>My question for you russia-bro is this: What's the propaganda like in your country? Is it pretty anti-American these days, sort of similar to what's going on the US versus Russia?
Honestly?
Well there's the Internet an there's russian tv.
On the internet you can find all sorts of publications, from openly pro-putin to openly-nazi, but some of the most popular are oppositional (Meduza is literally headquartered in Riga, a NATO port, whereas Nastoyashee Vremya is a joint publication between the Voice of America and some other company)
But TV is of bigger importance for the same reason as in the US. A large chunk of the population gets their news primarily from TV (we even have the name for it in russian, we call TVs Зoмбoящик (lit. zombie-box)
Anyway I stopped watching TV about 10 years ago, when I was like 12.
When I first opened the CNN website around the same time I saw the same level of propaganda as i've been seeing on Russian TV. But at least back then the West had more decent, less biased and more neutral publications, loike Reuters, Bloomberg, or even fucking Vice (back at the time).
What's happening now is that both russian TV and american TV (cnn, fox, etc) gradually became more and more retarded, with CNN actually and unironically becoming more retarded than the russian tv.
But for me the real problem is that even more neutral publications (5 years ago I would have said BBC was also biased, but still less so than russian tv) became so retarded you can't really rely on them anymore when it comes to politics (look what happened to the aforementioned vice, reuters, bloomberg). Which is a real shame, because I grew accustomed to getting news from several sources with different views, but now I additionally have to read thru tonnes of bullshit.
tl;dr before Crimea american media offered much less biased sources, now it's a clusterfuck of bullshit from all sides
