Genuinely shocked by the idea that someone is seeking out Russian news sources as a better source of truth. The BBC or FT? Sure, fine. Al Jazeera? Ummm… maybe, but with some VERY big caveats. But Russia?
Would you share some of your favorite news sources?
Thank you for revisiting this topic. I trust that those who read your posts are slightly more enlightened than the typical Fox and Friends or i dare say Tucker "RT" Carlson cultist. It is a bit within the human DNA to be contemptuous of the familiar (in this case Western democracy/media).
People in the west are unhappy, (personally i blame the "new gilded age" and the social Media algorithms), the propaganda seen instantly on their phones from the misinformation machine looks good. The Russian misinformation factories make things in Western democracies seem muddier than they truly are. They're muddy but not to that extent.
The post is kind of preaching to the choir, but sometimes the choir needs to be preached to.
