Weren't most americans supporting the "war on terror"?

And weren't all your president approving drone strikes on kids and families for decades?

The level of propaganda that americans consume is not to different to the one of russians.

Ofc it didn't help that Ukraine was harboring entire Nazi battalions.

Just think if China was putting a military base in the mexican border and Mexico hired Nazis to fight for them. What would the international response would be like? Not too difficult to imagine eh?

Ah okay, you're not legitimately criticizing the US, you're a Russian troll. I see. You played your hand a little too strong there.

Ukraine was not harboring "Nazi battalions". The US has never intentionally targeted children with drone strikes. Both of these things are ridiculous to even state.

The news media in the US absolutely engages in propaganda, however it's usually for the benefit of the wealthy, not so much for the benefit of the government. In the US, you get unedited access to news from around the world, it is a trivial matter to read Channel NewsAsia (from Singapore), Al Jazeera (from Qatar), or Der Spiegel (from Germany) in English on the Internet, all of which are much less friendly to US policy interests globally and are more than happy to write scathingly about US behaviors abroad.

Good luck to you.

Ever heard of the Azov battalion?

Oh sorry the US does it constantly by mistake. Its just stuck on a loop.

As if the government and the wealthy weren't extremely closely related. One even might say "twins"
