All News Is Propaganda

Starlink has been told by some governments (not Ukraine) to block Russian news sources. We will not do so unless at gunpoint. Sorry to be a free speech absolutist. Russian "news" resources are propaganda resources All news sources are partially propaganda, some more than others

A Twitter exchange about Starlink refusing to block Russian news sources is paired with a black-and-white image of a muscular man balancing dramatically on one hand while holding an open laptop. The joke is that Elon Musk’s claim of free-speech absolutism is undercut by the reply that all news sources are partially propagandistic, with the exaggerated acrobatic pose adding absurdity.
