Go ahead and villify the media for a situation the Americans have brought on themselves, just as the first civil war was self- inflicted.
You either believe and adhere to your founding principles or you don't. Are all people CREATED EQUAL or are they not? Does the bill of rights apply to everyone within the country or does it not?
If you want a country where oligarchs and tycoons get preferential treatment, look to emulate Russia. If you want a country dedicated to one race, one culture, and one party rule, you can emulate China.
Americans killed each other in vast numbers during the first civil war, to create a country that exported security and interstate integration to world (call it globalization). If you want to abandon that and let neo Nazis, flat earthers and anti-vaxers create a homeland then go for it.
Political chemo therapy is unpleasant, but each American gets to suffer a dose or two.
There are tons of other non-Russian publications writing about the same thing...I've actually been reading about this for the last week and there seems to be a lot of coverage on it from sources like Foreign Policy [1][2], The New Yorker [3], The Guardian [4], Newsweek [5], Vice [6], Washington Post [7], etc...for what it's worth
