Similar story here. Got banned from world news.ml on my first or second day for calling out russian/chinese govt talking points. Their go to is, "all western media is a lie, heres what glorious china has to say. At worst, the truth 'Lies in the Middle' TM."
On reddit id say its worse. Post api changes, all the left leaning communities got absolutely hijacked. Places that prided themselves on no bans were banning anyone not regurgitating russian propaganda or "noo vooting" rubbish.
