It is a Gulag nation.
No opposition to the deep-state in the Kremlin is allowed!
All Russian press MUST be pro Government… or else…

It is NOT true. In Russian DUMA there is 3 opposition parties as I may recall right away. Commie party, LDPR, Justice Party and few small I don’t remember. The ruling party is “United Russia”.
SO the opposition is NOT forbidden. BUT the foreign agents as opposition are forbiden. SO any political party or organization in Russia must NOT take a foreign money or be under influence from abroad.
That is a main grievance coming from West. Westerns can NOT influence Russia using money or otherwise. Also after West became hostile toward Russia. Russia forbade and kicked out all western-run organizations from her territory as unfriendly. Also rise up outcry from West even more.
But I don’t think all done isn’t well-deserved by West.

It is NOT true either. But press must NOT take foreign money for its running or they become foreign agents. And will not close them right away BUT they must mark any their materials with logo “created by foreign agents”.
Also if press catched lying then they will be very fined as the outlet and a journalist. SO some switched to AD-antiAD method of propaganda. DO you what is it?
AD-AntiAD method is when they tell facts but do very selection of them. SO if they select only positive facts then they get AD propaganda. If negative then they get AntiAD propaganda.
