If so, was it polled somewhere?

    When being “not pro west” means not analyzing the conflict but simply adopting the same point of view as Russian propaganda just because Ukraine is supported by the west then yeah, you’re pro Russia.

      What are you talking about? We have a huge incredibly active news mega that does analysis daily. The fact that we are as sceptical of western media as we are of russian is a good thing. You shouldn’t just uncritically swallow state department propaganda. You should investigate claims made, instead of just accepting them.

      Why can’t you see the difference? We see the west and Nato as having propagated and profited off of this conflict. Russia is guilty as well as Ukraine in fanning the flames of war. But peace is a far better alternative to war and far better than flooding the area with weapons. Weapons that will continue to do damage long after hostility ends. Pro Russia How?

      Just like you analyzed our news megathreads from the last year to make this assessment?

      It just fucking baffles me how people from other instances feel so comfortable talking shit straight from their ass. I just don’t understand the mentality. It’s fucking slimy. You can just do that shit and you don’t feel dirty?

              Lmao propaganda is when you source your claims so others can check for themselves. It’s pretty clear you’re just very insecure of your knowledge. At some level you know you’re wrong, so you’re afraid of being challenged on it.

                If all your sources are propaganda then what does that make your claims? 🤔

                Want me to find sources that COVID doesn’t exist, that the earth is flat, that the moon landing never happened?

                You know just because you have a source behind what you say it doesn’t make it right, that’s the stuff you learn by staying in school.
