"The Western media is not putting out disinformation so much as focusing on the things that benefit them."
What do you mean - Western media doesn't lie, only shifts focus? Sorry that is just flat out wrong. The last couple of years should have tought you that.
"This moral relativism is the problem with the 'free speech' advocates. There is something as the 'truth' and, some parties are better at communicating it."
Um no sorry, your type of thinking is exactly the problem. There is no neutral way to establish truth, so nobody should be given the authority to say what is true or not.
"Both of these statements are essentially wrong."
People believe stupid shit - the solution is not to establish some "authority" forcing people to believe just some stupid shit.
The Trump fans may seem stupid for believing Biden stole the election, but his opponents were equally stupid for believing in the Russian collusion theory. Yet that was relentlessly pushed by mainstream media.
"This is why 'Putins words alone' can be dangerous."
Yeah because Russians have no other news sources. That is exactly why it is bad to limit access to news sources, as DDG is doing indirectly.
"it speaks to the fact that people aren't often even interested in the truth at all, but rather that which makes them feel better."
So DDG is just trying to make us feel better?
"Nothing is being hidden or censored, it's all there if you actively search for it."
That is such a hypocritical claim. Given all your arguments, you seem to be fully aware that that is not how information flow works.
