      Next level McCartyhism: If it sounds vaguely Russian, it must also be banned. Remember when people were dumping out all their polish vodka to boycott Russia?

      Even if it were…what, do they think that the Russian Cyberwarfare Division (which is notably simultaneously capable of controlling US elections and is also running on 1940s hardware apparently) are going to brainwash them?

      You can read sources you don’t agree with, it is okay. I have read NYT before and have yet to regress to a lib.

        do they think […] are going to brainwash them?

        Yes. Liberals, being idealists, subscribe to the cooties theory of ideas.

      Some people on r/worldnews still say Pravda.ua is bullshit cause of the “Russian name” so people have to explain to them the difference.

      They also react negatively to articles from The Moscow Times and Novaya Gazeta, despite the two not even being based in Moscow and publishing exclusively anti-Russia pro-West/NATO content.
