Jup, en Vlaamse media is totaal geen propaganda.. Elke media is propaganda, smh.
I check some Russian newspapers everyday and it’s really confusing. They keep talking about military exercises, not war or invasion and they firmly deny they are the ones shooting missiles at cities. They keep repeating they are doing this to protect the minorities in the Donbass (then why attack major other cities?), but their believe of there being a genocide against ethnic Russians has been completely debunked. There are no numbers to back that up.
I’m watching RT’s live on youtube just to have an idea of what they are saying…
My conclusion is simple : they are batshit crazy
I don’t mind let us have access and make our own opinion.
Absolutely not block RT.
It’s important we see how their governement feeds info to their own people.
We should be intelligent enough to see it’s fake propaganda.
Like the missile in the appartment building was ukrainian?
Sure why not, can be? Even if it was, they would not have misfired if you did not invade their country in the first place. So whatever it is, it’s Russia’s fault.
I don’t have TV, but at my parents I saw the name “Fox” in the listing.
Is that Fox where all the TV shows are or Fox News or both?
If both, go ahead and ban Fox News too, because that’s American style propaganda by the far right and one of their main anchors has been spouting Pro Putin shit to this day.
Alsof CNN, BBC world en al jazeera geen propaganda zijn…
I’d say it should be kept on and recorded. The stuff coming out right now is the closest we’ll get to a signed confession.
I find it interesting watching their side, censorship is never the solution.

Surprised it took us so long. RT should have been banned years ago. Russians have been poisoning the minds of many people all over the world through their propaganda channels, funding far-right groups, making themselves look “strong” etc. It is disgusting. We keep making the same mistake as with Hitler: we must not let dictators anywhere near the government.
Some kind of a global council should exist that would basically authorise the removal of any wannabe dictator in any country by any means possible. It was clear that Putin was going to be a dictator pretty much from the moment he got power.
I don’t think that is smart. We are, officially, still not at war with Russia. Censoring their press will only make it easier for them to portray us as the bad guys. Not to mention it will rob us of a chance to find out what the Russian govt wants the world to think they are thinking. It’s also a means of communication, something you want to keep available if you are interested in deescalating or ending a conflict. But if you’re going to do it, do it right and ban VB from social media.
