Alexei Navalny Dead

Yet another critic of Vladimir Putin has died mysteriously. The only thing as dangerous as criticizing Putin, is fighting in the Russian military--which has a running total of 315K casualties in the war with Ukraine.

CuTRis Banned from Russia Permanently

CuTRis Banned from Russia Permanently for Calling Putin a Poop-Head UnAssociated Press May 19, 2023 After refering to Vladimir Putin as a "poop-head," CuTRis has been banned from entering Russia.

I can remember growing up, thinking that I was going to end up drafted and in a war (Vietnam was in the news at that time). I asked him what he knew about WWI and WWII. Then I decided he needed a crash course (of history). I found the answer on YouTube.com. These are both informative and entertaining. He has since watched several others in the series. WW1 - Oversimplified (part 1) WW1 - Oversimplified (part 2) WW2 - Oversimplified (part 1) WW2 - Oversimplified (part 2)

Bravery vs Crime

Stop the Big Lie

Russia is split politically, just like the USA. Some support the big lie, and others are devastated by what's happening. This is why we have to never allow a selfish tyrant access to our highest political office. The fate of the world cannot be dictated by madmen. The truth is real, and lies are distrucive--regardless of the political affiliation they spawn from.

New Leadership Needed

"That is a peaceful, sovereign society captain. No I don't think we should attack." "Tell you what, let's go down to sickbay, and Spock can drive the ship..."

The Value of Diverse News

From what I understand, there is a difference between the Russians who only speak Russian, and those who also speak English. This is to be expected. The ones who speak English are able to digest news from other sources other than the Russian state.
