The U.S. Regime’s Insidious Censorship

31 August 2025, by Eric Zuesse. (All of my recent articles can be seen here.)

Here is what I got when I Googled “pro-russian u.s. websites”:

“AI Overview

Websites promoting pro-Russian narratives in the U.S. generally do not openly brand themselves as such. Instead, they typically fall into two categories: Russian state-controlled outlets registered as foreign agents and covert disinformation campaigns run by the Russian government. These influence operations exploit existing domestic divisions and mimic legitimate news sources to deceive audiences.”

Google is a creation of the CIA and of the U.S. ‘Defense’ (Aggression) Department; Google was actively involved in the Obama Administration’s planning of the February 2014 coup that ousted Ukraine’s committedly neutralist democratically elected leader and Government and replaced it with the rabidly Russia-hating Government on Russia’s doorstep (the closest of all borders to Russia’s central command, The Kremlin, of all nations’ borders) and which promptly started beating up and executing Ukrainians who opposed the coup, and thus started the war in Ukraine, to which civil war Russia finally responded on 24 February 2022 by invading Ukraine in order to prevent the U.S. from EVER being allowed to position a nuclear missile a mere 300 miles (five-minutes of missile-flying time) away from blitz-decapitating Russia’s central command.

According to Google, pro-Russian websites come in only “two categories: Russian state-controlled outlets registered as foreign agents and covert disinformation campaigns run by the Russian government.” None are independent (such as I and almost all websites that carry my news-reports and commentaries are).

This is how stupid they think you are — you who read my articles. They think that YOU believe the U.S. regime’s lie that pro-Russian websites come in only “two categories: Russian state-controlled outlets registered as foreign agents and covert disinformation campaigns run by the Russian government.”

The reason why I am pro-Russian is that what I oppose the most of all is imperialism — international dictatorship; and there is now (and ever since 1945, and especially after 1991, has been) only a single empire in the world: the American empire — the U.S. Government and its colonies (‘allies’). They demand to ultimately achieve “hegemony”: rule over the entire world. No other nation does. No other Government does. No other regime does. ONLY the U.S. does. And it is controlled only by its billionaires and centi-millionaires (not by the American people; we widely disapprove of our rulers).

And Russia — and China — are the anti-imperialist bulwarks against this evil regime; they are DETERMINED to never become U.S. colonies — and they possess and increasingly possess, the means to achieve this — they, alone in the entire world, possess the means by which to PREVENT the U.S. regime from taking-over their countries. Ultimately, therefore, they are the proud defenders of international democracy — the sovereignty, instead of colonialism, of their own nation, and, by extension, the two nations that increasing numbers of other nations are coming to rely in order to PROTECT THEIR OWN national sovereignty, against the rapacious billionaires who control the fascist-racist-imperialist-supremacist U.S. dictatorship.

I must be clear here: I am a proud American, proud to be a follower of the most progressive group of individuals in the world, who in 1776 created (they wrote) both the U.S. Declaration of Independence from the evil British Empire, and their own — and the world’s most progressive constitution — the Constitution of the United States of America — which has been constantly Amended since then to become EVEN MORE progressive (even better) than it was before. I am an American — a follower of all of those writers of the U.S. Constitution including its Amendments. But the present rulers of my country are traitors; they violate the U.S. Constitution with impunity. They are imperialists — and that is the worst evil that exists, other than genocidists (and America’s rulers are also supporters of the genocide that the U.S. Government donates 69.5% of the weapons and all of the satellite intelligence, to Israel to carry out against the Gazan people — 2.1 million individuals, none of whom have in any way posed a national-security threat to my country). That is how evil these traitors who rule my country are.

And they are constantly trying to overthrow resistant Governments. For example, on August 29th, Brian Berletic headlined “US-Funded Riots Target Indonesia (or, NED is Alive and Well…)". And, of course, like all the others, Thailand’s Government poses no authentic national-security threat to the American people — this is yet another scheme to serve America’s billionaire mega-corporate masters. It’s a regime that endangers the entire world — tries to grab every country it can, in order to exploit and enslave yet more Governments and peoples, in the name of ‘spreading freedom and democracy’.

about how the U.S. empire uses fronts such as Bellingcat and the Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project, or OCCRP, to deceive the public to think that all news-reports that expose the U.S. empire’s evils are fronts for some ‘enemy’ nation. I would also point out that even if countries such as Russia, China, Venezuela, Palestine, Iran, North Korea, etc, WERE enemies of the United States (though instead the United States is actually an enemy of, and targets for ultimate conquest, those nations, which therefore need constantly to defend themselves from U.S. aggressions such as subversions, sanctions, and surrounding them by U.S. forces), any mere ASSUMPTION that a news-report from such a country is necessarily false, is not necessarily a true assumption; so, even if a given news-report or analysis actually IS from a nation that the U.S. targets for ultimate conquest, a rational reader will not casually dismiss it, but will consider it. The basis of all science is open-mindedness. To trust outfits such as Bellingcat and OCCRP is to trust the regime. NOTHING should be trusted; everything should instead be investigated.

Investigative historian Eric Zuesse’s latest book, AMERICA’S EMPIRE OF EVIL: Hitler’s Posthumous Victory, and Why the Social Sciences Need to Change, is about how America took over the world after World War II in order to enslave it to U.S.-and-allied billionaires. Their cartels extract the world’s wealth by control of not only their ‘news’ media but the social ‘sciences’ — duping the public.Eric’s Substack is a reader-supported publication.
