iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

The US is a pariah state a little more each day.

I know Moscow & St-Petersburg well having lived there as a graduate exchange student. As everyone knows, they are modern western cities. (So too is Vladivostok for that matter even though it’s close to the border with North Korea.). But as soon as you get out into small towns, it’s another reality.

Yes indeed! That reminds me of the photos we’ve seen the last few years coming out of russia of completely frozen stairways of apartment buildings and basements full of excrement from broken sewage pipes. All due simply to the lack of investment in their aging infrastructure. Let’s make it worse!

If youre a "journalist" whose lived in one of our former colonies for 13 years and haven't figured out why NATO is so popular there, then you havent been doing journalism. And you're not a "Putin critic" either if you agree with everything Prez says.

russia killed 5 more Ukrainian children yesterday while they were sleeping in their homes. I hope Ukraine bombs the hell out of every effing russian refinery as well as their energy infrastructure. I want russia to burn and for russians to freeze this winter. It’s what these terrorists deserve.

"He doesn’t understand the people. He is a true Soviet KGB officer. A bit of an antisemite, a bit of a fascist. Not very intelligent. And he does not understand that people have rights. He is a president who simply doesn’t give a damn about his own citizens."

The richest man owns X. The second richest man owns The Washington Post. The third and fifth richest men control Google. The sixth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. And the eighth richest man now owns both Paramount and Warner Bros. See the problem here?

💔 Russian shelling in Kremenchuk destroyed a family home and killed two people. A mother sat beside the body of her son after firefighters pulled him from the rubble of their destroyed home, Suspilne reported.

On this day 20 years ago, Russian journalist Anna Politkovskaya was murdered in Moscow, on Putin’s 54th birthday. She had spent years reporting on Putin’s Russia and exposing atrocities committed during Russia’s war in Chechnya. Dozens of journalists have been killed for their work under Putin.

Tucker Carlson gives Americans a really bad reputation abroad. He confirms our bias of Americans being uncultured, poorly educated, unworldly and uncouth. It’s discouraging - even for those of us who love to hate Americans. Such a caricature!
