    I just love it when someone posts propaganda and then goes into their own thread attempting to discredit everyone else as propaganda.

        I really appreciate all the work you do surfacing fresh takes on important global news. It’s a really valuable service to the community, and for that you have my thanks.

        I’m also getting tired of the hard propaganda spin you add to the comments, presumably to counter the western propaganda you see responding to your posts.

        I’d prefer to see the news without the verbal combat and assumptions that others are deluded or have an agenda.

        But it’s your choice. I just may end up spending more time fact checking your statements in the future; it’s a shame to have to do so.

          In general, I would encourage you not to take things at face value and actually spend some time learning about topics like this. You shouldn’t take my word for things, but this is obvious to you because what I say often goes against your existing beliefs. It’s even more important to fact check things that align with your biases. The kind of misinformation that’s the most effective is the kind that feeds on what you’re already primed to believe.

          edit: quite telling how people start downvoting comments that encourage them to question their conditioning 🤡
