    enemy propaganda

    enemy of whom? afaik Ukraine isn't the one bringing this, the EU is. on what basis should the EU suppress the speech of Russians if there is not a state of war between them?

      I was using the framing of the comment I was responding to but, yeah Russia is an enemy to both the US and Europe, with or without a war. The Russian government is nothing but a cartel at this point. Not that the US is a whole lot better in many regards, but at least political assassinations aren't something we got used to.

        lmao yeah at least the US doesn't assassinate people!

        shouldn't Free Speech be sacred enough to not be suppressed until the most dire of circumstances? [actual war]?
