Avid reader however my first post.
Not so much a conspiracy rather a question.
What is the big hatred in the western media towards Russia? I know they're not innocent in many things but I find it entirely sickening the way the russian people are portrayed.
I mean yes there is obvious issues with LGBT and to a smaller extent racism from select few but I'm yet to meet anybody from Russia who is anything like we are led to believe. The country itself is portrayed in such a negative light, which just isn't the case.
If anything the UK and the US are worse led IMO.
{Ed033's Note - Russia aren't doing everything perfectly exactly as the zionist faction wants, so they'll continue to be demonised until by some means that changes imo.

Same deal for China, no, they’re not perfect (who is?) but having lived here for the last ten years, I can say that there are aspects of China I really appreciate and enjoy and feel the western world should emulate. Certainly, the fear mongering in the west about the great dragon from the east rising up to destroy western lives is ridiculous. For the most part, people here are, pleasant, down to earth, enjoy a beer and a chat and just wanna earn some money to support their families. No bogeymen, no mafia lurking around every corner, no shady government forces heavy-handedly putting down the masses.
Instead it tries and often succeeds in being a very civil society. some things still frustrate me, the bureaucracy for one is atrocious, and the media is almost as down on the west as the west is about china but mostly people just get on and I can say that even with a biased media, people are still very welcoming of foreigners.

{Ed033's Note - Typically, imo where ever you are on Earth, people just want some money to support their families and want to be left alone to get on with their lives but government bureaucracy gets in the way.
Since 1976 there have been a total of 17 US federal government shutdowns. last one was October 2013. It's a pity more governments don't shut down more often and for longer until we get a permanent shut down.

to be fair, Russia don't really do that much bad, when it comes to other countries, their laws are a bit backwards. but least they don't invade country after country. unlike some.

Least they have a long history with Crimea Ed. the US and Britain are hardly in any position to damn Russia about Crimea when we invade countless countries.

{Ed001's Note - long history of invasion and meddling! How does that make it ok? It is like giving Scotland its independence then 10 years later England invades it then justifies it by saying 'but we have a long history with them'. Britain could use that excuse about half the world. Sorry but there is no excuse for empirical conquest. It is about greed.}

i wasn't trying to justify it ed lol. I was just saying, they have fought for that place for ages (wrongly, I may add) but what I was getting at, is that the US and Britain are hardly in any place to condemn Russia when they are the worst countries for meddling and destroying places.

{Ed001's Note - they are all the same. They all criticise each other for doing what they would do if they could. They are just hypocrites.}

Everyone's always scared of the other side because its demonised. Russian state tv is full of anti western stuff yet you come over to the west and everyone is normal. As the editor said its all hypocrisy.
