    Also, is this some of the “tankie” content that lemmy opponents have been citing? I know this is lemmy.ml and that this may be the type of content they want here, so I hope I’m not offending anyone.

    I’ve had a lot if interaction with the type of people that would even call themselves “tankies” (semi-ironically). They usually won’t bother to post stuff straight from Sputnik, even though their opinions and sources tend not to be Ukraine friendly (to say the least, I suppose). Your criticism is more than valid, and in the circles I run in would be met with “yeah we should be doing better with our sources than direct Russian state media”. I think that your feedback is well within bounds and respectfully written, even for people who posted here before the influx.
