across half a century and several occupied nations, ordinary people answered russian colonial rule the only way left to them — by setting their own bodies on fire so their warning about the empire travels through time. my latest essay. please support it.

Today while walking in my garden I remembered the words of my friend from Kherson: "I can't walk in my garden. I am scared that I may die".
For me walking in my garden is relaxing.
For her walking in her garden can be a death sentence because of Russian petal mines.
We both live in Europe.

The cause and effect of economic sanctions on Russia seems to be lost on many, including policymakers. The point is not to convince anyone of anything. The point is to obliterate the Russian economy.
No salaries. No production procurement. No fuel for vehicles of any kind.
Then the war ends.

there’s no random evil in r*zzia kidnapping local kids during invasions and occupations. it is a well-tested warfare playbook that the empire successfully deployed for generations.

vitriol that @efdavies.bsky.social faced for exposing for German media the russian special ops infiltration of Western academia is nasty. also a sign that russia hates for this story to take roots in the mainstream conversation.
Russia is seeking to legitimise its genocidal war against Ukraine through the construction of historical narratives. Among those supporting this effort is historian Alexei Miller, a professor of history in St. Petersburg and a member of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
