With 5 insane criteria, the University of Alberta named Aaron a top Russian-influenced Twitter account. His offenses? Doing things like “promoting general mistrust in institutions and elites.” He proudly accepts the award.

Nice scientism. They can't refute any of the criticisms made against NATO, Western elites, Turdeau, Neocons, etc., so instead they prattle about approaches, methodology, and data.
Aaron is a russian bot
Ahahah ban free thoughts and discovery..
I think the invasion probably was justified. The Russian one, not the US Ukrainian coup.
How many times do the knuckleheads have to be proven wrong before they realize they were wrong and Aron Mate was absolutely right.
aaron is one of our finest journalists , maybe the finest.
It's true. Another fascist like Dore that wants Republicans in power
"It made me feel I was doing a good job" UN Inspector Falk (Jewish), after being listed by the Apartheid regime as the third most anti-Semitic person in the world.
Congrats, join the club brother. Your now a child of papa Putin. Spend your imaginary Roubles wisely. I'm ashamed of Canada. Although I do disagree with Aaron, I believe Russia is justified. They were obliged to protect the Russians in Donbass, or it would of been a massacre of ethnic Russians. 14,000 already dead and the right out acknowledgement by Ukrain that they were preparing to massively attack Donbass. Tell me what Russias choices were? Watch the slaughter as they have for 8 years or defend the people of Donbass. I believe Russia did the only thing they could. You can't negotiate with nato/nazi ideology for ever while the killing continued by Ukrainian Nazis.
Oxford book of exile. A part about a couple dudes making it back to Poland. "I never let anybody go before." The letter from the Irish general in France is amazing also

"A general mistrust of institutions and elites" is like the most fundamentally American thing i can think of. Geezus, these people.
Aaron doesn't like Putin, or support Putin's war.
Aaron is now the Kremlin King. Congrats
Comrad Mate', congrats… you have arrived!
You do realise that Alberta Canada has one of the largest populations of Ukranian expats in the world all mainly who fled the Ukraine in the late 1800's and early 1900's from Russian and or other european power aggression so I suspect they are just a little better informed on the history and latest information .
So criticising Trudeau….who by the way is an utter twat; is now "sympathising with Russia? By that logic, supporting Trudeau must mean you support radical islamism?
That guy might work for the University of Alberta, but point five, about mistrusting the Liberal government, strongly implies that he isn't from Alberta.
Well done mate, congratz!
Surprised 'liking Russian blues cats' isn't cited.
How can NATO call itself a "defensive military alliance", if they don't have enough "defensive" weapons to equip Ukraine? I mean, Russia was their Primary Adversary the whole time. The "secondary adversaries" were just Bombed to Hell. That doesn't sound all too defensive either.
Haha Get em Buzzsaw!!!😊
Congratulations! 🤭
I knew who you were and admired your work before this list came out, I'd seen you on other people that I follow's videos and you spoke a lot of sense, but after Medhurst posted a video about this I found your channel and subscribed, I knew your name but not this channe,l but luckily when I typed your name in it led me here. Hopefully many others have done the same as me and this stupid study has backfired.
Well, you guys have been the perfect mouthpieces for the Kremlin, just like the msm has been the perfect mouthpieces for the warhawks in the US. That's what happens when you base your entire argument on contrarianism instead of doing real reporting
Jeezus between you and our Justin Canada is a NET world influencer ! Yay we win.
The NATO "aggression" take is trash and taints you. That stink will always be on you.
the u of a is a cesspool, just throw it off Aaron
Sounds like they should be gunning for Professor John J. Mearsheimer.
and what about the pope?
I don’t understand how Aaron can know all, or nearly all the factors that precipitated the Russian SMO and still think that it was unjustified. Is it self preservation?
LMFAO hey that sounds like a badge of honor to me!
I expected this type of stuff from the Soviet era in the Soviet Union, not from the so called "free west".
