Do you lot just listen to Dimitri Peskov on Russia Today these days?

No? Also a right-wing outlet is not comparable to state-owned media

And when has offering a platform to hate preachers ever worked to stop the hate they preach?

It doesn't work when the entire point of Fox News is to create a dog eat dog world in the name of profit, but being extremely careful of never uttering the phrase "Kill the Jewish Gays".

I know that, I don't know what you are trying to say though.

That you should devote more energy towards decrying the absolute state the United States is in before you cry about the mote in Canada's (or really, anybody elses) eyes.

And why would I care about the United States when we are talking about CANADA. You keep fixating on the US when this is about Canada.
