When I see things like that I always like to see what kind of website this is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al_Mayadeen
It is argumentum ad hominem. Imo, doesn't matter what site is it. If the site has a bad reputation just check sources twice but do not reject the article just because the site. That's how I see it.
There is never going to be a case where the world misses the answer to the ultimate question of life, the universe, and everything because it was said by a Nazi and everyone refused to listen to the Nazi. When it's clearly straight up propaganda, it's perfectly rational to dismiss it due to the source and not investigate further. If there's a valid and useful point to be made, it'll get made in more respectable sources too and then it might be time to pay attention. Plus, even if they do cite sources, it's hard to spot where they've twisted or lied about those sources, but it's really easy for the propagandist to spout whatever nonsense they believe because they don't care about the truth. That asymmetry is good for the Nazi and bad for decent people, and the way to fix that is don't waste your time carefully investigating and critiquing Nazi bullshit.
Now go in front of a mirror. Look at yourself and read your comment aloud. And then start reading the western MSM on Tienanmen. I hope you'll be able to figure at least something out of it.
