Russia censors all its media. Russia uses the RT as a tool of his war in Ukraine (as far the only Russian war). No w we have ban of war hate propaganda 'censorship'.Xx236 (talk) 05:52, 27 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
If you do not understand - ask instead to censor me.
Usage of the word 'censorship' in this context is a pro-Russian statement, a neutral word should be used. This is not a computer game, this a genocidal war, in which any military, propaganda, economic tool is being used by Russia. Russia is the invider.Xx236 (talk) 09:38, 27 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Be careful with tossing the word 'genocide' around. Definitions don't change during times of international conflicts and we should beware not to let our sense of reason be overtaken by which side we may or may not pick in any conflict.

Anther joke 'an autonomous non-profit organization' under Putin's rules. Russia is not the UK, please do not misuse Western words descibing the authoritarian state. Xx236 (talk) 09:42, 27 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
'after Russia's annexation of Crimea' - the referenced sourse says also about Donbas, not only about Crimea.Xx236 (talk) 09:49, 27 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
TFD above "Your sources in fact explain why RT fulfils a propaganda function". The function has been changing, so 'fulfils' misleads. 'Why' is obvious, becasue the Russian leadership (sometimes callled Putin) has decided so. Xx236 (talk) 09:55, 27 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Unfortunately, the powers that be decided RT cannot operate in the western sphere of influence, so RT USA was canned through sanctions therefore all programs they made have ended, including the award winning On Contact with Chris Hedges, a Pulitzer prize winning journalist because REASONS Apeholder (talk) 16:09, 27 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

"resorting to calling anti-vaccination activists "imbeciles""
Remove "resorting to", as it implies it is wrong to do so. 2.96.239.118 (talk) 20:17, 29 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
