    I agree with others that article was 100% Russian propaganda. Rule 2 of that community is “No links to misinformation”. So YDI in that respect.

    A month seems like an excessive ban for a first? infraction though - I would have thought a simple removal could have sufficed. So I guess there’s a bit of PTB too.

      How is it a propaganda?

      With all respect to you, Logic does not work with vibes.

      There has to be a proof, then a conclusion.

      Otherwise, it’s meaningless.

      Again, I highly respect you. But your opinion does not make any sense to me.

        Tbh that’s a bit like saying, “I mean no offence, but fuck you in the face”, lol. Here’s three clear examples:

        • The headline paragraph argues that European leaders are delusional and are responsible for escalating tensions with Russia. And that Putin only wants peace. This is a classic Russian disinfo trope to open with, and is in complete denial of reality.
        • Author blames NATO and the US for “provoking” Russia to invade Ukraine. This argument requires us to accept that Ukraine has no right to self determination simply by virtue of having Russia as a neighbour.
        • They accuse Europe of taking a “warmongering stance” when it’s Russian military aggression that is provoking all the increased military spending.

        I mean, it’s just laughably campist nonsense designed to convince people the country that brutally invaded it’s neighbour is the innocent victim here, and everyone else in Europe is a warmonger simply for helping Ukraine to resist the invasion. These are all common Russian state media talking points, that’s why it’s propaganda.

        Again, I highly respect you. But your opinion does not make any sense to me.

        Same

        Appeal to rules and “due process” isn’t going to work like it did a few years ago.

        You showed up bulldozing articles day 1. No one thinks you’re just some everyday community member who needs to be protected from the mean old mods.

          So you are saying that contributing to Lemmy regularly, forfit any right to call out power tripping mods?

          This is one of the most illogical comments I read on Lemmy.

          It’s like you were trying to make a argument but you forget to connect it together to make sense.
