Hillarious! If you don't want to view RT (Russia Today) then stop posting them!

This is absolutely freaking hilarious.
RT haters keep posting RT vids and then start complaining about everyone posting them.

Take a deep breath and maybe step away from the keyboard once in a while?

Same way we might post something from freeper site.

That's different from posting it as a serious news story.

and taken as actual, factual news...

Those complaining and posting them are showing how ridiculous RT actually is. Hopefully, to maybe open a few willfully closed eyes.

No one is complaining that RT is being posted here. They are complaining that people are accepting RT as a legitimate news source.
