Exactly. That’s why Russia always relied on the “colonies” to feed it and supply it with goods. And still wants to. I was raised behind the Iron Curtain. It took me years to realize that the USSR was just a good old colonial empire with a different ideology label.

A volcano on Russia’s Kamchatka Peninsula has begun erupting for the first time in 600 years. According to local scientists, the eruption of the Krasheninnikov volcano sent an ash plume up to 6,000 meters into the sky.

A disconcerting number of high status people upended their worldviews because other people did not affirm that status in the way they thought appropriate. And social media accelerated this because for high status people it is often the experience of people telling you that you are wrong.

It will be Dachau though. Dachau wasn’t part of the “final solution”, it was meant for the “enemy within”, and people died mainly of diseases, starvation and suicide.

Somehow the fact that Russia invaded all of Ukraine in 2022 is slipping from the historical memory. Remember the Russian convoy stuck on the roads outside of Kyiv, civilians massacres in Bucha and Irpin in West Ukraine? They tried to take all and failed.
