  1. "According to Kremlin sources, the number of officially reported repatriates from Europe to Kaliningrad has almost doubled in three years.

    In official rhetoric, these arrivals are framed as proof that Russia remains ‘safer’ and people are ‘returning home from an increasingly hostile West’.

    Rather than simply reporting migration, the narrative turns it into proof of the Kremlin’s preferred worldview."

  3. "Vladimir Putin has no intention of striking a peace deal with Ukraine and is more likely to escalate his war, according to Russian opposition activist Garry Kasparov.

  4. "... Elvira Bary explains why many Russians fear and distrust the West — and how Putin’s regime turns those fears into a powerful tool of control. Russian anti-Western paranoia did not appear out of nowhere. It draws on real historical wounds, NATO expansion, nuclear insecurity, fear of national collapse, memories of the 1990s, colonial history, and the myth that the West has always hated Russia. ...”

  16. stead of piggy backing off other folks' posts (and pissing everybody off) i guess i should just try to articulate cold

    on hanson and all the attention she's getting, folks reevaluating, pegging her for potential prime minister etc

    think it fair to ask how much of trumpism's about trump? folks look at the mess and the pattern they see is the party and the base, the democrats in disarray, and figure it's about trump, his personal appeal (as distinct from his 'agenda') and figure on his having a kind of messianic charisma

    nothing new in this (re flyover country ect) but as with hanson i reckon it fair to lay it square at the feet of the failings of our norms and institutions in so far as what we've been promised (how we've been given to understand the substance of those norms and institutions) and what they've delivered in the round
