This is what the admins of .ml cultivate, as documented in the megathread

Credible sources removed just within the last day: https://lemmy.world/post/32298242 https://lemmy.world/post/32426343

.ml is not much different than the rest of the Triad, continued federation with them is continuing to allow them to spread toxic misinformation and behavior across the Threadiverse.

If you’re an instance admin, please consider defederation.

Users, consider joining the lemmy.ml boycott today and help foster a better Lemmy-verse! No more posts, comments (except to counter their propaganda ofc!) or upvotes on any comms on the Lemmy.ml instance.

Other wonderful content, and this is just from when I looked at the local new feed a bit ago:

Classic RT I’m sure you all know and Pravda.ru “Pravda Report”

    This irony is pretty thick. OP is crying about propaganda while promoting overt imperial propaganda (radio free europe, etc.). Libs and tankies are the same damn thing with different imperial branding. That’s all that this is.

      Radio Free [Region] is a perfectly credible news source that does a fair job of minimizing bias

      In any case, bias != Mis/Disinformation. They’re vastly different beasts. One just tries to subtly write things in a way that makes the reader favor their position the other is just straight lies and made up conspiracy theories to force a certain narrative among the populace

          Radio Free [Region] is literally a mouthpiece of blatant western imperialist

          Ok prove it then, surely something so widely known and “blatant” to be an outlet for misinformation would have numerous online, credible, sources with their evidence

            Radio Liberty was literally initiated by the CIA and has been controlled by the “United States Agency for Global Media” since it was privatised, please look it up…

            Even fucking Wikipedia has it listed in the first 3 paragraphs

              Lol, I already have

              Additional considerations apply to the use of Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty (RFE/RL). RFE/RL should be used cautiously, if at all, for reporting published from the 1950s to the early 1970s, when RFE/RL had a documented relationship with the CIA.

              RFE/RL may be biased in some subject areas (particularly through omission of relevant, countervailing facts), and in those areas, it should be attributed in the article body. There is no consensus as to what subject areas require attribution. The scope of topics requiring attribution of RFE/RL should be decided on a case-by-case basis.

              It hasn’t been true for some time now and is generally found to be credible and fairly unbiased and RFA is seen in even a more positive light:

              Radio Free Asia can be generally considered a reliable source. In particularly geopolitically charged areas, attribution of its point of view and funding by the U.S. government may be appropriate. Per the result of a 2021 RfC, editors have established that there is little reason to think RFA demonstrates some systematic inaccuracy, unreliability, or level of government co-option that precludes its use.

              And MBFC:

              In contrast this is what RT looks like:

                Oh. We cant prove they are. Then it must be fine; the cia would never hide things from or try to influence us. They even gave my grandpa both free lsd and free cocaine, in various decades. Theyre good people. We can trust when they say they’re not involved.

                I love how you point to this media bias site like it’s the gospel. Have you considered thinking by yourself for once?

        Dude, we arent shitlibs. World can defed from the next largest instance if it wants, but we see what you’re up to.

        Now that your size is no longer working to shield your server’s support of genocidal zionist terrorism and insane bluemaga bullshit, you’re working agInst the next largest server, which is only like 60% less vicious and bullshit (not praise for the tankies here) but differently aligned.

          In a roundtable carried by Uzbek TV on 18 March, three Uzbek political commentators made the case for war by claiming to have concrete information that Baghdad possessed weapons of mass destruction and had direct links with terrorists. “It is a well-known fact that Iraq possesses weapons of mass destruction. Its Al-Sumud and Al-Fatah ballistic missiles are capable of causing unspeakable disaster for humankind. Just imagine this dictator and despot, Saddam Hussein, passing on such weapons to Osama bin Laden or his henchmen!” said one Qobilbek Karimbekov. He continued: “It is Saddam Hussein’s regime that is currently sheltering those members of the Taliban and Al-Qaeda who fled Afghanistan… Incidentally, there is ample proof that dozens of suicide bombers in the Middle East are receiving financial aid from Iraq.”

          Golly gee I can’t believe a news source would quote Central Asian commentators when discussing Central Asian politics towards Iraq. It’s a good thing no one would be intellectually bankrupt enough to try to take that out of context and claim the news source was trying to push that point themselves.
