When it’s posted by the same bunch of clowns 24/7, then it’s propaganda. They clearly have an agenda which isn’t in America’s best interest. We have our own problems to contend with that require our focus and money.

“When it’s posted by the same bunch of clowns 24/7, then it’s propaganda”

That’s a Logical Fallacy. Specifically an Ad Hominem fallacy.

Attacking an argument because of who made the argument does not invalidate the argument. Not at all.

“They clearly have an agenda which isn’t in America’s best interest.”

This is a propaganda technique called an Appeal to Fear.

“We have our own problems to contend with that require our focus and money.”

This is also a propaganda technique. Perhaps more than one. In any case Whataboutism covers this.

So you accuse USA-FRANCE of posting propaganda yet your comment is wholly absent of any constructive content and instead utilizes known logical fallacy and propaganda techniques to further your own agenda.

Three sentences packed with a punch! I will say, well done!

You’re absolutely correct. I don’t care if they want to post their little Ukraine stories from questionable sources, but there are just so many of them clogging FR.

For example, it feels like we’re getting updates on Russian egg prices hourly. We didn’t have nearly this amount of stories when U.S. egg prices skyrocketed last year. We’ve got these obsessive little weirdos doing everything they can to dominate this American site with their garbage.

They’re not interested in rational discussions.

They want control.
