• The real reason is because France is being kicked out of Africa so they have to turn inwards and colonize their own people.

    The more African countries free themselves from the shackles of French imperialism, the worse it will get for the average French. Then it would be very easy to sell them the next war for them to needlessly die in.

    French officials daring the population to bring out the guillotines? Time is a flat circle.

      It is not propaganda, it is only labeled like that because of the empire’s need to discredit it

        Kind of like how they attempt to discredit Europe’s extremely reasonable concerns about Russia (conswidering they’ve been bombing the shit out of ukraine for a couple of years?) starting a war by calling it a “fantasy”?

        It’s complete bullshit, some facts are portrayed completely out of proportion and it has a clear propaganda bias.

          As opposed to what? What sources do you use that don’t portray any facts out of proportion or have any bias?

          Friend, where are you getting your facts to compare it to? Empire controlled outlets. You can not say that a certain fact is or is not being blown out of proportion when the other source for a fact can’t be trusted

            I’m a military OSINT analyst, I know how to do source analysis. Russia Today is one of the worst propaganda sources out there.

              For which military? A western military? Yeppers, im sure they trained you to do proper source analysis! Not like they have any incentive to alter the training to disadvantage certain sources that just so happens to go against western narratives nosir! Sure they have done a whole lot of evil things, but not ensuring their rank and file are properly trained on source analysis is where they absolutely draw the line 😁 🙄

      I wish I knew where to bet on the fact that if Ukraine has a complete collapse and an unconditional surrender half of you libs will go “these Russian bots lol have fun when Ukraine unveils their gambit and kills the entire Russian government and are celebrated as heroes by everyone in the country”

        Why would I laugh about Russian bots spreading nazi propaganda. Also, what Ukrainian collapse? Right now the chances of Russia having a complete collapse is bigger than Ukraine.
