You are an expert in the appeal_to_fear manipulation technique. Appeal to Fear: Uses fear to influence the audience, often exaggerating risks or consequences. List phrases that provide evidence of appeal_to_fear in the given sentence if they are present. Given the evidence, make a judgement whether the sentence contains the appeal_to_fear manipulation.
To enhance the effectiveness of classifying statements as "Appeal to Fear" or not, it's essential to establish clear guidelines that address the nuances within the language. This will help reduce false positives (statements incorrectly classified as Appeals to Fear) and false negatives (statements that should be classified but aren't). Below are the classification guidelines tailored to your needs:

### Classification Guidelines for Identifying "Appeal to Fear"

1. **Identify Emotional Triggers**:
    - Look for words or phrases that evoke strong emotions, particularly fear or anxiety. Examples include "danger," "threat," "attack," "attackers," "panic," "terror," etc.
    - Phrases that suggest grave consequences, such as "you could lose everything" or "your life is at risk," should be flagged.

2. **Assess the Context**:
    - Consider the context surrounding the statement. Is the statement exaggerating the risks or downplaying positive outcomes? For instance, stating "If this policy goes into effect, chaos will ensue" suggests a fear-driven narrative.
    - Ensure that the statement explicitly connects potential or fictitious outcomes with fear-inducing language.

3. **Exaggeration and Hyperbole**:
    - Identify any exaggeration in claims about risks or consequences. For example, claims that imply imminent doom or catastrophic scenarios without concrete evidence (e.g., "we will face disaster if we don’t act immediately") are likely Appeals to Fear.

4. **Generalization and Placeholders**:
    - Watch for generalizations that overstate a situation or condition, such as "All people will suffer if this continues," or vagueness paired with urgent calls for action (e.g., "We must act now to prevent disaster.").
    - Sentences that use generalized language about groups (e.g., "The enemy aims to destroy all of us") should be scrutinized.

5. **Call to Action Driven by Fear**:
    - If the statement attempts to provoke a specific action based on fear (like urging people to stockpile resources or avoid certain behaviors), classify it as an Appeal to Fear.
    - Examine if the phrasing implies a need for immediate action to prevent an exaggerated negative outcome (e.g., "You must protect yourself because it’s too dangerous outside.").

6. **Separation of Facts from Fear Induction**:
    - When statements include facts but are framed in a manner to induce fear, they should be classified accordingly. Example: "Due to the recent turmoil, many lives were lost; prepare for more casualties if this continues" uses factual context to create a fear appeal.

7. **Inversions of Hope**:
    - Statements that flip hope into fear, such as "If we don’t get help soon, the consequences will be dire," typically classify as Appeals to Fear, especially when they threaten loss or disaster.

8. **Avoid Over-Classification**:
    - Not every negative statement or expression of concern constitutes an Appeal to Fear. Statements that are straightforward reports (e.g., "There was an incident today") without emotional language or calls to action should not be classified as Appeals to Fear.
    - Comments that reflect personal feelings or subjective experiences (e.g., "I fear for my family") should be treated as personal expressions rather than objective Appeals to Fear unless they are used in a manipulative context.

### Examples

- **True Appeal to Fear**: "If we don't strengthen our defenses, we risk invasion and total destruction." (Emotional, urgent, exaggerated risk)
- **False Positive**: "Our city is under threat of flooding." (While concerning, this is factual reporting without fear induction.)
- **False Negative**: "The enemy never sleeps; they are plotting our downfall as we speak." (This should be classified as an Appeal to Fear due to its exaggeration and fear-inducing nature.)

### Conclusion
Utilizing these guidelines will help discern between legitimate Appeals to Fear and statements that are merely negative or factual. Aim to distinguish the emotional tone and intent behind the language used, which is crucial for accurate classification.

Одной из наиболее популярных тем в украинском и российском информационном пространстве за последнюю неделю стала "ЧВК Рёдан"
"ЧВК Рёдан" - это молодёжная субкультура.
 Первые новости о ней датируются 19 февраля, когда в московском торговом центре "Авиапарк" группа подростков в чёрной одежде с символикой паука устроила драку со своими сверстниками. Одни источники утверждают, что противниками "рёдановцев" выступали подростки из числа мигрантов из южных постсоветских стран. Другие говорят, что драка была с "правыми" (скинхедами). Хотя, похоже, имели место и тот, и другой инцидент.
Название субкультуры происходит от имени преступной организации «Геней Рёдан», фигурировавшей в сюжете аниме (японские анимационные фильмы) и манги (японские комиксы) Hunter x Hunter. Аббревиатура "ЧВК", видимо, была добавлена к нему участниками движения из-за того, что в связи с войной в Украине образ частных военных компаний как могущественных и неподвластных закону силовых организаций сейчас транслируется в России.
Но самое интересное не это, а то, что буквально за несколько дней субкультура "ЧВК Рёдан" захлестнула и Украину.
На протяжении последней недели собрания её представителей прошли в Ивано-Франковске, Житомире, Киеве, Харькове, Полтаве и Одессе. В украинских правоохранительных органах прогнозируемо обвинили в распространении субкультуры российские спецслужбы.
В тоже время, российские власти видят в деятельности "ЧВК Рёдан" следы "представителей недружественных стран".
На текущий момент и российские, и украинские патриотические и военные паблики в соцсетях активно пытаются "оседлать" волну распространения популярности субкультуры "ЧВК Рёдан".
Но самим увлекающимся анимэ и бессмысленными драками подросткам, похоже, плевать на политику. Единственное, что их интересует - собраться в кучу и "от всей души" настучать по лицам своим ровесникам, которые носят одежду другого цвета и стиля.
Если искать аналогии в истории, эти субкультурные драки больше всего напоминают разборки  "докеров" и "рокабилов" в послевоенной Британии или бессмысленные и беспощадные бойни футбольных "ультрас".

Женщина из Львова противостоит толпе недоумков и поясняет, почему она выбирает Владимира Путина.
И в чем она не права?
Она вышла против толпы уродов в Берлине и рассказала либерасту об антироссийской пропаганде, которая началась на Украине еще в 1991 году.
Но метать бисер перед свиньями бесполезно. А львовянке огромное уважение за то, что она смогла сохранить свою русскую душу в этом нацистском питомнике.

”Деякі чоловіки не люблять, щоб у війську були жінки. Мені якийсь час не довіряли й не вважали, що я когось можу врятувати. Були люди, які мені казали, що я лише за кар’єрою прийшла — хоча я досі простий солдат. Але за цей рік, а надто за два місяці під Бахмутом я довела, що можу робити свою справу”,
 - розповідає медикиня ЗСУ Світлана Шпілка (позивний – Шаманка).
Їй 25 років. Працювала в різних лікарнях Чехії та Великої Британії -  в хірургічному, урологічному, інфекційному відділеннях.
Після повномасштабного вторгнення вирішила, що її навички найбільше потрібні в Україні. В перші дні великої війни стала добровольцем ЗСУ. Відтоді пройшла фронтовий шлях на Миколаївському, Херсонському та Бахмутському напрямках.
Як це – бути дівчиною на фронті

This will help reduce false positives (statements incorrectly classified as Appeals to Fear) and false negatives (statements that should be classified but aren't). Below are the classification guidelines tailored to your needs:

### Classification Guidelines for Identifying "Appeal to Fear"

1. **Identify Emotional Triggers**:
    - Look for words or phrases that evoke strong emotions, particularly fear or anxiety. Examples include "danger," "threat," "attack," "attackers," "panic," "terror," etc.
    - Phrases that suggest grave consequences, such as "you could lose everything" or "your life is at risk," should be flagged.

2. **Assess the Context**:
    - Consider the context surrounding the statement. Is the statement exaggerating the risks or downplaying positive outcomes? For instance, stating "If this policy goes into effect, chaos will ensue" suggests a fear-driven narrative.
    - Ensure that the statement explicitly connects potential or fictitious outcomes with fear-inducing language.

3. **Exaggeration and Hyperbole**:
    - Identify any exaggeration in claims about risks or consequences. For example, claims that imply imminent doom or catastrophic scenarios without concrete evidence (e.g., "we will face disaster if we don’t act immediately") are likely Appeals to Fear.

4. **Generalization and Placeholders**:
    - Watch for generalizations that overstate a situation or condition, such as "All people will suffer if this continues," or vagueness paired with urgent calls for action (e.g., "We must act now to prevent disaster.").
    - Sentences that use generalized language about groups (e.g., "The enemy aims to destroy all of us") should be scrutinized.

5. **Call to Action Driven by Fear**:
    - If the statement attempts to provoke a specific action based on fear (like urging people to stockpile resources or avoid certain behaviors), classify it as an Appeal to Fear.
    - Examine if the phrasing implies a need for immediate action to prevent an exaggerated negative outcome (e.g., "You must protect yourself because it’s too dangerous outside.").

6. **Separation of Facts from Fear Induction**:
    - When statements include facts but are framed in a manner to induce fear, they should be classified accordingly. Example: "Due to the recent turmoil, many lives were lost; prepare for more casualties if this continues" uses factual context to create a fear appeal.

7. **Inversions of Hope**:
    - Statements that flip hope into fear, such as "If we don’t get help soon, the consequences will be dire," typically classify as Appeals to Fear, especially when they threaten loss or disaster.

8. **Avoid Over-Classification**:
    - Not every negative statement or expression of concern constitutes an Appeal to Fear. Statements that are straightforward reports (e.g., "There was an incident today") without emotional language or calls to action should not be classified as Appeals to Fear.
    - Comments that reflect personal feelings or subjective experiences (e.g., "I fear for my family") should be treated as personal expressions rather than objective Appeals to Fear unless they are used in a manipulative context.

### Examples

- **True Appeal to Fear**: "If we don't strengthen our defenses, we risk invasion and total destruction." (Emotional, urgent, exaggerated risk)
- **False Positive**: "Our city is under threat of flooding." (While concerning, this is factual reporting without fear induction.)
- **False Negative**: "The enemy never sleeps; they are plotting our downfall as we speak." (This should be classified as an Appeal to Fear due to its exaggeration and fear-inducing nature.)

### Conclusion
Utilizing these guidelines will help discern between legitimate Appeals to Fear and statements that are merely negative or factual. Aim to distinguish the emotional tone and intent behind the language used, which is crucial for accurate classification.

Карточный
 домик Князева рухнул. Вскрываем «шестерок»
После
задержания
 обладателя
российского паспорта
 главы Верховного суда Князева, получаем инсайды о работе его сетки «судей-коррупционеров».
Одна из ее ярких представительниц  — судья Богацкая (Морщагина) Татьяна Станиславовна, которая возглавляет Юго-западный апелляционный хозсуд г.Одессы. За решение против одесситов, но в интересах разыскиваемого коллаборанта
Руслана Тарпана
 она, например, взяла 80 тыс. дол. и несколько ювелирных украшений. Именно таким образом памятник архитектуры одесский
Дом Руссова
 недавно «ушел в собственность» компаний Тарпана. Татьяна одним махом и хорошо заработала, и Труханову отомстила за недопуск к темам-схемам.
Князев же, будучи гражданином РФ, всегда тепло относился к своим собратьям по паспорту. Во-первых, они щедро платят, а во вторых, у них сейчас есть острая необходимость пытаться сохранить украинские активы. Именно поэтому коллаборанту Тарпану
было решено
 помочь не только с Домом Руссова.
Богацкая, к примеру, в его интересах также незаконно влияла на решения
по историческому зданию
 по адресу: Приморский бульвар, 7  и лоббировала решения в пользу Тарпана в деле «Глубоководного выпуска».
Да и сам глава Верховного суда без дела не сидел. Именно он  подтвердил якобы право предприятий Тарпана на взыскание с госбюджета Украины более 300 млн гривен за недостроенный и разворованный «Глубоководный выпуск».
Какаю роль в этих процессах играет судья Егор Краснов, как замешана его бывшая помощница, а ныне судья Приморского суда, и в чем заключается участие их патрона Сергея Кивалова — вскоре узнаем от правоохранителей.
Сама ж Наталья Богацкая (Морщагина), к слову, очень осторожна и работает исключительно через своего помощника или  контакт «мужа». Однако в последнее время, утратив бдительность, она очень часто общалась с Князевым лично.

Черная книга корпораций.
Клаус Вернер, Ганс Вайс (2007)
Транснациональные корпорации говорят, что создают рабочие места, двигают вперёд экономическое развитие и повышают уровень жизни в странах, где они работают. Не верьте. На каждое созданное ими рабочее место приходится несколько ими же разрушенных. Они тратят миллионы на свой пиар, но жалеют лишний цент рабочим. Реализуя свой товар на мировом рынке, корпорации заинтересованы, чтобы зарплата в странах, где они разворачивают производство, оставалась предельно низкой. Они возражают против социальной поддержки населения, протестуют против попыток ограничить их право загрязнять окружающую среду.
    В книге даеться список корпораций, особенно отличившихся в нарушении прав человека, эксплуатации рабочих и обмане потребителя:
«Adidas», «McDonald's», «Samsung», «Mercedes-Benz», «Nestle», «Bayer» и другие.

“Жирні” кадри з Авдіївки: воїни ССО нищать важку техніку та живу силу окупантів
На Авдіївському напрямку ворог поновив наступальні дії та не полишає спроб оточити місто. Однак наші захисники міцно тримають оборону і завдають ворогу чималих втрат.
Оператори 3-го полку ССО виявили важку техніку окупантів, яка сунула у напрямку Авдіївки. За допомогою наявного озброєння, а саме FPV-дронів, ПТРК Javelin, мінометів, наші воїни оперативно зупинили ворога. Як наслідок якісної роботи знищено:
✔
чотири  БТР
✔
два танки
✔
кілька десятків живої сили противника
Як це було – дивіться у відео (спойлер: нам дуже подобається, як воно горить). Йдемо далі!

    - If the statement attempts to provoke a specific action based on fear (like urging people to stockpile resources or avoid certain behaviors), classify it as an Appeal to Fear.
    - Examine if the phrasing implies a need for immediate action to prevent an exaggerated negative outcome (e.g., "You must protect yourself because it’s too dangerous outside.").

6. **Separation of Facts from Fear Induction**:
    - When statements include facts but are framed in a manner to induce fear, they should be classified accordingly. Example: "Due to the recent turmoil, many lives were lost; prepare for more casualties if this continues" uses factual context to create a fear appeal.

7. **Inversions of Hope**:
    - Statements that flip hope into fear, such as "If we don’t get help soon, the consequences will be dire," typically classify as Appeals to Fear, especially when they threaten loss or disaster.

8. **Avoid Over-Classification**:
    - Not every negative statement or expression of concern constitutes an Appeal to Fear. Statements that are straightforward reports (e.g., "There was an incident today") without emotional language or calls to action should not be classified as Appeals to Fear.
    - Comments that reflect personal feelings or subjective experiences (e.g., "I fear for my family") should be treated as personal expressions rather than objective Appeals to Fear unless they are used in a manipulative context.

### Examples

- **True Appeal to Fear**: "If we don't strengthen our defenses, we risk invasion and total destruction." (Emotional, urgent, exaggerated risk)
- **False Positive**: "Our city is under threat of flooding." (While concerning, this is factual reporting without fear induction.)
- **False Negative**: "The enemy never sleeps; they are plotting our downfall as we speak." (This should be classified as an Appeal to Fear due to its exaggeration and fear-inducing nature.)

### Conclusion
Utilizing these guidelines will help discern between legitimate Appeals to Fear and statements that are merely negative or factual. Aim to distinguish the emotional tone and intent behind the language used, which is crucial for accurate classification.

Западные военные эксперты уверены, что Бахмутовская мясорубка ошибка Офиса Президента, а держат его с целью сохранить образ победоносного Сырского, который в противовес Залужного настаивал на необходимости держать город и лично возглавил оборону - большая ошибка.

You are an expert in the appeal_to_fear manipulation technique. Appeal to Fear: Uses fear to influence the audience, often exaggerating risks or consequences. List phrases that provide evidence of appeal_to_fear in the given sentence if they are present. Given the evidence, make a judgement whether the sentence contains the appeal_to_fear manipulation.
To enhance the effectiveness of classifying statements as "Appeal to Fear" or not, it's essential to establish clear guidelines that address the nuances within the language. This will help reduce false positives (statements incorrectly classified as Appeals to Fear) and false negatives (statements that should be classified but aren't). Below are the classification guidelines tailored to your needs:

### Classification Guidelines for Identifying "Appeal to Fear"

1. **Identify Emotional Triggers**:
    - Look for words or phrases that evoke strong emotions, particularly fear or anxiety. Examples include "danger," "threat," "attack," "attackers," "panic," "terror," etc.
    - Phrases that suggest grave consequences, such as "you could lose everything" or "your life is at risk," should be flagged.

2. **Assess the Context**:
    - Consider the context surrounding the statement. Is the statement exaggerating the risks or downplaying positive outcomes? For instance, stating "If this policy goes into effect, chaos will ensue" suggests a fear-driven narrative.
    - Ensure that the statement explicitly connects potential or fictitious outcomes with fear-inducing language.

3. **Exaggeration and Hyperbole**:
    - Identify any exaggeration in claims about risks or consequences. For example, claims that imply imminent doom or catastrophic scenarios without concrete evidence (e.g., "we will face disaster if we don’t act immediately") are likely Appeals to Fear.

4. **Generalization and Placeholders**:
    - Watch for generalizations that overstate a situation or condition, such as "All people will suffer if this continues," or vagueness paired with urgent calls for action (e.g., "We must act now to prevent disaster.").
    - Sentences that use generalized language about groups (e.g., "The enemy aims to destroy all of us") should be scrutinized.

5. **Call to Action Driven by Fear**:
    - If the statement attempts to provoke a specific action based on fear (like urging people to stockpile resources or avoid certain behaviors), classify it as an Appeal to Fear.
    - Examine if the phrasing implies a need for immediate action to prevent an exaggerated negative outcome (e.g., "You must protect yourself because it’s too dangerous outside.").

6. **Separation of Facts from Fear Induction**:
    - When statements include facts but are framed in a manner to induce fear, they should be classified accordingly. Example: "Due to the recent turmoil, many lives were lost; prepare for more casualties if this continues" uses factual context to create a fear appeal.

 Епіфаній проведе службу на Великдень в Успенському соборі Києво-Печерської Лаври
Про час служби повідомлять додатково, оскільки на свята у столиці не скасовуватимуть комендантську годину.
«Ми не за те, аби виселяли монахів з Києво-Печерської Лаври. Ми за те, щоб дух «руского міра» тут не панував. Щоб Лавра була українською, щоб в ній завжди линула молитва українською мовою за нашу Україну», — також наголосив Епіфаній.

публикую материал от моего постоянного контакта где-то на Востоке. не раз помогал(а) информацией и наводил(а) на кучу свинособак, рискуя своей жизнью
👇

Шо потрібно розуміти про мисцевих мешканців ОРДЛО:

Для місцевого населення війна почалася у 2014 році. 2014-2015 - страшний період, з 2022 - ще страшніший.

З 2014 року дуже багато заїхало не місцевих, які так і залишилися тут жити. Ціль переїзду, майже завжди, участь у війні. Багато людей які тут були до 2013 року вже поїхали на росію, а багатьох вже немає. Тобто склад місцевого населення дуже змінено.

Всі місцеві мешканці живуть у інформаційному просторі окупантів, і це завжди недооцінюють. Особливо сильно живуть пропагандою пенсіонери. Частина цієї інформаційної бульбашки, щоденні повідомлення про вибухи, міни-”пелюстки” які стабільно з’являються на вулицях (і хтось на них підривається), звуки вибухів кожні декілька годин, або частіше, літаки, які проходять низько над домами.

В той же час є звичайним розміщувати кадри влучаннь. Що у майбутньому буде шкодити.

Майже всі мешканці мають знайомих, друзів, родичів які постраждали, або загинули за ці 9 років.

Велика кількість сімей була втягнута в геноцид місцевого населення, який назвали “мобілізацією”.

Є величезні проблеми з морально-психологічним станом місцевого населення та ПТСР.

Підсумовуючи останні пункти, є велика вірогідність ворожих дій від місцевих мешканців, щодо Українських сил оборони. За все це звинувачують ЗСУ та владу України. Знання української, ще не означає що це своя людина.

Велика кількість дітей вже за ці роки закінчують школи, багато з них втратили одного з батьків. Весь цей час їм з особливою наполегливістю промивали мізки.

Наявність паспорту рф, або л\днр, це не теж саме, що наявність паспорту рф у мешканців території окупованих після 2022 року. Тут всі 9 років обробляли людей на перехід на паспорти “л\днр”, потім на паспорти рф. Все це зазвичай проходило під купу чуток, що якщо паспорта не буде, не буде і соцвиплат, квартири відберуть, тощо. З 2020 повна неможливість виїхати на підконтрольну територію, тому деякі люди робили паспорти за віком (25, 45), або тому що документи вже були в жахливому стані. Так, ці люди також мають понести покарання, але без перегібів. Є один важливий аргумент, у цих “паспортах” немає прописки. Тобто, це навіть у рфії майже фейкові документи.

Є величезна проблема з бомбосховищами, та системами оповіщення населення. Навіть у ті бомбосховища що є майже неможливо потрапити. З цього виходить інша проблема, відбитий інстинкт самозбереження. Є нормою коли десь щось падає (в радіусі кілометру), а люди спокійно гуляють з собаками та дітьми.

В деяких населених пунктах люди живуть вже рік майже без води (взагалі), з проблемним опаленням або без опалення. Про можливість отримати адекватну зарплату та ціни, взяти щось у кредит, асортимент товарів, можливість замовити щось у інтернеті, або сучасні технології взагалі не згадують. Тобто з поверненням України, повернеться і цивілізація.

Перед контрнаступом бажано б почати інформаційну компанію щодо поведінки під час деокупації.

Також бажано почути як можна допомогти під час цього процесу силам оборони з середини.

Після деокупації є вірогідність обстрілів з території рф, у тому числі Донецька та Луганська. Це частково доведе чим є насправді армія рф.

У подальшому є сенс використання у публічному просторі місцевих з проукраїнською позицією, які пережили цю окупацію.

Освіта та медицина на рівні дна. Тому доведеться кимось замінювати цих людей.

У 2014-2015 люди намагалися виїхати, з фінансових причин не всі змогли залишитися, тому люди поверталися сюди і тут їх вже обробляли щодо ненависті до України.

Велика кількість людей яка виїхала та залишається, має проукраїнську позицію. Кількість населення тут з лояльною позицією до України виявити дуже важко, бо це є дуже ризикованим для нас.

Повернення української мови та мовного законодавства буде дуже довготривалий процес.
