Question of the day: what is the difference between a foreign agent and a “patriot”?

Novye Izvestia has already published a material in which they explained the absurdity of the law on foreign agents, according to which, if it is not applied selectively, as the authorities do, but completely, this status can be safely assigned to literally all journalists, including propagandists from the state MASS MEDIA. And not only to journalists, but even to the deputies themselves, who composed and adopted it.

So the anecdote, which claims that foreign agents attract foreign currency to Russia, while many Russian officials and businessmen, on the contrary, take them out of the country, very accurately reflects the real state of affairs.
