Can't believe official numbers from governments, can't trust journalists to provide accurate accounts (either because of bias or lack of access)...

How did we reach here? This just sucks

When could you believe numbers from authoritarian governments? We never left that station. Very few governments on global scale can be sort of trusted to not lie too much.

Could you, for example, trust Western journalists to provide accurate accounts from USSR? Or believe USSR official numbers?
