First, I don't have a bias towards Russia. I think Russia is generally as bad as the west

I never see you condemn Russia or China for anything. You spend all your time on here defending/denying the existence of any faults in Russia and China.

Most people on LemmyNet (excluding LemmyGrad) will condemn Western countries as well as Russia/China.

I honestly believe you either have mental problems or are part of a state-run astroturfing operation.

I think there's quite enough condemning of Russia and China of everything under the sun in western media. I think providing a counter perspective is valuable. I don't know why you think that's such a gotcha.

I also love the whole enlightened centrism notion of people having some sort of a duty to condemn both sides. I choose the topics I want to focus on, and if you have topic you want to focus on that's up to you. Stop trying to police other people's speech.

Absolutely hilarious how liberals bloviate about freedom of speech but then rabidly attack anybody who exercises it in the way they don't like. Having such a reaction to seeing views you disagree with may be a sign of having serious mental problems.

I see people doing the opposite a lot of the time actually. Lots of people here whitewash what the west is doing and make excuses.

I honestly believe that you should get help in that case.
