@World_Insights1 In 15 years it went back to more than the amount that caused the crisis in the first place lol

@BrianMcDonaldIE 😃

@AndySaranti I wouldn’t go that far, now 😁

Pokrovka Street, Moscow. Today, 7.35pm.

@EgorKotkin @BrianMcDonaldIE Well that’s subjective

@AndySaranti @BrianMcDonaldIE It’s not even the best in Moscow

@alleycat1652685 @GorgeBushdid911 @zoecabina Like exactly the opposite is true

@GorgeBushdid911 @zoecabina difference is tourist are actually profitable for the city and countries they vist unlike refugees, they also eventually leave the country, unlike refugees

Greek socialists are a special kind of retarded

@NonStopSexDwarf @battleforeurope But having two passports is legal in both countries, no?

@battleforeurope I'd like to know more about how he got a Russian passport while still a UK citizen. I don't feel like I'm being told the whole story.

This is one of the most insane stories I’ve ever heard. A British citizen was STRIPPED OF HIS UK CITIZENSHIP because he lives in Russia and has opinions about the Ukraine war that the British government doesn’t like. Sad to see how the UK has descended into a tinpot dictatorship run by a low-IQ security establishment.

@Lisnard_Fella @StefR78 I mean now in Europe pro-Israeli positions are even mainstream, Putinism sounds like a minor problem at this stage

@StefR78 On as bien interdit le nazisme non ? Donc on doit interdire le Poutinisme.

@skinneralive1 @defeatrun @guldaar Ok but in some situations it is impossible to win the “hearts and minds” of everyone; if you try to find the correct vocabulary to win the “hearts and minds” of Israeli society you ‘d end up saying nothing…in the end they just showed bombed unis they didn’t demonize people

@AndySaranti @defeatrun @guldaar Change is made through winning hearts and minds, not demonizing those who don’t agree with your view point. The left has exacted change over the last 15-20 years through violent protest and mob demands, which has resulted in current political divide. It’s time to change.

Here is what The Strokes did and how it should go down in history as one of the most important protests by a musical band of our times:

@defeatrun @skinneralive1 @guldaar These are typical responses of someone who *does not want any chance to be made* (at least on the issue), trying to simply lower what everyone else does from a presumed pedestal.

@skinneralive1 @AndySaranti @guldaar How is change made?

@MykhailoRohoza Are these circles still with you in the room right now?

Russia is ready to return territories and reach an agreement with Ukraine. And most importantly — all of this is reportedly being planned without Putin. According to sources close to Kremlin circles, a real process of power transition has begun in Russia. Security officials and part of the elite have reportedly concluded that Vladimir Putin has become toxic and dangerous for the system itself. He is said to no longer fully control the situation. In closed-door negotiations, a scenario is already being discussed in which Putin could be removed (voluntarily or by force), and a new leadership would make serious concessions to Ukraine. The only major condition they are reportedly setting for now is that Crimea would remain under Russian control (at least during the initial stage of negotiations). Its status is proposed to be discussed later, in a few years.

@BohuslavskaKate I mean Israel and the US participate too

KALLAS: While Russia bombs museums, destroys churches, and seeks to erase Ukrainian culture, it should not be allowed to exhibit its own. Russia's return to the Venice Biennale is morally wrong, and also EU intends to cut its funding.

@John_VanAmburg @Libertades_xx @eshaLegal Poor guy, looks like a grown up person but still haven’t heard about vpns

@Libertades_xx @eshaLegal

I am in Moscow... right now!

@skinneralive1 @guldaar So you argue that it would be better if they did nothing?

@guldaar Amazing protest for the children of elites, OF girls and influencers. No one will remember any of this by Monday morning. Nothing and I mean nothing that happens at these multi million dollar music festivals means anything other than profit.

@YannisKaramits Are yoi serious? Fuck no

Αν ξεσπούσε πόλεμος Ισραήλ - Τουρκίας, θα έπρεπε να εμπλακεί ενεργά και η Ελλάδα ως σύμμαχος τού Ισραήλ;

@TheEconomist Joyless theocracy lol tell me u are an orientalist without telling me

The Iranian regime is not known for its sense of humour. Yet many of its propaganda videos show fluency in their enemy’s culture. We explain how a joyless theocracy is out-trolling the Trump administration economist.com/culture/2026/0…

@chum_chum_olo @jonnytickle Где?

@jonnytickle Паверхаус переоткроется под новой крышей

паверхаус — все бланк — все пропаганда — все как будто все мои старые тусовочные места уже исчезли...

@_kotelnaya_ Fuck it closed? Was the perfect spot

Pwrhouse in Moscow, a multi-purpose venue that was a staple of the 2010s, has closed. It’s one of many from that era, fuelling a boom in nostalgia posts on Instagram about weekends in the 2010s. They get replaced by new places, but there’s of a generational turnover going on.

@tokko849 @dimitrilascaris Well, compared to military power at least Finland is laughable as a “middle power”; comment was pointing to that

Finland is a middle power? Is he joking?

@feacrone @AaronBastani 1989? Maybe smth happened in between?

@AaronBastani Deliberately misleading. Russia’s GDP bottomed out in 1998. If you go by growth since 1989, Russia is worse than Britain or France.

Gas station with nukes latest.
