> the entire Russian public sphere has become performative. You have a wide variety of discussions shows, but all their guests are pre-vetted by the Kremlin and all they do is reiterate official talking points. I perceive that as not much different from the few German media I still occassionally watch. Since at least a decade, actually. And I've got grumpy about them much earlier, tossed my TV in 1996 already. But wasn't even so bad then, as it is now. Edit: I also like their "Question more!" Just for the hell of it. Yes! Question all the shit the suckpuppets are bubbling out. All the times.
