Soferman seems to be flooding this sub with pro-western news articles. Taken en aggregate, I see it as propaganda and I think this violates the "No Propaganda" rule. I'd like to appeal to the mods to make a review.

For example: Soferman shares articles from VOA, which is US state sponsored propaganda. This, plus all of his other articles that seem to be focused on anti-russian or anti-chinese messaging with a few general interest stories sprinkled in, paints the picture of someone trying to influence users to form a specific opinion. It really feels like propaganda.

Maybe we can impose a limit to the amount of topics any one user can post per day?

I don't have the time to search out unbiased alternative perspectives unfortunately. Similar to macro issue of people who are paid to spread propaganda can devote time to influencing public opinion.

You agree that it's tough if he is the only one posting regularly right?

A subliminal accusation of paid propaganda posting is pretty uncalled for imo...
