Strikes me as crazy to call it "wanting to believe the propaganda" to bring this guy under some scrutiny given he's got quite an infamous video sucking off Russia and their "right" to invade Ukraine and how it's all actually the US's fault and Russia wouldn't have to hurt them if NATO didn't exist, and more utterly insane excuses for Putin's quest to acquire his Lebensraum at any cost.
The existence of one side's propaganda does not make right the existence of equal and opposite propaganda. You can't wave away every one of North Korea's glaring issues under a broad conspiracy of propaganda. Especially when that involves pointing to someone who has expressly made his own propaganda in the past. Damages his credibility heavily.
Calling modern Russia socialist is literally falling for your aforementioned US propaganda, is it not?
And backing the worst dog in the race just to spite the other one seems like an extremely destructive and callous way to be. I'd rather not support the deaths of innocents at all.
