Who runs the BBC these days? It costs billions to run the media. It's usually the 1% corporate types. I prefer the rt's honest dishonesty to the BBC's mendacious dishonesty. Can't say I read RT religiously either. But I do love Polly Boiko. I used to spend all day reading the press online but most stuff is hidden behind a paywall these days to keep the oiks out. My mate Luka from Georgia hates Putin and RT, hates Russia. I hope we can keep the peace with Russia unlike that Biden turd who wants war with Russia. Russia today is propaganda, well shit on me, who knew? The best propaganda is truth and facts.
As for BF or the demagogues and football hooligans, they are a tiny minority.

I think it was a mistake to allow the BLM protesters to get away with attacking statues without any repercussions.
I think there is sympathy and concern for the BLM campaign for obvious reason, where there are none to the FLA that are largely profiled as white racist thugs.

BBC has alot of bias and political appointees depending on which government is in power at the time. I wouldn't call it an out and out propaganda machine myself, I dont watch it if I want an unfiltered news source
Russia today is on a whole different level IMO when it comes to fabrications, twisting of the narrative.
I dont know why im even trying to justify it, its so blatantly transparent

Anyway I dont want to argue about it as I consider you a mate
I Feel its obvious that they are using this opportunity of social upheaval to drive a wedge between sections of our own society.
The working class have been largely forgotten by successive government, but to portray those pea brained racists/millwall fans as representative of the working class is a massive lie

Ive nothing agaisnt Russia, America and Uk do the same thing to different extents. Its just Russia currently have whole heartedly adopted disinfo and troll farms to a massive extend, its incredibly effective for the amount of money invested. Its probably no surprise given the fact Putin is KGB/FSB himself.

Ive tried to keep my mouth shut, but the Russian government have a very antagonistic view of the UK they think of it solely as a American outpost/military base to further western imperialism. In some ways they are correct but its quite dangerous to take what they say as gospel. Putin's motives are not good IMO

that video is from 2013 when ukraine was pursuing closer ties with the EU, mccain was flexing his diplomatic muscles cos the republicans wanted their trade and to get em nice n westernized, gas reserves nudge wink etc. that's a gross oversimplification but read up on the 2014 ukrainian revolution leading up to the annexation of crimea

RT can have value. Before they took away South African need for Russian visitor visa, I would go to the consulate and they would play RT in the waiting room. They do report on things. It is news. Except they paint Russian acts of aggression as people's liberation. Of course there is no true objective news source. I don’t trust most things. But I especially don’t ducking trust RT.

Its weird its like a mirror image of Fox news, they both do the bidding of oligarchies/kleptocracies but fox seems more aimed at domestic politics and the occasional war, where Russia Today really seems to promote Russian foreign policy

eh? have you got as far as:
A peaceful Black Lives Matter protest took place at the park earlier today. There is no suggestion that the incident is linked to any protests.
...yet? or is there another connection i'm not seeing?

It didn't happen at the BLM protest, but it's likely due to the race related tensions, or an act of terrorism.
I maybe wrong though, it could just of been a casual mass stabbing by someone with no actual motive.
