    Russia justified the invasion of Ukraine with “denazification”. So, I don’t care what Russia thinks about it. It’s probably 60% bullshit and 40% propaganda.

    And what is that whataboutism about the US and Assange? I’m not even from the USA, in case you thought that…

    And even more whataboutism about Snowden?

    Must be hard for you to just write something about the death of Nawalny without focussing 90% of the text on the Vietnam war, 9/11 and the moon landing…

      It’s hardly a whataboutism if I’m simply pointing out the selective outrage that give people a skewed and one-sided view of reality. I wouldn’t have to bring up Assange if people gave him half as much attention, something that could actually help lead to his freedom and do something instead of demonizing happenings you have no control over aside from starting WW3.
