This anon has been after RT forever. Although he never balks when WAPO, NYTs, Huffpost, Axios, politico, etc when posted or they get into the notables. He’s trying to insinuate something, but he can’t talk about Russia collusion, otherwise it would be too obvious, because he shills and shills are experts on NGOs…kek

Do you know Bellincat is an NGO owned by the CIA just like 1000s of other NGOs run by our State Dept to enact color revolutions around the world.

Anti-RT-anon why don’t you research the 1000s of other NGOs run by the WW DS and post about them.

I find their articles mostly reporting what other American and WW media says in theirs. They actually quote others like almost every media does. But I post their reporting on the Ukraine operation and other EU happenings because every other outlets tells the story as anti russian outlets and I find their articles somewhat objective.

I will continue to post RT because their articles and even the Opeds, give a different and in my opinion, more balanced version. They even allow criticism of the Russian govt.But remember this anons, the world would not know as much as we do about biolabs if RT and the Russian Gov didn’t release it.

Everything needs to be read with a clear mind and discrimination, we don’t ban outlets because their stuff is bullshit and mostly manipulated.

Anon let go of whatever “evil you project” that RT is an NGO, which is a non government organization. When it comes right down to it, all media is supposed to be NGOs and rarely are they.

So I will keep on posting articles from them, further they have a unique ability to reduce down the article to the basics with 6-10 paragraphs, which makes for easy reading. Of course we should use the gift of critical reasoning anons have developed, when reading any news org articles.

US-Chilean journalist describes torture in Ukrainian prison

Gonzalo Lira has reappeared three months after his arrest by the SBU

Chilean-American blogger Gonzalo Lira, arrested by the Ukrainian intelligence in May on charges of pro-Russian sympathies, reappeared online on Monday and told a sordid tale of beatings and extortion while awaiting a show trial.

“I was tortured in two of the four cells I was in—by the other prisoners=,”

Lira posted in a 25-tweet thread on Monday evening, noting that all thetorture in the pre-trial detention center (SIZO) was outsourced to the inmates.

“I got a cracked rib in my first cell, but it wasn't too bad. The worst stretch was in my fourth cell. From 1pm on June 21 until 7pm the next day—30 hours” two inmates tortured him and at one point “==used a toothpick to scratch the whites of my left eye,

==, while asking me if I could still read if I had just one,” Lira wrote.

One of the torturers was allegedly reprimanded for bruising the 55-year-old blogger’s chest, because theinstructions were to leave no marks.

Lira posted photographs of the documents laying out the charges against him, suggesting that he was beingimprisoned over social media posts and YouTube videos. He said the one video in particular that got the authorities’ attention was “Ukraine: A Primer,” his explanation of the background of the current conflict with Russia, which blamed Kiev for provoking it.

According to Lira, he was beaten and tortured because the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) figured it couldextort him for all his savings – amounting to some $100,000when factoring in the confiscated computers and phones.

Told he would be found guilty and sentenced to 5-8 years in a labor camp at his upcoming trial, Lira decided to flee Ukraine and seek asylum in Hungary.

“I’m posting this thread just as I'm getting to the border checkpoint,” he tweeted. “If you don't hear from me in the next 12 hours—whelp! I'm on my way to a labor camp! Wish me luck.”

He credited the Chilean embassy for any care he received in jail, noting that the US embassy “called me three times, but gave me nothing but ‘support’—empty bromides.” He also suggested that the US would extradite him back to Ukraine,because Acting Deputy Secretary of State Victoria Nuland “hates my guts, or so I’m told.”

The SBU detained Lira on May 1, accusing him of “producing and distributing materials justifying the armed aggression” of Russia. A judge ordered him to stay in jail pending trial. The first time the SBU detained Lira, in April 2022, he was released without charges after a week, presumably due to public pressure.

So the baker is the anon that said RT was an NGO or is AnonRT is saying this post is filtered.

Too bad if so, a very very interesting video! Enjoy anons. Interesting as I think Ukraine was pressured to let him go. And he should skeddadle

>>19276044

No worries anon, we all have been trained on reason and dissecting propaganda, the one thing that was beaten into my head when I came here in Jan 2018,and I thank God for those generous Old anons and autists that gave a nobody, that didn’t know much or have the training I have today. I learned from my elders, and its one of the reasons I love the nightshift so much, although the dayshift has plenty of wise anons.

I have an extreme bias toward the leaders of China, I’m still trying to make sure I’m objective about that subject. But the more research I read and do leads me to believe, my concepts are correct about China.

We all work towards perfection and it is hard based on what we have been trained since entering grade school to hate Russia and Russians. But I fortunately studied Ukraine from late 2013 up through the operation. So I knew much more then most and what to look for, so if there is a party that is wrong in this scenario I don’t doubt its Ukraine.

>>19276088

I was there that day also and I posted voluminous articles from RT that revealed a lot on biolabs, who cares who came first. The data is out there for all to see, and Clandestine posts many of the charts of Russia. Does it matter if the chicken or egg came first. Clandestine got banned on day one from twitter.

I don’t understand why this is a problem to reveal various sources including RT.

As far as you filtering the article on Lira, its a shame because its very good info to have. But if you filtered it, that means you don’t have to see it right.

It’s an important article you may consider “if its nominated” to put it in notables. Although thats not my goal.

>>19276010

Agreed anon, based on Lira’s own youtube video posted, its reliable

>>19276149

The whole story conforms with what we know about Ukraine. Early on they needed soldiers so bad they let out the most violent criminals from their prisons

>>19276370

I’ve never noticed them

How 'Sound of Freedom' Box Office Compares to 'Barbie' and 'Oppenheimer'

By Jamie Burton On 7/24/23

The numbers are in for July's summer blockbuster movies, but how does the surprise hit Sound of Freedom compare with the newly released Barbie and Oppenheimer?

Moviegoers have been anticipating the release of Greta Gerwig's Barbie and Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer for months now, and both have performed spectacularly at the box office on their opening weekend. However, the beginning of July brought glowing headlines for Sound of Freedom which surprised industry forecasters with an outstanding result at the box office.

Sound of Freedom, released on July 4, 2023, has made the news recently for multiple viral videos and stories from viewers who say they were unable to watch the film at theaters for a number of reasons. AMC Theatres has faced backlash despite the CEO Adam Aron saying no one is "suppressing" people from seeing the film, while the producers of Sound of Freedom told Newsweek they're thankful for AMC's support.

On multiple days in July, Sound of Freedom shocked many by outperforming international blockbustersIndiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny and Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One at the box office.

Sound of Freedom wrestled back the number one spot from the latest Mission: Impossible movie on Thursday July 20, the day before Barbie and Oppenheimer were released, according to numbers from Box Office Mojo.This is especially impressive given it was Sound of Freedom's 17th day in movie theaterswhile the seventh Mission: Impossible movie had been in theaters for just nine days.

Even now, as Barbie and Oppenheimer have taken over the top two spots at the box office, Sound of Freedom's popularity has helped it take third place ahead of Tom Cruise and Harrison Ford's respective movies for the weekend of July 21-23.

Sound of Freedom has made a total gross of $124,433,512 to date, and earned $19,825,575 over the July 21-23 weekend. It has only received a domestic release, so all of that money has come from North America alone.

Barbie and Oppenheimer, which both released worldwide on July 21, have already outperformed Sound of Freedom.

Oppenheimer has taken in a domestic opening weekend gross of $82,455,420, but a worldwide intake of $180,413,420. Barbie has earned even more with $162,022,044 domestically, and a worldwide figure of $356,322,044. Mission: Impossible - Dead Reckoning Part One earned $19,354,511 for the July 21-23 weekend, as it slipped down to fourth place, giving it a worldwide gross of $370,707,980 to date. The fifth Indiana Jones grossed $6,678,501, for a cumulative $335,910,994 after three weeks of release. All figures are according to Box Office Mojo as of July 25.

While it appears as if Barbie and Oppenheimer have already smashed Sound of Freedom's box office achievements in their opening weekend alone, the starting points for each should be taken into consideration.

Sound of Freedom had a budget of $14.5 million, according to The Wall Street Journal. With its current Box Office figures, Sound of Freedom has already made more than ten times its budget back.

To achieve the same measurement of success, Oppenheimer, with a $100 million budget, would have to take in over $1 billion at the box office, while Barbie with a reported budget between $128-$145 million, would have to earn over $1.28-$1.45 billion.

Both targets are attainable for the movies, but it would be the highest grossing movie in the careers of both Nolan and Gerwig.

While Sound of Freedom's numbers have dipped, the movie's release has still been considered a success for its domestic box office alone.

The movie is based on the real life of former Homeland Security special agent Tim Ballard (played by Jim Caviezel). The plotline follows Ballard as he sets up Operation Underground Railroad (O.U.R.), an anti-child-trafficking organization.

Former President Donald Trump recently voiced his approval for the film after he hosted a screening at his golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey. He called the movie "unbelievable," adding, "It's something that I'm not sure if you're supposed to enjoy or learn, it's a combination, but that was a great movie. Now I understand why it's doing so well.

"It's setting records by the way, it's eating the biggest movies out there, they have some of the big summer blockbusters and this is knocking the socks off of them. So that's pretty good."
