    Have you ever doubted a claim made about Russia based on anonymous sources in your life? Name one

    What? Sorry, I don’t understand. Plus, what does my opinion have to do with anything? I’m not an expert on… anything lol

      There are many other stories about Russia that have gotten Snopes approval that relied on the exact same kind of sourcing from AP, Reuters, NYT, Guardian, BBC, France24, all the main shit that has a veneer of legitimacy which gets rated positively by the orgs that give articles disinformation ratings. You know, Apple News filler.

      Snopes is a ridiculous website.
