The people who are cheering this on today, will be crying about it when it happens to them tomorrow!!!

[cantflipforship]

This is actually more scary than anything

[jackthisout]

It shows that big tech has too much power, which is the really scary thing. Who rules this place?

[adee]

Deplatform that’s the answer to everything around here

[liverpools]

Interesting. What sanctions did the US get put on them after flying across the world to invade a the region?

[coryCuc]

Uhh, how about we not "block" ANYONE's speech? Crazy concept I know.

[everypitchcounts]

Uhhh what happen to freedom of the press?

[philliphudson]

So the politicians cannot sort the situation, so hand it over to big tech and its billionaires.This power shift is very, very scary.

It's good to know that the commenters are so easily seeing the bigger picture of what is going on here, and big tech should realize that people are not just complaining when it is happening to them alone.

I only pressed the like button because Kim was on the show. I still disagree with big tech though 😕

[CiabanItReal]

The creation and promotion of National Social Networks in response to the international crackdown is a really good point by Kim.

It seems a lot of people are happy to be shielded from knowing what the other side thinks . Putin's speech has just over 1M views almost a week into a conflict where tens and hundreds of millions of people have strong opinions about what's going on.

This story should be a warning to you all. look what happened in Canada. If you don't act or even say what they want you to do, you're next

[vtwright]

there's good stuff on tik tok, like people learning to make molotov cocktails. What could possibly go wrong?

[fotisfotis]

Where are all the cancel culture warriors now???

[chestermann]

Agree with the guest. You get very useful information from your adversary's press. No need to spy in effect.

[Meattemple]

Ryan please get that tattoo on your face removed that says "punch me" its very distracting to the rest of us.👍

RT is still broadcasting live on YouTube

[UtubeMyAccountName]

It doesn't matter if "regular" people have accurate information? Then does it matter if "regular" people have any information at all?

We live in a society wit a representative government, meaning the "regular" people are the ones who decide who gets to make decisions in their name. One might argue it would be helpful to have accurate information when making such a decision.

Shame on big tech for their censorship
