No, it has to do with who reports it, and who believes it. If mostly westerners believe it, and it's reported by mostly media companies that don't have to worry about going to prison for reporting the news, that's really all the information you need to decide to act like it's not true.

'Media companies' that are an interegral part of the corp/gov system have no worries. Individuals working within such entities are fine too if they stay within the confines. Readers who limit themselves to the propaganda get what they deserve; a low-overhead brainwashing.

Alisa Lipp is a poster-child for media which is not beholden to the aforementioned corp/gov conglomerate. She's facing three years in prison for going to Donbas and reporting to the world what she sees, and there are many in her same boat. Now Ukraine has taken out contracts on people like her who report that Zelensky/Kolomoyski don't want reported...and people like you are still perfectly happy to clean Zelensky's asshole with your tongue because it's all that you know.

No different than your Global Cooling argument.

Funny enough, it is 'no different'; this is yet another thing you invented in your mind. My position has been consistent: The temperature of the earth has been drifting higher since the last ice-age ended. Go ahead and find something I said which conflicts with that if you want to waste your time.
