The hate of men will pass, and dictators die.

85 years ago, Charlie Chaplin delivered his famous speech at the end of his first film with dialogue - The Great Dictator.

He spoke these timeless words as Nazis rose to power, and the drums of war beat in Europe, echoing across the world.

As relevant, and necessary to hear, today as ever

Can you imagine the staggering efforts that went into this?

Russia has relentlessly attacked Ukrainian civilian energy infrastructure this winter, already with 1000s of drones and missiles so far this year alone.

Every major power station in Ukraine has been damaged.

And yet light shines. ❤️

‼️ The Russian electronic budget portal shows a 3.7985 trillion deficit through February 12th, or 100.33% of the planned deficit for the whole *year* of 2026.

It took them 6 weeks to blow through their annual budget deficit.

This one clip is now dark satire for Russians, and a reminder of how far Putin’s promises have fallen, and why he wants censorship: to shrink the audience for his failure.

I miss quiet nights so much—the kind where I feel safe and my mind can finally be still. Now, every siren makes my heart race and my eye twitch with panic. It’s impossible to stay calm when you know your whole life could change in a single second. 1/2

Russian milbloggers lament that an entire company of their "elite" VDV airborne infantry sent into Sumy in December are all dead.

This whole offensive was disastrous for Russia all round - a complete failure and a bloodbath.

Anne Applebaum: "Steve Witkoff has no experience with Russia or diplomacy. I fear he imagines a US-Russia pact where he, his son, Trump's family or their circle benefit personally

Samolot, Russia’s largest developer, hasn’t paid some of its workers in 4 months, and they’re threatening to strike. (lol @ not getting paid for that long before striking)

Samolet recently asked the Russian government for a 50 bn ruble emergency loan.
