In reply to the discussion: As a Russian government owned entity, RT cannot be trusted [View all]HooptieWagon
(17,064 posts)17. UKR Govt hasn't been truthful either.
Lots of BS and propaganda being spewed by both sides. I'll say it again... neither side are "good guys", much like the situation in Syria. US efforts to keep Russian involvement to a minimum are good, but there isn't a "win" for the US in Ukraine.

Fact-checking, citing sources, searching out reputable sources: that's not self-censorship
