      Purge the universities of Kremlin sympathizers! Scholars who say anything in the classroom that converges with the Russian view of history or politicas are enemies of the state and must not be allowed to corrupt our precious western children. Parrot US/UK perspectives!!! https://twitter.com/jessbrammar/status/1222421531235700736 …

      I had thought we were way past the point where there are still people who can't comprehend the difference between (a) defending a person's free speech right to say X and (b) defending X itself. Same with: (a) defending academic freedom to say X and (b) agreeing with X. Nope.

      Oh give me a break Glenn, you're dismissing my reporting as "parroting US/UK perspectives" while defending academics accusing the White Helmets of war crimes – don't try and wriggle out of it

      Every fake "expert" you cited works for an organization funded by Western governments, including Bellingcat (NED funded), Brookings (numerous Western govts & Qatari monarchy funded), and European diplomats themselves Your propaganda by definition echoes US/UK govt talking points

          None of the academics are funded by Russia. Same applies to large majprity of journos & activists. Compare that to your sources who are all funded by western govts urging on regime change. I think they have plenty of motive to sing for their supper

          All taxpayer funded if you trace the money all the way back to the original source. I know our Intel Agencies are at least taxpayer funded....That, along with drugs and weapons sales.
