And BBC, that’s not state media though according to the arbiter of truth youtube
In fact, suggesting that the BBC is anything other than upstanding will land you on the shitlibs’ list of “extremism”.

Did labour conservatives ever remove or undo what tory conservatives did to the BBC to make it more like fox News/news Corp media?
Sometimes I go to .world to see what the state media dislikers are reading, and it’s kyivpost, kyiv independent, pravda ua…

Billionaire mouthpieces are all the same even if you believe they are different.
Fuck Russia and all its bullshit propaganda. Gtfo with this insane straw man no true Scotsmen begging the question super combo of logical fallacy.
This is some fucking dumb shit right hyuh.
The People are the Power. The rich are gonna learn it too late.
straw man no true Scotsmen begging the question super combo of logical fallacy.
This is like the exact opposite of magic words of power. Magic words of impotence
The only fucking dumb shit is this comment you left in my inbox. I don’t think you understood the meme at all.
;)
How do those logical fallacies apply here? I’m confused.
Billionaire mouthpieces are all the same even if you believe they are different.
That’s kind of what this meme is saying.
Don’t get second opinion syndrome. Just because the “good guys” are actually bad, doesn’t mean the “bad guys” aren’t also bad.
Good guys and bad guys don’t exist in real life though, because real life has no screenwriter. Better to learn the perspective of all parties and cross-reference them like an investigator
Whoops lol just noticed your quotation marks, seems like you probably roughly agree
I am able to read and think critically. How can you understand anything if you don’t read it and apply critical thinking to it? If you just read one side of media you are missing part of the picture.
I also don’t live where you do. I don’t think Russia is any worse than the US or Europe.
imagine approving of any media
The words “billionaire run” imply that Russian state media is not run by billionaires.
True, it would ideally be “local bourgeoisie vs international bourgeoisie” but I worry that would make the meme less comprehensible to non-marxists
I don’t think you understood the meme at all. It is someone pearl clutching about RT, namely people like yourself on lemmy.world on c/worldnews while not understanding it is the same bullshit they are currently reading. I never said RT wasn’t, in fact I’m implying they’re the same.
Same shit, or not? Wait, how many eastern journalist were killed for investigating oligarchs? Probably some.
And how about russia?

Gary Webb Panama Papers Chelsea Manning Julian Assange Edward Snowden Craig Spence
The real answer is that we’ll never know because they “kill themselves” or have “accidents” and it doesn’t go on CIApedia as a journalist murder. Just like the Boeing whistleblowers and the original leaders of Black Lives Matter.
Post-Soviet Russia has absolutely had an organized crime problem. The violence journalists face there strikes me as more reason to celebrate their work rather than censor it.
Yeah, but they also hype nuclear war and tell everyone how cool it would be to bomb every major city in Europe. Its a pick your propaganda.
