Is it time for #Russians to switch to #Nostr?

...Moscow, handed a 1,500-ruble (roughly US$16) fine to artist and photographer Inna Mosina over several Instagram posts depicting rainbow flags...the posts were published before the ruling, at a time when rainbow flags were not regarded by authorities as extremist, and her lawyer argued that a police report about her alleged wrongdoing was filed before the ruling took force. The court ordered her to pay the fine nonetheless..., a court fined a man 1,000 rubles (about US$11) for allegedly posting a rainbow flag on social media.

Sure, Sure.

#Russia #Europe #Germany #Ukraine

"In related news, the sky will fall on Earth.
...

Somebody needs to check the head of this idiot as well as heads of imbeciles who named the Ukie organized gathering Yalta European Strategy forgetting that it was at #Yalta in #1945 where the decision on partition of Germany was reached, as well as more actions coordinated to finish off #Nazism. The irony got lost on these creeps. But then again, what do you expect from them.

This fits really well with Medvedev's reaction to #EU trying to forbid #Russians to #travel to Europe."

While no one was paying attention, last month the #Kiev gang #sold #Ukraine to $8.5 trillion-worth #BlackRock. Just like that. The deal was sealed between the Government of Ukraine and BlackRock’s VP Philipp Hildebrand.

Meanwhile, away from the battlefield, the #Russians are very much aware of the frantic geoeconomic activity.

It’s fascinating to see how these patriotic/independent #journalists are now playing a role similar to the former political commissars in the USSR, all of them, in their own way, deeply committed to guiding Russian society towards draining the swamp, slowly but surely.

It’s clear Putin not only understands their role but sometimes, “shock to the system-style”, the system he presides actually implements the journalists’ suggestions. As a foreign correspondent working all over the world for nearly 40 years now, I have been quite impressed by the way Russian journalists may enjoy a degree of #freedom unimaginable in most latitudes of the collective West.

Putin and What Really Matters in the Chessboard

The Russians Call Out NASA

For decades, #Boomers who believe in the #Moon-Landing #narrative more firmly than they believe in #God, #Family, or #Country have argued that the landings couldn’t have been faked or the #Russians would have called out #NASA. But now the former head of the Russian space agency is doing precisely that.

The former head of #Russia’s #Roscosmos space agency, #DmitryRogozin, has expressed #doubt that the #US #Apollo-11 mission really landed on the #Moon in 1969, saying he has yet to see conclusive #proof.

In a post on his Telegram channel on Sunday, Rogozin said he began his personal quest for the truth “about ten years ago” when he was still working in the Russian government, and that he grew skeptical about whether the Americans had actually set foot on the Moon when he compared how exhausted Soviet cosmonauts looked upon returning from their flights, and how seemingly unaffected the Apollo 11 crew was by contrast.

#Rogozin said he sent requests for evidence to Roscosmos at the time. All he received in response was a book featuring Soviet Cosmonaut Aleksey Leonov’s account of how he talked to the American astronauts and how they told him they had been on the Moon.

The former official wrote that he continued with his efforts when he was appointed head of Roscosmos in 2018. However, according to Rogozin, no evidence was presented to him. Instead, several unnamed academics angrily criticized him for undermining the “sacred cooperation with NASA,” he claimed. The former Roscosmos chief also said he had “received an angry phone call from a top-ranking official” who supposedly accused him of complicating international relations.

Rogozin concluded by saying he still cannot believe that the US was able to pull off the feat, but is now unable to, despite the incredible progress in technology since the late 1960s. What he claims to have found out, however, was that Washington has “its people in [the Russian] establishment.”

Translation: NASA faked major elements of the space program and everyone in a place to know better kept quiet for fear of being targeted by #ClownWorld. But now it is becoming increasingly obvious and the official Moon landing narrative is rapidly crumbling.

I very much doubt this will be the only #historical #hoax to be exposed by the Russians over the next decade.

Video shows a truck full of Ukrainian soldiers passing damaged what seems to be Ukrainian tanks and armored vehicles

The video says they are leaving Bakhmut, but their clothes and fear in their eyes says they are part of the "reinforcement" #Ukraine is sending to #Bakhmut to stop #Russians advancement.

Their faces reminds me of the young volunteers I met during Iraq invasion of Iran back in early 80s. Most of them going to be victims of this unnecessary and stupid war.

Sadly, we won't see any such videos from the Russian side, I am sure their troops and soldiers have the same fear in their eyes.

War is glory for the leader, cash cow for weapons makers and hell for those fighting it.

Song for today, poignant & urgent:
A 'classic' from Sting:

"Russians"

I have friends & colleagues in RU- lovely people devoted to family, good works, doing what they can to make things better, even within a very oppressive & authoritarian culture which goes back generations.

Yet, with regard to leadership and enablers of war/genocide, some may rightly wonder 'If the Russians love their children too.' (Politburo e.g.)

Russia

Hi everyone on #Diaspora who speaks #Russian.

I just want to say that I condemn any acts of hate speech against #Russians, no matter what is happening in #Ukraine.

I welcome Russians on #Diaspora and hope you are safe and treated with respect, regardless of political circumstances.

Many wonderful people have come out of Russia, for example Mikhail Bakunin.

Thank you for being part of #Diaspora and hope you have a good day.

Привет всем на #Diaspora, кто говорит по-русски.

Я просто хочу сказать, что я осуждаю любые акты разжигания ненависти в отношении россиян, независимо от того, что происходит в Украине.

Я приветствую россиян на #Diaspora и надеюсь, что вы в безопасности и к вам относятся с уважением, независимо от политических обстоятельств.

Из России приехало много замечательных людей, например Михаил Бакунин.

Спасибо за то, что вы являетесь частью #Diaspora и надеюсь, что у вас будет хороший день.

Prof Richard Wolff ~ The Ukraine Crisis

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C8KhRkbEld8

#ProfWolff reveals the #truth behind the growing #tensions between the #US, #Russia and #Western #Europe. This is yet another example of #distraction #politics. The #Biden #administration is seeking to #deflect #attention away from the #domestic #issues it is confronted with, while also attempting to squeeze #Russians out of the #European #energy #market and move #Americans in. But is whatever is happening in the #Ukraine worth a #war between 2 #nuclear #powers like the US and Russia? This question, #Wolff argues, begs an answer.

If we have a commitment to #Ukraine, we must honour it or our commitments mean nothing. There's more than enough #military #power in #Europe without the #USA to dissuade #Russia. Move 40,000 #European troops into Ukraine with anti-missle, anti-air & anti-tank hardware. If you want #peace, prepare for #war. Deploy now. Weakness is not respected.

The #Russians have 54,000 to 72,000 troops, plus 3000 to 4000 vehicles, plus 35 aircraft surrounding Ukraine. Ukraine has about 200,000 troops, plus 30,000 vehicles and 125 aircraft. The Russians are likely better trained & certainly have better hardware. However, the Russians stand no chance against #NATO, even without the USA. European NATO is more than a match.

Russia is likely testing our commitment to Ukraine, which we ought to demonstrate immediately. We must not abandon our allies, neither must we initiate war frivolously. We must deploy to Ukraine with 40,000 troops and defensive hardware, & leave when Russia has finished its "training exercise," leaving the defensive hardware behind with small teams to train Ukrainians in its use.

Fair is Fair

Someone near #Ireland is gravely concerned because the #Russians may do #missile tests nearby.

Whatever they are up to. this can’t be good, and it is right in my backyard.

Hmmm... That might be just how the Russians along the #Ukraine border feel when NATO troops are pouring into Ukraine, the main ex-Soviet Republic.

Especially when in 1990 George Bush the elder promised #Russia that #NATO "would not expand one inch" towards Russia.

And, since that statement:

note: that last big gray one on the right is Ukraine.

NATO expansion — Postimages
