They are blaming Russia for censoring the Western news and media, but Europe was first in this war with this kind of censorship by removing Russian TV channels, news websites et cetera. I literally see the news that Russia Today is banned all over Europe and few hours later they call out Russia for censoring American or Western newsletters and channels. They call one censorship, and the other one a sanction. The argument about Putin being a pedophile exists on both sides. The propaganda clearly exists in both Western and Russian state media, each having their own purposes to fulfill. I have seen them mentioning how under 100 Ukrainian soldiers have died at the time while the Ukrainian forces have killed over 4,000 Russian soldiers which is just so unrealistic.
Interesting. Can you cite some of the sources for your post here? I think this is a very important post....
I will add the virus situation in the middle of all of this. Two weeks ago we were fearing a virus nobody seems to care about anymore. Protests are now allowed, gatherings of soldiers are just fine, it is like there is no virus to fear anymore. I have even heard multiple times that the pandemic has been over since the middle of March. Wait, what?! What is going on really? How is it over when only two weeks ago everyone seemed to still fear a Covid infection? When did we get over a pandemic?!
Oh COViD is still rocking along, US is running at about 1500 dead a day/10k a week dead. However since death is easy to prevent it's not a big deal.
But yeah, when I hear "7,000 Russian troops died last week" it's like "yawn, pikers."
