I think it said something like "the media before 2014" and it's just a ton of headlines about the nazis in Ukraine before the west completely aboutfaced and never talked about it again. I searched Google, reddit, Twitter and here and for the life of me cannot find it. Tyia

    I was outright horrified at how fast not just the media but every single liberal I knew did a 180 on Ukrainian Nazis. It really, starkly demonstrated just how shallow most people's pretenses of antifascism are.

      Knowing that there's no amount of evidence you can show someone who was told that something is propaganda by Bad Country (who's conveniently an enemy of the west) that will change their mind is...bad

      Like I know exactly who would've supported the red scare, Vietnam and Korean invasions, and invasion of the Middle East because they refuse to think for themselves or fucking read anything

        "We have to support (South Korea/South Vietnam) because they were invaded by their imperialist neighbor and they have a right to defend themselves from being genocided!"

      Yeah most people think imperialism is when magic line on map changes. Amerikkkans didn't change map lines in Iraq so it's not imperialism

            So many people get mad when I point out the simple truth that the British Broadcasting Corporation is as much British propaganda as Russia Today is Russian propaganda.

              Hell BBC is worse than what they think either of those are, I've never seen CGTN or RT defend any pedophiles like I've seen BBC vehemently do so
