The link you provide is from a far left outlet that praises authoritarian regimes such as China, Russia, Syria, and Venezuela.
And of course like any tankie brainrot they deny the Uyghur Genocide and other atrocities committed by these regimes.
Freedom of speech as a principle does not mean lying to the public with claiming propaganda is "anti-war" otherwise by your logic we should frame nazi ideas as just "community building".
What's wrong with blocking outlet that repeats propaganda of a state that was condemned at UN level?

... Do you think corporate outlets haven't repeated state propaganda?
Or that the US hasn't been condemned by the UN - many times?
Hmm.
I'm pretty sure US has never been condemned by the UN to the degree Russia is now. Even China and India formally acknowledged Russian aggression against Ukraine.
Also, if you are letting in some of one propaganda does it make you obligated to also let in some even worse propaganda?
The idea that you must do what someone wants you to do because if you don't you are somehow unjust or inconsistent is a known psychological manipulation technique.
Anyway - even if it were from last week, I'd fail to see the logic in your point.
What's 'doublethink' is claiming that Wikipedia "treat freedom of expression as a principle" while black-listing outlets that have never once had to retract a story as false.
