    almost all russian language media throughout the world is monitored and controlled by the russian government

    I am sure you have very credible sources for this conspiracy theory, because as opposed to those stupid Russians, you know English and are capable of critical thinking, so this isn’t just something you’ve heard from totally different and very honest media and accepted to be true, so would you be so kind to share them?

    If the only language you know is russian, it’s very hard to get unbiased information

    Definitely, after all, it’s a known fact that the most popular western social platforms such as Reddit, Facebook, Discord, Instagram and previously Twitter are very open and never ban people for speaking out things that don’t agree with the current narration, as opposed to Telegram for example (where a lot of russian-speaking people communicate and get their news from), which is known to ban people based on politics. Or wait, is it actually the other way around?..
