The material doesn't need to be fake in order for the message to be propaganda. The difference between journalism and propaganda is that journlaism requires freedom and objectivity. Lancaster cannot abide to these ideals because the Kermlin will not allow criticism of Russia. We cannot know what is edited out of the videos, but we do know that Lancaster could not show anything too damning or contradicting the views of the Kremlin. The most succesful propaganda mixes truths and lies and gives only a restricted perspective to push a narative. Msm are wrong in avoiding to discuss the rise of far right extreemists in Ukrain, but at the same time this same problem is a very poor justification for the horrors we see today. There is a very small number of nazis in the ukranian army (the Azovs that Lancaster is very keenly pushing in most videos) but this group made it into the army because of the war with russia in the first place.. it makes no sense to use their presence as justification for the war..

What exactly in this video is anti-putin? There is no anti Putin sentiment, some people just refrain from giving their opinions, saying they want peace...
