You really truly think what we are getting fed is not propaganda also? seriously?

With propaganda then look at how it's actually pretty difficult for Russia to effectively enforce it in their home country. They've had to kick out or shut down independent stations and block social networks. If Russia were so confident in their 'side' they would not need to be doing this.
You might have a point that we're being fed propaganda too but it's not just the U.K media here is it? You have the United States as well. If you think they're in cahoots then look at the media from Europe. Hugh has linked you to Al Jazeera. This is a pretty broad amount of reporting from countries that aren't all geopolitically aligned.
What happened in 2014 is well-documented by several independent outlets which you can go read. There are also explanations of the 'Nazi problem' in Ukraine in Western outlets.
And so yes you can say you don't believe everything you read but I don't really see how that gets us anywhere. That could be said of 95% of the things that are happening in this world. At some point you're allowed to believe something to be true, it's not ruling out what you understand to be true can change when giving new information.
