I agree. I also read RT occasionally and frequently ZeroHedge. It's certainly not all crap, but there has been some egregious propaganda and that's worth keeping in mind. But reading different country's news is a great way to get the feel for what's bullshit in our own.

Russian interests, even though I admire their anti-globohomo stance, are not American interests. They are not my interests. And on that point, I consider u/socks an internet friend, his penchant for egregious liberal propaganda and being wrong about pretty much everything aside, he's not a bad dude. However, his interests are also certainly not America's.
