    Fair points on ml not allowing criticism, but your last point about how Western propaganda is more truthful sounds sort of like somebody who’s been drinking the propaganda, you don’t really have evidence to support that claim I think.

      Meh I don’t really want to get into that debate since we’re talking about a wide range of materials that may be more or less truthful depending on the exact source and topic.

      Regardless, propaganda is typically extremely misleading.
