Continuing the story of the "stolen" grain. Farmers from southern Ukraine SELL last year's harvest to Russia.

Would you care to list examples of said propaganda in Western mainstream media concerning the situation in Ukraine since 24th February 2022? Ideally with an explanation as to why it is "fake propaganda"? (Is it fake news, or is it propaganda, btw?)
Fake news aimed at forming a one-sided public opinion is not fake propaganda?
And yes, I will not list it here, spare my time. Western media rely on Ukrainian sources, which since 2014 have succeeded in distribution lies.

I find it unreasonable to believe that all the different and independent news outlets in 193 independent different jurisidictions world wide are telling fake news and propaganda, while Russia with its purely state-controlled media is telling the truth.
Unfortunately, in the modern Western world of Gigemon and Vassals, there is no independent point of view. I hope there is no need to explain who is who.
In Russia, there are state media and opposition media. I think that it is not necessary to explain whose interests and money are worked out by the latter.
One question though: Do you believe that Russia and Ukraine are at war?
Russia is leading a Special Military Operation in Ukraine, just like in Georgia in 2008, only here additional tasks appeared regarding neo-Nazis (Some of which are now hiding in the vault of the steel plant in Mariupol). This time the West better get your puppets ready. Russia does not claim the resources or territories of Ukraine (except probably the territory of the LPR and DPR), which was officially announced.
According to Ukraine, it has been at war with Russia since 2014.

To be clear though, the problem is not just in who is saying what (although that matters), but also what the sources are and how reliable/biased they might be.
When two sides in conflict report the same incident in different ways, it is up to the reader without insider knowledge to examine the sources, decide their relative credibilities and make a judgement call. It is hardly ever fully black or white, but rather a case of deciding the appropriate shade of grey.
Sometimes both can be factually true but may have spin through omission. As an example:
Version 1: The Moskva sinking was caused by Ukrainian-launched missiles.
Version 2: The Moskva sank while on tow in a storm after a serious onboard fire.
The versions can both be strictly true, yet version 2 is intended to *imply* that version 1 is false.
Regarding the incident with the cruiser "Moskva".Ukrainian media and political figures stated that the cruiser was attacked by "Neptune" missiles and sank, although at that time it was still afloat and the struggle to save the ship continued. Even the Pentagon could not confirm the attack by Ukrainian missiles.
