Gosh, it is almost like the people behind RT has an axe to grind against the United States by the hateful way they cover American news.  They just prove that Russia still considers itself America's enemy for otherwise it wouldn't spend the money to beam into America such stuff.  Americans will now associate their thoughts of Russia with their thoughts of the Occupy movement and Americans don't like the Occupy movement. If there is a new Cold War between the US and Russia (and you can tell from RT there obviously is) you started it.  Too bad, we really did have high hopes for you.

Let' s put(in) it this way:

 Go sh, it is almost like the people behind CNN has an axe to grind against the Russia by the hateful way they cover Russian news.  They just prove that US still considers itself Russia's enemy for otherwise it wouldn't spend the money to beam into Russia such stuff.  Russians will now associate their thoughts of Americans with their thoughts of the pro western neo nazi comunist antirussia movement and Russians don't like the pro western neo nazi comunist antirussian movement.

If you think we are going to allow freaks like them to bring down the greatest society in human existence, you have another thing coming.  I find it interesting though how differently RT protray protesters in the US compared to those in Russia.  The Russian protestors are actually average Russians with legitimate fear of KGB Putin becoming a dictator.  

St eve should read the Washington Post or the New York Times recent articles on the anti-Putin protests in Russia. While these articles are careful to leave out the fact that many of them are associated with the communist and leftist opposition, the articles do recognize that the so-called pro-Western liberals (after bringing Russia in the 1990s to an edge of collapse) have their popularity in low single digits. However, the other chunk of the anti-Putin opposition--per these articles themselves--is made of the ultranationalists and neo-Nazis. And here a very interesting and peculiar thing comes into play. Both the NYT and the Washington Post basically say and advise this: Well, the neo-Nazis are not the nicest people to invite to a party, but, hey, they are organized and they hate Putin just like we do. So, supposedly out of convenience, if not out of some darker underlying principle, these U.S. media say in laying out the strategy that the "liberal" allies of the U.S in Russia must and shall hook up ourselves to those dark forces [the neo-Nazis]. Of course, in the name of the so-called "freedom," which John Ellis has so brilliantly unmasked in this discussion forum.

Occupy Wall Street --- Freewill equality In order for everyone to have a freewill, no one must have a desire to enrich himself upon the misery of another. For that is evil, a crime in any fair and just society. But in order to willingly give up the greater pleasure of evil, for the lesser pleasure of doing only good, one must know for a fact that the ultimate conclusion of evil is misery. For a freewill is one that has unlimited freedom to pursue the greatest pleasure possible. And if there was the slightest hope that one would not end in misery by enjoying the greater pleasure of doing evil, logically a freewill would always go for evil. Therefore, the only purpose of this world if to reach the ultimate conclusion of evil, so that never again will we be fooled into being selfish or doing evil. Whereupon, all things will turn toward the good.
Excellent and sobering. John Ellis offered here a perfect rendering of what is usually actually meant when people in the U.S. talk about freedom. He hit the bull's eye.
