“You can’t handle the truth!”

Adrian Zenz, Rushan Abbas, and the USAGM are the furthest thing from the truth.

It’s never too late to develop some actual media literacy instead of parroting imperial core talking points.

    Parroting imperial core talking points? I dig a little in your post history and you're in there with "Ukrainians are nazis" and "Western media" screenshots without attributions?

    The Wikipedia page on the genocide of the Uighurs has 419 citations and yet you deny it.

    Cry harder, little bitch.

    edit: Wow, the links that follow surely aren't handpicked examples! I am TOTALLY convinced China is not genociding against the Uighurs and Russia is not genociding against Ukraine now!

    Since you asked so nicely about that meme, here are the links you asked for.

    I checked the two links toward BBC articles:

    One says children are fighting both sides (with Ukrain for some, for Russia for some others). It is terrible, but doesn't make a point favorable to any of the sides.

    The other one claims that about 5% of ukrainian fighters are far-rightists ; which is few given the score of far-right in Europe, but doesn't make the country a fascist one. Actually, the article you give as source denies this russian claim against Ukrain.

    I don't know which of the other links support your view, this two ones don't. Also, I don't know the other websites you use as sources, so I can't guess if they are reliable. I am too lazy to check them all, which of your links seems the most relevant to you?

    Using your own voice, say this into a recording device, then play it back and see if you can understand how .ml users sound to the rest of us.

    Also understand that it isn't really .ml user's proclivity for conspiracy theories and pretty....uhhh...interesting political opinions that have earned them the reputation they have. It's their behavior. It's the way they treat others. It's the censoring of others on their instance. It's their refusal to accept anyone else's more moderate views.

    Like I said. You guys have earned your reputation.
