  • I like this approach. Something I’ve thought of at times is just turning the table on western propaganda - they’re pushing a narrative, what if you push with them to the point that either a) it is exposed as over the top bullshit or b) people start over-believing and it becomes a problem. Consider one of my acquaintances who thought that the Ukraine war was bullshit because Zelenskieyieiy was appearing in 40 magazines per week. Or, in the cases of Qanon, Blueanon etc., pushing with them just causes more problems for the west because this propaganda relies on an X% of believers. Too much or too little won’t do.









  • TASS “Domestic mRNA vaccine for cancer will be free”

    Big names. Gamaleya is very famous, known for developing the earliest vaccine for COVID, and the Blokhin oncology research center is the largest in both Europe and Russia. Hope it’s true and widely available.

    spoiler

    The creation of a cancer vaccine using the mRNA platform will cost the state about 300 thousand rubles for each specific patient, and will be administered free of charge. This was reported by Academician of the Russian Academy of Sciences, chief oncologist of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation, General Director of the National Research Center of Radiology Andrei Kaprin.

    The vaccine was developed jointly by several scientific teams - the Gamaleya Research Institute of Epidemiology and Microbiology, P. Hertsen Moscow Oncology Research Institute (MORI) and the N.N. Blokhin National Medical Research Center of Oncology. The beginning of distribution of the vaccine to patients is planned for early 2025.

  • using a user-agent switching extension?

    If you mean the Firefox Multi-Account Containers extension, then that’s fine (although I have issues with cookie management in that), but just switching a user-agent is not enough to stop fingerprinting and cookies. Some new features like cookie bounce protection in the latest update and the enhanced tracking protection can kind of prevent this leakage, but remember that it’s a numbers game and you need to be lucky always to not give anything away that could link your account to an off-site account.
