    you listen to all the sides.

    Except sides published by state media in countries you don’t like, or media that you personally have determined is false. So no you do not listen to all sides, you listen to all sides that fit your worldview. This isn’t complicated for everyone else in this thread but it’s apparently quite complicated for you

      Do you think the state media of a nation committing atrocities is going to tell you the truth about those atrocities? Do you believe Israeli denial of genocide in Gaza?

      If you do, you’re a naive tool of imperialists.

          I listen, but I don’t believe them all. You have to apply some critical thinking.

            And your version of critical thinking is “American billionaires would never use their money and influence to further their goals through media” huh?

                This you?

                Unlike Russian state media, western media is independent and not beholden to their government, but nice try.

                  Critical thinking is when I say one thing without thinking about it and then later I say a completely different thing without thinking about it
