It’s notable there’s no mention of what exactly the “disinformation” is. Apparently having the view that US/Ukraine provoked the Russian invasion by insisting they can join NATO and possibility of hosting nuclear weapons is “Russian propaganda”. It definitely is a Russian talking point but that doesn’t inherently make it false. Russia also claims that fossil fuels cause climate that doesn’t mean it’s propaganda either. Just like claims of “antisemitism” it’s hard to know whether these claims are in fact true without exactly knowing what was said.
- coliveira 2y agoAccording to Western media, saying anything that is also said by the Russian gov is "disinformation", it doesn't matter if it's true.
- Krssst 2y agoThere is such mention: > These range from claims that the U.S. operates secret bioweapons labs in Ukraine to fabricated narratives pushed by U.S. fugitive turned Kremlin propagandist John Mark Dougan claiming that Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky misused U.S. military aid to amass a personal fortune. (More on this below.)
