This is just one paragraph from a piece RT published.

“Paris riots: The verdict on progressive rule

This disorder is the brutal, undeniable verdict on decades of liberal and progressive rule: the project has failed completely. Mass migration is not simply a generous humanitarian act. It is a deliberate security threat. It is the engine of the left’s cherished dream of erasing European civilization from within – something many conservatives call the ‘Great Replacement’, and many liberals, a conspiracy theory.”


Sounds like the “official narrative” of Russia is one people here largely agree with.

It’s just funny to me to find such “delusional, evil portrayers of misinformation” be in near total agreement with many Americans.

It might be that Russians simply have their own opinions on any of the myriad events happening at any given time

Hyper focusing in on times they may not agree with us is just the way it goes and is not a sign they are insane, liars, unable to look objectively at reality, nor any of the other invectives lobbied at them.

Just a thought…

Agreeing that mass immigration is not good for one's country and disagreeing with a military invasion of a neighboring country are not the same. The only difference between what is happening to Europe and Ukraine is the lack of a Minister of PR saying it is a "special military operation"

Who's worried about the Russian people?

Certainly not Putin.

RT “state media” is writing more truth than our CIA plant controlled media or the US owned media that controls our allies.

Western society is screwed.

Move to Russia, dude. Seriously.

How do you know he (them) is not there at this very moment?

Indian media is reporting that their trade with Russia is up 20%, and Russian media is stating the same thing.

But that can’t be because the honest, free western media claims that they cratered Russias economy, that they can’t make basic supplies, that their banking system has collapsed and on and on.

Who is telling the truth?

A month ago American media claimed Russia was out of diesel because all their refineries are destroyed. Now, to slander Trump they are whining about Russian diesel being shipped here.

The CIA media lies to us. Stop the claims of American honest media superiority. People claiming US media is “more honest” and accurate than anyone else’s look foolish.

I really don’t care about Russia, or Ukraine TBH. Both are small, to medium size economies that offer little value to the US. If Russia wasn’t a semi military power, I wouldn’t think of them at all. They are the same to me as Pakistan.

Russias cratered and “medium sized” economy is really one of the top 10 economies in the world in 2026, according to the IMF.

American media doesn’t report this fact because our thought masters want us to think it’s smaller than it really is.

I reply to a lot of threads. The US gdp per capita is over $95k Russia is under $20k. Outside of being a nuclear power they are meaningless. Seriously, they are insignificant with a non 1st world quality of life, an aged and ineffective military, and low international standing.

Personally I like the Russian people for the most part, hardy and tough, but their country is immaterial, a rounding error in the world.

I hate to add to Todor's point, but if they are so meaningless why is the president of the US negotiating with them to release fuel?

Because we are so far in debt, we can’t afford even small hiccups in our economy.

Every minor blip now requires trillion dollar bailouts that all have to borrowed, and our ability to borrow is only decreasing, while our rates keep increasing.

The “lying Russian media” often discusses why their fiscal policies are anti debt.

The honest American never explains to people why the “richest country on earth” can’t balance a budget, pay for the necessities every society has to have to exist, and has to borrow to stop it all from caving in on itself.

There are only 6 economies in the world that matter, the US, China, Germany, Taiwan, Japan and South Korea. Everyone else is just a supplier to those economies. Those countries invent, develop, engineer, or manufacture almost everything the modern world requires. We are the most important because we do all those things plus buy everybody else’s stuff plus we are resource rich.

The US and China are over half the planet’s GDP. We are about 70% of 21st century GDP, the six countries I listed are almost 90% of modern technology GDP.

Russia is the West Virginia of the world, an extraction economy where the real benefit of that extraction flows outside their border while facing an ever decreasing reserve.
