Here is evidence of your conclusion that they are into Russian propaganda: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30514215 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30514215 If you read through their other comments, they are doing everything they can to spread pro-Russia misinformation throughout HN many times a day.

  Yeah, because I believe that's the truth. And the world is overwhelmed by western propaganda. If you believe in freedom of speech, whatever I say shouldn't be a problem, am I right? God save you if you ever hear an opinion that is in disagreement with your beliefs.

    > If you believe in freedom of speech, whatever I say shouldn't be a problem, am I right? No, not at all. I can believe in free speech and still believe that it's harmful to spread misinformation. > God save you if you ever hear an opinion that is in disagreement with your beliefs. The problem is not the fact that your opinion is in disagreement; it's the fact that your opinion is objectively, demonstrably wrong. People who point that out aren't clutching their pearls because they're so offended you have a dissenting opinion.

        > I believe I'm telling the truth and you are spreading misinformation. Good for you, but that's a non-sequitur. The point is that "if you believe in free speech then it shouldn't matter what I say" is wrong-headed.

This is just offensive and doesn't contribute to the discussion. Why was my answer flagged but this offensive comment is left as is? Also, this is my main account and it's 5 years old. Can't say the same for you, really. Why are you ashamed of your opinions?
