Welcome to Russia 2022… Oh wait…

Thank you for posting it!

There were wars for less. As I understood the discourse, were talking about lots of oil that will be available there in the future - or will not, who knows.

Europe needs better safety measures than considering wars unlikely it stupid… I still can’t comprehend why the hell did Putin need to attack Ukraine, yet here we are 12/4 years after.

Time to ask my GP for a vaccine… I live in Europe, but tourists from USA come here fairly often.

Absolutely horrible. I hope USA democratic values would withstand this shitstorm. Right now I see Trump using Putin’s methods like a true fan.

I disagree about Maduro, but I never supported US kidnapping him. I’d only approve of such intervention to Russia, which has completely different circumstances.

I’d rather he’d do it to Russia. I think both Trump and Maduro are despicable evil people, but if we’re seeing deterioration of international laws already, I’d rather watch Putin being arrested and Russia to be put under western control. But of course, Trump won’t bite the hand that allegedly feeds him.

Thank you for sharing.

I’m from Russia, and I’ve seen thousands of people running from the police over a decade ago. I’ve left the country before the big invasion started, but I’ve heard of small, quiet protests, and even quieter, but organized sabotage of railways that run towards the border with Ukraine.

Many people still support Putin, might be hard to stand up to the empowered majority.

But my friends from Belarus participated in mass actions against Lukashenko; we know that the majority doesn’t support him at all, and yet nothing changed.

I’m not saying protest is ineffective, but sometimes it is, especially when the time passed and the system hardened.

It’s important to protest, a lot, especially when the situation is not dire yet. Not only when people are desperate, but when they’re in discomfort, when the politicians lie, when our rights are even slightly violated.

Now as a German citizen and resident I go to protests, sign petitions, and participate in other civil actions.

This album, along with Sam’s town, are the favorites of my teenage years.

Loved this one! Never heard it before.

How dreadful! For many trans people it’ll endanger their lives.

It all reminds me of what was happening in Russia over the decades, just smashed into an impossible timeline. Small steps lead to irrevocable disasters.
