I think he is trying hard to make Putin look bad. Just do a little research on his history.

He was born on the outskirts of Moscow in the provincial town of Podolsk (which has a population of 302,831) where Krasovsky went to school.

He continued his studies in Ukraine, in the town of Rivne, where his engineer father worked at Rivne Nuclear Power Plant.

In the past few years Krasovsky has managed election campaigns for two opposition candidates, billionaire Mikhail Prokhorov’s and a pop socialite Ksenia Sobchak.

Krasovsky is the only openly gay person in the country of Russia—with a population of more than 140 million—who dares to compete in the Kremlin-controlled election process.

The majority of Russian politicians and bureaucrats agree that LGBTQ people are abnormal.

In Russia officials are not shy about their homophobic views. There is a sign on the door to the office of MP Vitaly Milonov, at State Duma, the lower house of Russian parliament: “Banned entry for Sodomites.” Milonov is one of masterminds behind the anti-gay “propaganda” bill—in 2016 he claimed that gay people “rape kids.”

Five years ago, in June, 2013, 436 Russian MPs voted in favor of a new bill to ban “propaganda of non-traditional sexual relations” among minors. The bill forbade both individuals and media groups to distribute literature or any other materials about gay rights.

Since then, President Putin has been criticized for not doing enough to help the gay men killed and persecuted in a vicious crackdown in Chechnya. The noted British LGBT activist Peter Tatchell protested precisely this at the beginning of the World Cup, where the homophobia and anti-LGBT politics of Russia has again come under the international spotlight.

About why he mounted the protest, Tatchell told The Daily Beast at the time, “It’s tremendously important that President Putin doesn’t score an unchallenged public relations coup with the World Cup. He needs to be called out over the persecution of LGBT+ people, his suppression of the civil rights of Russian citizens, and his war crimes in Syria.”


“Of all politicians I prefer Obama, I am social democrat by my political views, I want to take part in the election to show the current political elite how to fight for human rights and freedom.”

The Biden admin are now shamelessly abusing Executive power in a last-ditch effort to maintain control of their brainwashing/election interference tool, otherwise known as Twitter.

The Biden admin have declared Elon Musk’s takeover a threat to National Security, under the premise that he “tweeted a peace plan that seemed to parrot Kremlin talking points”.

- Russian missile and drone strikes continue targeting and crippling Ukraine's power grid,
- Ukraine is attempting to target a major dam at Nova Kakhkovka to flood the Dnieper River and disrupt Russian supply lines to Kherson city;
- Western analysts admit Ukraine is in a critical situation and risks being completely cut off from its Western sponsors;
- The US is putting pieces in place to set up a buffer zone in Ukraine to prevent Russian forces from taking western Ukraine and perhaps even Odesa to prevent what's left of Ukraine from becoming landlocked.

Only problem I have with this translation is there is a cultural history we do not have access to that has to do with cultural differences between Russian thinking and US thinking.

Call it 'taking it out of historical context'?

For example, Russian men when they leave their wives to travel will cry at the airport/train to show their love for their partner.

That's not how American men react.

Americans might bring a date a single rose flower to show friendship/kindness, whereas in Russia, they want a whole dozen and the bigger the flower heads the better!

The point is that cultural differences and therefore comprehension of the meanings, or implications of speech, get skewed in translation.

This is a RT (Russian controlled) station. That's like saying because they are 'Russian' that what they say is monitored and controlled by the State. That's like saying our media is totally independent, (yet we know 5 corporations own all of it).

If you think our 'free' press narrative isn't controlled, why would they all have the very same story - news at 11 - every day? The anchors are free to spout off about how bad Trump is. He's been (falsely) indicted and by implication 'he's a criminal of the worst kind', a tax cheat, a womanizer deserving punishment. Is that 'controlled' by the State? No. It IS the general consensus of those that work in media. Why? Because they're all liberals for the most part who drink from the same propaganda trough. It's the 'accepted' narrative. Is it supported by the government? It comes down to who's side one is on.

It's akin to other nations believing America is all cowboys and Indians always shooting up the place because they saw it in a movie.
Did Putin 'invade' Ukraine? OR is he 'liberating' them? It depends on who's narrative you accept as true.

It's like the meme that gets posted of a swinging noose when Hillary is mentioned. Do we really think the poster is going to hang her? Or is it a symbol of disgust knowing her involvement in fomenting a scorched Earth campaign against Trump for her inadequate run for POTUS?

I'd at least like to see her get justice with a trial and conviction, but hanging? While that would be a ratings bonanza for networks, I'd settle for a long vacation at Club Gitmo. But someone from a different culture could take it quite literally... like shootum up's at high noon in every town in the US.

That's my take on the video posted.

"The Russian defense minister has shared concerns with his French counterpart about a possible Ukrainian provocation involving the use of a “dirty bomb”.

According to the Russian Defense Ministry, Sergey Shoigu and Sebastien Lecornu spoke
by phone on Sunday, discussing “the situation in Ukraine, which is consistently veering
towards further uncontrolled escalation.”

Shoigu, in an apparent reference to previous media reports, voiced concerns about a
possible Ukrainian provocation” which could involve the use of a “dirty bomb.”

Earlier on Sunday, RIA Novosti cited “sources in different countries including Ukraine”
as saying that Kiev is preparing to detonate “a dirty bomb or a low-yield nuclear weapon”
on its own territory. According to the Russian news agency, the goal would be to accuse
Moscow of using weapons of mass destruction in a ploy to “launch a powerful anti-Russia campaign”.

The report claimed that two Ukrainian institutions have already been tasked with manufacturing a “dirty bomb,” with the work now at “the final stages.” Meanwhile, Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky's administration is reportedly engaged in behind-the-scenes talks with British officials in a bid to secure the transfer of nuclear arms components to Kiev.

A so-called dirty bomb uses a conventional explosive combined with radioactive material. While it could not rival a nuclear warhead in terms of power, such a device could disperse a radiation cloud within several kilometers of the explosion.

The talks between Shoigu and Lecornu come days after the Russian defense minister had a rare telephone conversation with US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin. While the details of the talks are scarce, the sides are said to have discussed “issues of international security, including the situation in Ukraine.”

France has joined Western sanctions against Russia over the Ukraine conflict and has supported Kiev with various weaponry. However, President Emmanuel Macron has on numerous occasions urged Moscow and Kiev to return to peace negotiations, reiterating that the conflict can be settled only diplomatically."

Russians’ guide to the correct interpretation of Western political words and expressions.

Translated from a piece being shared among Russians.

➢ “The whole civilized world”: all the colonies of the USA

➢ “Global civilizational values”: conditions of vassalage under US sovereignty

➢ “Democracy”: the power of the Anglo-Saxons over the people

➢ “We have a democracy”: we Anglo-Saxons have all the power

➢ “You don’t have democracy”: you have something that the Anglo-Saxons consider their own

➢ “You have totalitarianism”: you have something that the Anglo-Saxons consider their own and you don't want to give it to them

➢ “You are violating human rights”: you are violating the rights of the Anglo-Saxons to take away from you whatever they like

➢ “We are fighting for human rights”: we are fighting for the rights of the Anglo-Saxons to kill those who do not want to give them something

➢ “We have freedom of speech”: we can only say what is approved by the US State Department

➢ “You do not have freedom of speech”: you allow yourself too much of what the US State Department does not approve of

➢ “Russia threatens the entire civilized community”: for some reason Russia does not want to be a colony of the USA

➢ “The whole civilized world is against Russia”: all the colonies of the USA are against Russia

➢ “Our actions are not directed against Russia”: it is against Russia that all our actions are directed

➢ “We support the struggle for human rights in Russia”: we support the destruction of Russians by all available means

➢ “We are concerned about human rights in Russia”: we are concerned that the destruction of Russians is not proceeding at an adequate pace

➢ “Russian propaganda lies”: the Anglo-Saxons lie and do not blush

RT sacks propagandist TV host for suggesting Ukrainian children should be drowned in river

The Russian state-owned channel Russia Today (RT) has fired TV host Anton Krasovsky after his statement that it was necessary to drown Ukrainian children who believed that the territory of Ukraine was occupied by Russia.

"A Ukrainian is a Russian spiritual transvestite"
 
In September, a video surfaced online apparently showing Yevgeny Prigozhin, a wealthy businessman and close associate of Vladimir Putin, speaking to a group of incarcerated men in the yard of a Russian prison. Prigozhin was encouraging them to join the Wagner Group, the infamous mercenary organization he founded, and fight in Ukraine as a way out of prison.

The video signaled Prigozhin’s first apparent confirmation that he does, in fact, control Wagner. While Prigozhin had been known for years for his connection to the group, he had until recently always denied that he controlled its fighters, who have deployed in support of Russian campaigns in half a dozen conflicts around the world, where many have been accused of human rights abuses that include torture, rape, and the mass killing of civilians. More videos confirming Prigozhin’s role at the helm of Wagner have since emerged, and for the first time he acknowledged founding the group in a statement issued last month through one of his companies.

Wagner got its start during the 2014 Russian invasion of Ukraine, and as evidence of its mercenaries’ abuses mounted, Prigozhin fiercely fought off reports of his links to them, often enlisting the help of attorneys to do so. Now, a cache of hacked emails and documents reviewed by The Intercept details for the first time the behind-the-scenes relationship between Prigozhin’s legal team in Russia and several British and U.S. law firms that worked on his behalf to contest sanctions; defend him against U.S. prosecution; discredit journalists investigating his shadowy businesses; and sue Eliot Higgins, the founder of the investigative website Bellingcat.
...
The documents and emails were unearthed in a series of hacks against over 50 Russian companies and government agencies after this year’s invasion, in what appears to be the largest cumulative hack of a nation-state to have ever taken place. The companies hacked included a top Russian law firm that represents Prigozhin: Capital Legal Services, which has offices in Moscow, St. Petersburg, and Helsinki, Finland. The identities of the hackers are not known. The CLS files were hacked by activists associated with Anonymous ...
...
The collective files of the hacks — more than 13 terabytes in all — were provided to Distributed Denial of Secrets, a transparency collective that has published the raw documents on its website. Due to the amount of hacked material and the complexity of organizing it, there has been relatively little reporting on the voluminous files published by DDoSecrets. But several months ago, The Intercept and the Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project formed a consortium of news organizations to investigate the documents, which The Intercept and OCCRP indexed into searchable databases. This story is among the first to be published by a member of the consortium.

"Nord Stream Repair Time Frame Assessed

Russia’s Nord Stream gas pipelines, which were damaged and made inoperable by underwater explosions in late September, can be repaired within a few months.

That's according to the state-backed Danish Broadcasting Corporation (DR) which was citing Sten Ussing, Chief Engineer with consultant group COWI.

Ussing assessed from underwater video-footage that the pipes will not be damaged by rust for some time as there is little oxygen at a depth of 80 meters, where they are located. He noted that the fracture surfaces look “very clean and almost shiny,” which suggests that “the pipe will not rust in a few weeks, as one would expect in a more oxygenated environment.”

Summary

In this report, the Independent International Commission of Inquiry on Ukraine will refer to findings about events during late February and March 2022 in the four regions of Kyiv, Chernihiv, Kharkiv, and Sumy, as requested by Human Rights Council resolution S-34/1.

During this first phase of its investigations, the Commission has found that war crimes, violations of human rights and international humanitarian law have been committed in Ukraine since 24 February 2022. Russian armed forces are responsible for the vast majority of the violations identified.

Ukrainian forces have also committed international humanitarian law violations in some cases, including two incidents that qualify as war crimes. The Commission, composed of three experts, applies a “reasonable grounds to conclude” standard of proof in reaching its conclusions, based on a body of verified information.

The relentless use of explosive weapons with wide area effects in populated areas has killed and injured scores of civilians and devastated entire neighbourhoods. The Commission documented indiscriminate attacks using cluster munitions, unguided rockets, and air strikes in the context of Russian armed forces’ attempts to capture towns and smaller settlements.

These weapons systems are highly likely to have indiscriminate effects and cause significant harm to civilians. Indeed, most of the verified deaths since the outset of the hostilities have been caused by these weapons. Residential buildings, schools, and hospitals, among other parts of the civilian infrastructure, have been damaged or destroyed.

The Commission also found that Russian armed forces have shot at civilians attempting to flee and that during the conduct of hostilities, parties have deployed their military assets and troops in ways that can endanger civilians, in contravention of international humanitarian law.

Furthermore, the Commission documented patterns of summary executions, unlawful confinement, torture, ill-treatment, rape and other sexual violence committed in areas occupied by Russian armed forces across the four regions on which it focused. People have been detained, some have been unlawfully deported to the Russian Federation, and many are still reported missing. Sexual violence has affected victims of all ages. Victims, including children, were sometimes forced to witness the crimes.

Children have become the victims of the full spectrum of violations investigated by the Commission, including indiscriminate attacks, torture, and rape, suffering the predictable psychological consequences.
