Title, I'm a leftist but after reading some things on lemmygrad and here it seems I might have been lied to all my life. I have talked with some people from Cuba and Venezuela (expats) that support the west narrative about poverty and mismanagement. I "believe" that Russia is attacking Ukraine for selfish reasons and that China censors access to foreign information using the Great Firewall, please prove me wrong. Furthermore, it ultimately depends who do you want to believe or there are hard facts from reputable sources that are simply a hidden by the mass media?

EDIT: Thanks everyone for your very civil responses. I'll answer as many as I can!

      probably because it's routed through cloudflare, i think hexbear is too obscure to even end up on the radar of government censors

        We’ve probably at least come across the desk of some American fed, but there is no way that anyone in the Chinese government has ever heard of this website

          The thing is, Hexbear didn't used to be blocked. It happened a couple of months ago. Someone had to make a decision and add it to the list.
