AI summary:
A Chilean journalist, Gonzalo Lira, who had been living in Ukraine, was arrested by the Security Service of Ukraine on suspicion of pro-Russian sympathies and criticizing the government. He had been detained before in April, released, and then rearrested for voicing views critical of the West and Ukraine’s government. He faced torture while imprisoned, then managed to post bail but decided to flee to Hungary for political asylum. He believed the Ukrainian government was setting him up to be arrested again. He went missing after attempting to cross the Ukrainian-Hungarian border. The situation highlighted concerns about free speech and the treatment of dissenters in Ukraine.
No sources listed, selling a bunch of crap in the links below the video, first screen I see has the RT watermark.
What’s with tinfoil hats and !worldnews@lemmy.mlYou are never going to see something like this reported on reputable brainwashing propaganda outlets, like BBC, CNN, etc. I don’t know how people still believe those sources. Wake up!
Grow up, tankie
Grow up, tankie
I thought of this hearing you use the word tankie to describe someone sharing their opinion. Everyone you don’t agree with is a tankie am I right?
I think you might want to make sure you don’t follow me.
Because your “woke communist propaganda” comment makes me think you’re a moron of the first order.
I strongly suspect I am one of those “woke communists” you worry about. But you probably couldn’t actually explain what either of those words actually mean, could you?
I’m a card-carrying atheist, I think a woman’s right to choose is very important, I think that “well regulated militia” means that guns should be carefully licensed and not just randomly given to any moron with a pulse, and I couldn’t care less if you decided to dress up in the “wrong” clothes or decided you’d rather live your life without feeling tied to whatever plumbing you were born with.
And dammit, if that all makes me “woke”, then I think anybody who uses that word as a pejorative is a f*cking disgrace to the human race. So please just unfollow me right now.

You’re probably being called a tankie because you’re posing Russian propaganda and acting like daddy vladdy’s media is somehow better than western media. It’s hilarious that you think you’re more informed when your video is using media from unapologetic liars (and that’s also a good description of Dore himself).
You can call Western media liars and propagandists, but if you’re posing Russian media unironically while doing so, no one is going to pay attention to your opinion because it’s clearly uninformed and entirely pants on head.
acting like Daddy Vladdy’s media is somehow better than Western media
I’ve mentioned in a previous comment that both Russian and US media can be seen as propaganda. I value them equally and believe they hold similar importance. It’s essential for people to consider various perspectives before forming conclusions. I label US media as propaganda because it’s predominantly consumed, but the same applies to media from any other country.
I think you are on the wrong Lemmy instance. I (we) are not interrested in reading about Putins version of the truth here. I think Lemmygrad has users that shares your worldview.
Oh really? Please provide a source.
As far as I know
This is an Antifa instance

So how does Putin’s boot taste like?
The bootlickers are the ones who believe everything that the elite tells them through the mainstream propaganda outlets.
- The US propaganda machine explained
- Network (1976) - We Are The Illusions Tube Speech
- It’s a mediaopoly
At least I’m looking at alternative sources.
Oh wow a TikTok and YouTube video. Irrefutable proof that everything you say must be true and factual. 🙄
Can you explain why your title reads “U.S. journalist” yet the very first line of the article states “Chilean journalist?” Why does your link contain material directly from Russian state media? You claim that US media are pushing lies, but how does that have any bearing on whether your link is true? Sounds like someone needs to redo their Propaganda101 course. Good luck, comrade!
The TikTok video appears to be more well-researched than most of the current reporting.
The summary is AI generated. You need to hear both Russian and US propaganda if you want to be able to know the truth about the war. The link doesn’t have to be true, you have to do your own due diligence by gathering as much information as possible and sifting through it if you want to reach the truth. This is just a piece of the puzzle. I don’t know why someone so critical of Russia would say comrade.

So you admit that your post is Russian propaganda and that it doesn’t matter if it’s true or not because you have to read a bunch of propaganda to find the truth? That makes zero sense. Hearing propaganda repeated from different sources doesn’t lead you to the truth whatsoever.
It’s as much propaganda as any news from the US mainstream propaganda outlets like BBC, CNN, CBS. They aren’t trying to inform you, they are misleading you into believing whatever they want you to believe. So to find the truth you need to see things from different perspectives and figure it out for yourself.
What do the BBC, CNN, and CBS have to do with the authenticity of your post here on Lemmy?
Funny how you say your post is equivalent to CNN or CBS and then immediately say the intention of those companies is to deceive people, which implies that this is your intention as well. You’re saying the quiet part out loud.
I’m not saying it about the post though, that’s your interpretation. I’m saying RT is as much a propaganda outlet as BBC, CNN, CBS, etc. So do not believe them outright, do your own due diligence.
LOL unironically baying for Russian blood and demanding more tanks to be sent to the proxy war meat grinder and watching war footage and cheering as long as the narrative is Russians getting shot and then lacking self awareness to the degree that you call someone else a bootlicker? Will wonders never cease.
He was reporting on Ukrainian military positions to the russians.
Funny how that gets left out.
If that’s true why aren’t the mainstream propaganda outlets all over this story to make the Russians look bad?
Jimmy Dore, a man who has publically admitted he will say anything for the highest bidder. I’ll never believe a word he says about anything.
