“In defiance of the imposed sanctions, the Russian propaganda outlets RT and Sputnik persistently disseminate disinformation within the European Union by utilising mirrored resources on platforms that have been blocked.
Research group Reset reports that one of them is the portal Swentr, which was registered three days after the announcement of sanctions against RT and uses at least 19 websites to reach an EU audience. Sputnik also operates through mirror sites such as sputnikglobe.com.”
It’s actually pretty accurate, lmao. The meme is saying dark green is the best, not light green, though RSF treats light green as the best. That’s the source of the misalignment.
As much as BBC is pure British propaganda, sure. “Press freedom indexes” generally measure how privatized the press is, it doesn’t actually measure how truthful the press is. Russian press is fully capable of presenting true accounts.
All clocks are “broken,” then. They all serve their own interests, that means we have to identify what they are to figure out how to read them. The fact that Ukrainians are struggling, many are fighting back against conscription vans, etc. is both convenient to Russia and actually true. That doesn’t mean everything RT says is correct 100%, but it does mean that not everything pro-Russia or anti-Ukraine from Russian media is wrong.
For example, I know BBC frequently outright lies and fabricates information about China. This is well-documented, they even add gray or yellow filters to video to make it seem scarier. That doesn’t mean they are never correct.
according to you then 90% of the news is unreliable. the only reliable shit is bluemaga news outlets or similar shit in the western world. smooth brain!

If anyone was curious about wtf swentr.site was.
I don’t really think it’s a secret that this is a Russian POV, that doesn’t mean it’s worthless.
I wasn’t aware of this site, so I looked it up.
Everyone should know it’s a source originating from a country with a press freedom index of 172 out of 180
https://rsf.org/en/index
Suffice it to say, it’s pure Russian government propaganda. The value is knowing what they dislike.
If you actually looked at the RSF.org index, you’ll notice how off the colors are on the light greens lmao. Weak meme.
yeah, sooo different!!!
It’s literally the same map just shifted down 1 colour so that light green is the top instead of dark green.

Capability and practice are very different words.
A broke clock can be right twice a day, but it won’t reliably tell you the time.
Knowing that the clock is broken lets you determine that you’ll need at least one more reference to tell time.

Sounds like you just realized that time is relative. Congrats.
The irony of talking about conscription vans and Russian state credibility is very funny.
Point is, this news site is unreliable in the same way Fox News is unreliable. Take it as an unreliable data point and move on with the analysis.

This is like a soup of half-statements
Sure, it happens to corroborate what we know about the state of conscription in Ukraine.
