Explaining the Greek paradox

Anti-austerity in the referendum, euro-currency and austerity in the national elections

While the mainstream media propaganda did everything to make people vote for the new catastrophic measures, the result was clearly against these measures. People said 'NO' to the catastrophic austerity.

However, the propaganda seemed to be effective to a certain degree, concerning specific people. From a point and after, the media concentrated not to SYRIZA as a whole, but to the 'systemic threats' like Panagiotis Lafazanis, Zoe Konstantopoulou, Yanis Varoufakis and Costas Lapavitsas. Many of them joined Popular Unity later.

Generally, the media tried to "decompose" these people to the voters, as being totally unreliable, or, even having specific "behavioural" problems in some cases. All the "parades" of these people to the mainstream media had only such a purpose. It is something that the US media are doing right now, more or less, with Bernie Sanders, probably through a more sophisticated way.
