The difference between Russian and American authoritarianism
Welcome to politcal memes!
These are our rules:
Be civil
Jokes are okay, but don’t intentionally harass or disturb any member of our community. Sexism, racism and bigotry are not allowed. Good faith argumentation only. No posts discouraging people to vote or shaming people for voting.
No misinformation
Don’t post any intentional misinformation. When asked by mods, provide sources for any claims you make.
Posts should be memes
Random pictures do not qualify as memes. Relevance to politics is required.
No bots, spam or self-promotion
Follow instance rules, ask for your bot to be allowed on this community.
Woah now. I mean yes, but opposing opinions are allowed to exist.
Propaganda doesn't imply facism (elimination of opposing, or any other, opinion.)
Propaganda is monopolistic, and coming from State itself, that we could argue is different.
But the whole list in the meme has differences. Yet, the parallelism is eerily pointing to outcome similarities..
How did my comment prevent others from sharing their opinions?
I was just pointing out a key difference. I wasn't directing at you.
