I make videos on YouTube about war, conflict, Russia – at the moment mostly the war in Ukraine.

#mastoadmin from areas speaking a "minor" language, please support my feature request "When calculating trend content, give extra score to server language"
Pitch Almost all the trending posts, links and hashtags I get on my Danish language server are in English. I guess it is because the "local" fediverse consists of many large English/global servers....
TV2 Lorry omdannes til TV2 Kosmopol
Deres første programerklæring lyder et resume fra De Københavnske Saloner”……
“goddag til ny journalistik, der går på tværs af områdets 34 kommuner og har udsyn til storbyerne i landene omkring os - Stockholm, Malmø, Berlin, Hamburg- Dem har vi mere til fælles med end Hirtshals, Holstebro og Herning, hedder det”

This, I believe is a good solution: Dozhd maintains a safe haven in the EU, but in a country with less potential friction points.
(Btw, this way it will also be able to broadcast in Latvia, but we all know that its main audience is in Russia.)
I keep seeing articles, about people trying to violently overturn election results, that use phrases like “motivated by election lies”.
They aren’t motivated by lies, they are motivated by not liking the result. Repeating the lies just makes them feel powerful because it makes them part of the grift. They think they’re fooling people.
Blaming the lies lulls us into thinking that this is an education/disinformation problem which, if addressed, will eliminate the violence.
These folks aren’t deluded. They’ve learned from their leaders that violence and lying are the route to power.
For most of my life I thought these problems could be solved by education. I no longer do. As far as I can tell, about 30% of the population believes that getting away with grifts and bullying people is proof of power and leadership that should be respected, worshiped, and emulated.
We can’t educate these folks. We can only build a society that ensures that they cannot gain control. Unfortunately, the entire human race has largely failed to do so, and we’re suffering the consequences on a planetary scale.
Every day we act as though they don’t *know* that the elections were valid, is a day we risk losing the fight for democracy, equality, and a stable environment.
