The US maintains no such list, but the UK does.

Authoritarianism is always a question of degree. The degree of it in Russia is high for political activity, but much lower then it is in China for information access. You can read whatever news you want, including foreign news critical of Russia, you can use Facebook, etc.

The population is about as brainwashed as it is here.

Sry genuinely confused which pop is brainwashed? China or did you mean the US? Also I don't think the UK should have that list. The fact that the US doesn't is a major not minor detail. I'm not trying to compare and contrast the UK and Russia, I was comparing the US and Russia.
