Russia to restrict Facebook access for 'censoring' its media

Russia has a population of a 140 million people.

It is utterly preposterous to believe not a single one uses Reddit AND doesn't agree with their government.

Not to mention, where do you think those people would go?

Maybe Reddit? Maybe that actually makes a ton of sense?

Did you see what's going on r/Russia? You can be banned not for your comment there but for the fact you are on another subreddit. No, not for your comment there! It's enough that others are against the Russian invasion.

I believe this subreddit is extremely harmful. Example:

https://www.reddit.com/r/russia/comments/t1ya3b/memo_to_the_...

Is there a way to stop it? This is propaganda in the open.

This is typical in reddit, never liked it, but it's not something they invented.

I'm confused; where did I say I believed literally zero people from Russia who also disapprove of Putin use Reddit? I said I assume that to be the case, which is foundationally different; I don't know of a way to tell which is which, so in order to predict outcomes most accurately, I default to the position that I don't accept Reddit as a source for this.
