            Have you considered that two imperial states might both produce propaganda?

              Yes, but liberals believe propaganda only comes from foreign governments and they are immune to all effects of it.

              MTG is a fucking idiot. But it doesn’t change the overall world perception of Ukraine prior to the US proxy war starting.

              I have zero interest in joining liberals, they have done as much damage to our government as republicans.

                  In a lot of cases, there really isn’t a choice. They either have to compromise, or get nothing. We don’t need better democrats, we need conservatives that will actually stop stonewalling their opposition just to make them look bad.

                  They’re fucking children.

              Ahh. One of the few users I blocked. I try to leave bad actors unblocked to refute their bullshit, lest impressionable readers think their opinions are valid. But if they’re visibly foaming at the mouth, they do that work for me.

          Alright Mods. Explain this and the other deleted comment that call @anticolonialist@lemmy.world out for parroting Russian propaganda.

          He literally accused OP of being a nazi supporter for supporting Ukraine.

          Yet, that comment stays up, while the comments calling that out as Russian propaganda are removed.

          I’ve seen this a lot on politics/worldnews/news.

          I’m guessing either these frequent agitators like @anticolonialist@lemmy.world are weaponizing the report button and others aren’t responding in kind, or the moderators in these subs are orcs / zionists.

          Explain.

              The classification of Ukrainians being Nazis as their pretext for the invasion (branded as liberation from Nazis) is categorically propaganda with zero merit.

              You can whatabout all you want about western left/right propaganda, but it doesn’t change that basic fact.

              And the fact that you’re still spouting that propaganda certainly makes the other user’s counter accusation that you’re a Russian apologist (orc) to be an obviously accurate statement.

              And enforcement of Rule 3 against someone responding in kind, while you’re off the hook for accusing them of being a Nazi sympathizer, is absolute bullshit.
