    The fact that any opinion that dissents from the mainstream western political discourse is branded as “propaganda” by people the likes of you demonstrates the virulently xenophobic paranoia that plagues the west (and always has). You are too daft to understand that the person you are talking about is a communist, and his posts reflect his ideas, not the paid interests of a foreign power, the same way it would be idiotic to call you a Ukrainian propagandist for excusing the unapologetic racism of its government officials.

      All I’m doing is countering the very obvious bad faith snippet that has been posted. That you frothing at the mouth ruzzian supporters keep spinning it as something it isn’t just proves you live in an echochamber

        Le bad faitherino!!1!

        Why does it matter the “faith” it has? The video is there, and it is not edited. You can think the post has one or another goal but the truth is that this what the news portray has happened. You on the other side keep insisting on the “russian propaganda” meme and saying that what has been said is not what it has been translated as while failing to even provide an alternate translation, so either you do it or you can keep schizo-ranting about the “russian propagandists” that are crawling inside your walls.

          I did provide an alternate translation. Backed up by a native speaker. So maybe try harder next time?

            plus have a Russian speaking partner to back me.up

            PFFFFTTHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

            Dude, you cannot go around searching people’s comments trying to find evil foreign propagandists and denouncing news outlets as unreliable propaganda and then pull out a “source: my wife” as a defense.

            So maybe try harder next time?

            It smells like sweat and doritos in here. Redditor, I presume?

              It’s not my wife. And I can understand a bit of Russian and ukrainian

              I can go through peoples history to say people have a bias… because it’s just facts- those things you’d rather not engage with.

              And I only call out propaganda sources if they have a verifiable history of producing biased propaganda. If you aren’t one of those people with an agenda then I guess you shouldn’t be offended by it.

              Yeah- I know, it’s not the tried and true method of not researching anything and just spouting talking head/russia one but it’s the way things work.

              Try harder.

                Wife, girlfriend, non-binary partner or anime bodypillow, as if it was any important. You claim people are propagandists for having a political bias and then you go and bring up your partner of all people as a source. Talk about equal standards.

                Try harder.

                Sorry le kind stranger, would it be trying hard enough if I gave you some wholesum reddit gold?

                  I bring her into it because she’s a native speaker and I got her translation from it. Far better than you lot doing nothing/bad ai.

                  I claim people are propagandists if they do nothing but give one sided views on their comments and posts without actually reading/researching the material involved. Easy to see since comment history is a thing.

                  You asked for an alternate translation- I gave one. You on the other hand have done nothing but prove my point that you don’t actually want to research anything and prefer to drink from the russia one nozzle.

                  Oh also- try harder because your current amount of effort is pathetic.

                    You think you deserve an effort? It’s been a while since I stopped caring and began to just pull your leg. If you want a serious debate I am afraid you will have to ask Vladislav, the Russian spy hiding under your bed. Have a very wholesum chungus day my good sir.
