How young is young? This sounds like a great idea, but I’m pushing 30yo and have never finished school or had proper steady employment. Wonder if that will be a deal breaker

rumors of them transferring Wagner units from Africa. Those guys have a chance to do the funniest thing ever

lmao

tsargrad tv is a mouthpiece for konstantin malofeev, a fairly prominent oligarch with interests in telecommunications companies (among other things) and monarchist/orthodox christian politics. they even had alex jones on at one point.

Do you have any good sources for reading more on this part (the transition away from industry)?

what about neocon, does anyone self id as that :|

It’s quite possible they did share, but the Russians thought they had it handled. Afaik there was a mirror situation in 2013 with the Boston bombings, Russian intelligence knew about the terrorists and tipped off the CIA but was largely disregarded.

I’m Russian and I was amazed to find out that popcorn is ancient and Americans actually had special machines for making even in the 1910s. We never got that shit even after khrush’s initiative, and we love movies no less than americans. Popcorn became a thing there in the 90s
