I appreciate the sentiment but isn’t that the pot calling the kettle black?

It doesn't matter. He has way more support than he should in this country, so he has to say things like this. Look at your up and down votes. Now look at the response above yours. It's anecdotal, but it is common on this site and many others. People are quick to jump on Russia propaganda, because the right-wing in this country has done it for years now.

Rogan and others push Russian propaganda at every turn. Just the other day he was condemning Ukraine for attacking Russia--referring to it as an escalation--as if Ukraine shouldn't be able to defend itself or as if Russia is off-limits. Excuse tf out of me. Since when can a country being invaded by another not be proactive in its defense, especially two years into an invasion. Many on this site say Ukraine is our enemy for God's sake. And the morons here regurgitate this nonsense as the little pawns they are. The best Kremlin asset at this stage is our country's right wing. It's insane and may be the biggest threat to America we currently know, but those responsible will never be held accountable.

There's a reason that Putin was found to be financial supporting many right wing talking heads. They are willfuly spreading his message. I'm not saying they were aware they were taking Kremlin money, but they undoubtedly were. Why did the Kremlin see their messaging as valuable to Russia? People need to be real with themselves.
