Coincidentally, the Russian Duma just passed a bill criminalizing with up to 15 years of prison time what they consider to be misinformation about this very same topic. Obviously, the point of their bill is to silence speech, particularly opinions, that differ from the state approved narrative. |
No. Pretty sure that's anti-fact. It criminalizes calling what Russia is doing to Ukraine a "war" or "invasion". |
This made me angry. I guess it's easier for me to get angry than for me to cry. I just feel very angry and I feel like it's all unfair. |
I'm sure it'll be used to criminalize anything they don't like the sound of. Russia's future is done. |
I do feel bad for these innocent people. Hopefully one of them takes out Putin and his cronies. |
| So is Russia now a pariah state in the direction of North Korea? All of the thought control laws they have now seem like a step beyond normal propaganda. |
| Russian journalists are out of work now, especially if they've been independent media trying to report on the truth. Journalists in Moscow are figuring out how to erase histories and records from their computers and phones. |
Yes, in a little more than one week, Putin has turned them into North Korea. |
LOL that means TASS, RIA, RT, Izvestia, Pravda and other Russian news outlets are breaking the law because they are spreading disinformation instead of telling the truth of the Ukraine war. |
Russia considers calling "this very same topic" a "war" or "invasion" to constitute criminal misinformation. No idea what "anti-fact" you are talking about. I think you just did not read carefully. |
