Despite russia’s ongoing destruction of Ukrainian culture and horrific war crimes - like the 2022 #Mariupol Drama Theater airstrike - russian artists still find global platforms.
Consuming their work indirectly supports these atrocities.
It’s time to close all stages to russian culture."
@EugeneMcParland This type of racist equating of a person with nation state does nothing but push people away and is worthless in terms of supporting Ukraine. Culture existed in Russia before the 2000s.
Above all, would you say the same thing about people who enjoy artists from many other nations that are doing heinous acts currently?
You should watch this YouTube video from Vlad Vexler. " Why All russians Are Responsible for putin's War"
He uses Thomas Mann's brilliant meditations on Nazi Germany to help us start a conversation about how do humans take responsibility when they are not guilty of evil, but are associated with it.
