If hundreds of millions of Americans and Europeans knew what was actually going on, they’d certainly be against the policies their unelected bureaucratic oligarchies are imposing, both at home and abroad. Precisely this is why knowing the truth is all the more important. Unfortunately, it can indeed be dangerous to think and speak freely at this time, and we can only expect more censorship and more “thought criminals”, as any deviation from the official narrative is “dangerous for our democracy”.

    The difference between journalism and propaganda to you is whether a western source is saying it or a country which is no longer controlled by the western financial apparatus

    What makes you think this?

    I haven’t been trained to question, that’s true. I learned. You only learned to be scared apparently, and you’re currently in training to dismiss facts altogether. I suggest you drop out of that curriculum

      Mister Potatoes I suggest you unlearn your tendency to label articles that point out glaring contradictions and omissions in Western narratives “unjournalistic propaganda” before deploying this kind of language about how open minded and educated you are

        Your post got rained in downvotes despite being posted on lemmy.ml. Clearly I’m not the only one who can tell this is trash

          You expect me to take internet points and alt accounts complaining about everything that doesn’t agree with the state department narrative seriously! I appreciate you admitting it! Now, let’s see if you can attack a single point raised in one single article that I post instead of whining about how nobody should disagree with liberal dogma. I highly doubt it.

          Every downvote I get on these articles and comments is a merit badge that says Ruined Another Liberal’s Day. You’re going to have to live with us being right forever! You think your word games can actually alter reality, up until it passes you by.

          You deny how bad things are for Ukraine even more than Kiev does at this point! Keep your salt stained messages on the timeline proving how delusional you were when things really crumbled!
