  1. SOCIAL MEDIA IS USED BY WEST GOVERNMENTS TO USE MASS PROPAGANDA SO ITS GOOD RUSSIA DID WE LOVE RUSSIA LONG LIVE RUSSIA AN I SAY THAT TRULY THE WEST CIA ARE RASCIST SATANIC AGENDA NATZIS

  2. I would support US/EU provide free VPN to any IP originating from Russia

  3. All sources of news outlets and social media should banned from earth , politicians have corrupted this forms of information and used this information outlets to create narratives to sue there own agendas. Russia 🇷🇺 is doing there people a favor by getting read of this platforms , what have they contribute to society as a hole ? In my opinion nothing. For the creator of this platform is a business for the users a addiction. Good job Russia 🇷🇺💪🏼

  4. In the USA, social media censors anyone who disagrees with the CIA talking points.

  5. These big tech guys sound like robots. Weirdoes think they rule the world from their laptops

  6. The American and the CCP have held talks for seven hours these days. What are they talking about? That is, the CCP sold Putin of Russia, and China and the United States began to cooperate again. The United States clamored to sanction the CCP, but in fact it began to appease again for the sake of profit. Do you understand? Chinese companies have begun to accept corporate scrutiny from the United States, diplomacy has begun to turn, and the CCP’s internal propaganda has begun to say how many military facilities Russia has annihilated, and it has begun to cut itself off from Russia. America, is your justice built on interests? You are raising tigers and planting a big bomb for the future of America and the world.

  7. China has shut Russians off of TikTok? Well kids, China has decided to side with Russian authoritarianism, has sided opposite the Russian people, which of course is their ultimate objective. I will not join TikTok for other previous reasons, after hearing this I will berate my friends for their tiktok use and encourage as many as will to drop that app today. Face it, they will be throwing nukes sooner or later. Stand up for what is right, without fear.

  8. "Call on the Lord in the day of trouble
    and He will deliver you."
               Psalm 50 : 15

  9. That's why Vladimir Putin still has a Twitter account. But no more mean tweets amirite

  10. Nice video!! Very engaging from the beginning to the END., I'm new to crypto trade and I have been making huge losses but recently see a lot of people earning from it. Can someone please tell me what to do.

  11. All have sinned and fall short of the glory of God

    the rightousness of God is available through faith in Jesus Christ.

    there is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.

    in Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgivness of sins according to the riches of His grace.

  12. The question is: Why Joe Biden is attacking Vladimir Putin now talking the he is one war criminal? Simply because Joe Biden is trying better your political evaluation toward your own followers and why no towards the rest of the world. Joe Biden is the worst US president that appeared since last century and your administration is being the worst administration between all. Observe the last poll about Joe Biden rejection.💥💥💥💥💥

  13. Why should I care? american social platforms censors free speech all the time

  14. Why should Russia be denied the garbage conspiracy laden media platforms enjoyed by Americans?

  15. I can’t hide the feeling anymore as 👆👆 has given me so much reasons to believe in his work, he just send me a hack transfer of $400,000,000

  16. I can’t hide the feeling anymore as 👆👆 has given me so much reasons to believe in his work, he just send me a hack transfer of $400,000,000

  17. WTF are these stupid apps? App addiction? I don't even have a 'can you hear me now-personal tracking device. People can't THINK for themselves. And you can STILL see RT in the U$. Gooble isn't the only toad in the pond. I watch RT for real news every morning and then U$ WAR Propaganda during the day.
    UNBLIEVEABLE my country's THICK propaganda for a new MICorpratocracy WAR. That comedian wants to drag us into WWIII. #IDONTSUPPORTUKRAINENAZIS

  18. Would VPN and web browser web apps help?

  19. Russia people are not stupid they understand a lot they just like to lie a lot but they just can't say anything they have to be a quiet 🤐 puppet like good people or Putin will blow up everyone or throw them in jail for years to come Russian people are BRAIN WASHED it's sad!!

  20. They are better off without it just like we will be better off without NBC

  21. I thought these social media companies were criticized for misinformation just a few weeks ago? so which is it?

  22. I've never heard of Slack

  23. When u re using Ur social platforms for politics why would other countries not in line with you allow these services in their countries, don't bring Politics into everything, today even sports that suppose to unite is shamelessly dividing countries due to politics

  24. DOES VPN NOT WORK ANYMORE 🤔

  25. Shouting out about Russian propaganda, the media broadcast Ukrainian military propaganda non-stop. For the most part, this is a deliberate lie, like Russia is demanding denazification.
    These are all Russian peace terms, you can find them on Reuters site.
    Why can't Zelensky agree with this, but wants us and the Russians to throw nuclear warheads at each other?
    1. Change constitution to enshrine neutrality
    2. Acknowledge Crimea as Russian
    3. Recognize Donetsk and Lugansk
    This must be stopped before it's too late. Zelensky will pay our lives because he or people who control him want nuclear warheads to fly over Ukraine, not into them.
    Ukrainians expose their people to Russian bombs because it is their only chance to win.

  26. Ukrainians want to pay not with their lives, but with ours, in order to defeat Russia. They desperately want to survive, and their only chance is when nuclear warheads fly over Ukraine, not into them. Look up!

  27. A better world is coming! 😀😀 Jehovah God's Kingdom ruled by Christ Jesus will solve all global problems and restore the planet and faithful humans back to perfection! Matt 6:9,10 Psalm 83:18

  28. PALM BEACH (The Borowitz Report)—Donald J. Trump has reached out to Vladimir Putin to help Russia file for bankruptcy, the former U.S. President has confirmed.

    Calling the Russian economy “in very, very bad, terrible shape” as a result of Western sanctions, Trump said that bankruptcy was “quite frankly” Putin’s only option.

    “Bankruptcy is scary the first time you do it,” Trump said. “But once you’ve done it five or six times it’s the easiest and most beautiful thing in the world.”

    Trump said that “the first thing Putin should do is stop paying his bills, and that’s something I can show him how to do.”
    The former President also offered to send his son-in-law, Jared Kushner, to Moscow to advise the Russian Federation on bankruptcy.

    “No one can get you into bankruptcy faster than Jared,” Trump boasted.

  29. RUSSIANS know what's going on…..

  30. “I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you.”
    — God, Genesis 12:3
