In reply to the discussion: Just propaganda, or evidence of massive Ukrainian losses in Donbas fighting? [View all]mythology
(9,527 posts)87. I don't see that in serious OPs
Oh wait, were you trying to say that your posts are meant to be taken seriously? It's apparent to most people that all you do is post RT stories, taken directly and unquestioningly with virtually nothing added as to why we're supposed to take a propaganda organization seriously.
People are giving RT the credence it deserves, that is to say none. It's a joke to those who aren't fans of Putin (if I'm being charitable, hate the U.S. enough that they will ignore Putin's flaws) because nothing in it is critical of Putin or of Russia. It's no better a source on Russia than Fox News is on Obama.
