This is what not having free speech looks like. For those of you in the back.
It's interesting to see how the mental gymnastics attempt to avoid this. I sometimes look at Tiktok and if you go to the comments on anything Russia/Ukraine related it's very clear to see which accounts are bots/stooges and what their narrative instructions are.
Their favourite thing to do is to equate the West and Russia. That both do the same thing, and Russia is just more honest about it. Which I can sort of at least understand to some extent from a foreign policy perspective. But these accounts will earnestly say that the West does the same. including assassinating political rivals and this sort of shit. They also equate Ukraine wanting to join NATO as equivalent to Russia invading the country.
The US has done it. But not recently. Though Trump did give it a try with Mike Pence in 2021. And never to the extent that Russia has and is.
This is the extreme version of it but dont forget than it can be way more subtitle.
