This is a Dengist community in favor of Bashar al-Assad with no information that can lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton, our fellow liberal and queen. This community is not ironic. We are Marxists-Leninists.
This community is for posts about Marxism and geopolitics (including shitposts to some extent). Serious posts can be posted here or in /c/GenZhou. Reactionary or ultra-leftist cringe posts belong in /c/shitreactionariessay or /c/shitultrassay respectively.
We have a Matrix homeserver and a Matrix space. See this thread for more information. If you believe the server may be down, check the status on status.elara.ws.
Rules:
(I don't know why it also says Pirate Bay, since I clicked on the Sputnik News URL)
They do it by forcing DNS server operators to remove certain entries. You can get around it by selecting a non-censoring or non-EU based DNS provider or running your own resolver.
I remember German libs jumping with joy back in late 2021 when Germany blocked all remaining "evil misinformation spreading Russian state media."
But supposedly these western countries have “freedom of speech” and ebil ccp have that big bad firewall
In looking into this again I found a supposedly serious legal breakdown that literally says that in the intro paragraph.
To address legitimate questions of double standards that will come up in the wake of the inevitable whataboutism, it should be stressed that the Union’s measures differ decisively from any authoritarian censorship by virtue of the Union’s character as a community of law.

The case for blocking Russian media is made on the basis that it is "propaganda for war," yet one cannot seriously argue that what western media is doing isn't propaganda for war.
Jesus…And yet people will still purport that Europe and the way is full of free speech.
yet one cannot seriously argue that what western media is doing isn’t propaganda for war.
Well you see, they are the Good Guys, so they can't do propaganda. That is only for authoritarian dictatorships, not enlightened democracies like civilized European countries. Otherwise, their totally free media would call them out on it.
So...their argument is literally just "it's ok when we do it?" not even trying anymore. Though I guess they don't have to.
yeah cause 'muh freezedom o speezch' tells me that russian media is poison that'll make me hate ukraine and the west. Its for my own safety after all.
Is the URL you’re blocked from https://sputnikglobe.com/?
Oh that one works, thank you
No problem! What URL were you trying to go to?
sputniknews.com
Interesting. For me in the US, it just redirects to the other one
Do they mean Sputnik blocks EU address or EU blocks Sputnik?
EU blocks Russian media. Meanwhile the European Court of Human Rights punishes Russia for blocking Russian content.
Bruger du en VPN, siden det er på hollandsk?
Jeg er halv Hollandsk og bor i Holland så derfor siden er i Hollandsk
Forstået, have en god dag
Does anyone know if Sputnik News has an RSS feed? I tried looking before but couldn't find it for my news reader.
https://sputnikglobe.com/ IF THIS DONT WORK USE https://archive.is/ RT TV https://odysee.com/@RT:fd?view=content
Why would you want to, though?
Why not? They are actually a decent news source and they often provide points of view that have been entirely scrubbed from the media in the west.
