What Russia says is not made up. And if Russia talks about de-nazification and borsht, then is being aided by idiotic comments filled with whataboutery made by Russian fanboys from Ouagadougou, I'm already able to freely make my mind without even reading the news from the other side. I can combine it with the statements I heard from Ukrainians, and guess who'll be winning.
No, I'm not talking about being "bombarded" by the media, but by the people who support one side or another.
If I'll see a photo of a dead child, I'll see a photo of a dead child. That's it. Who was responsible for this, I do not know. But I can try to verify it, to check if the photo actually comes from Donetsk in the first place. I can also give up, remind myself the actual EXPERIENCE with the content produced by pro-Russian folks and pro-Ukrainian folks, and come up with a conclusion on who is more reliable. The one who's yapping about de-nazification of Ukraine and Poland restoring the Commonwealth? Or those who don't?
If the perfidity of one propaganda is unimportant to you, then it's not my problem.

Why include only 2 convenient for you options? I can easily add 3rd one:
I am more inclined to believe in the testimonies of Ukrainians received first-hand, than in statements from pro-Russian sources that try to justify the invasion and mass murder by making up stories about borsht and de-nazification.
I'm not going to name "one war that was nice", because I never made such statement. I'm responsible for what I say and for what is posted, not for what you want to see there. The fact that wars are bad and people are dying is, in fact, another reason to condemn Russia for its invasion.
The West are masters at everything I just mentioned and how their propaganda presents it as noble.
Western propaganda in all its history is more sophisticated and it evolves. That's why less people are as critical about certain actions of the Western governments - the weak points are improved. Russian propaganda stays in one place, talks crap easy to debunk by pretty much everybody who lives outside of Russia.
did he condemn starving 100k Yemeni a year by the "western values" countries? nah
Is there a thread asking me to do so? Nah. If you want me to share my views about this or that, ask me about it in PROPER places - don't make claims about my alleged views, just because it would be convenient for you if I held these views. It only reveals your "ability" of having a fruitful conversation.
What you're trying to do here is an example of hypocrisy that you were supposedly pointing out. When America was murdering people, you say "it's bad, it needs to be condemned, we must hate it". But now you're okay with Russia doing exactly the same to other nation, because "America did it". If you condemn America for doing it, why are you defending Russia?
