Kharkiv shares the painful story of losing a lifelong friend in Moscow, whose belief in Russian propaganda shattered their bond. The emotional rupture illustrates how disinformation damages not only institutions and media systems but also relationships built on decades of shared trust. This testimony is a reminder that propaganda travels across borders, leaving behind not only misinformed publics but personal casualties. Her account echoes Alison Landsberg’s idea of prosthetic memory, where media shapes how people remember and interpret the world—even at the expense of those closest to them (Landsberg 2004).
