Due to losses in #Ukraine, Russian mobilization efforts are forced to recruit 20,000 new soldiers monthly.

The conscription is often forced and the people chosen are mainly from the outer regions of #Russia or prisons, says a representative of Ukraine’s Defense Intelligence.

John Oliver's great takedown of right wing double-speak rhetoric. Such as DeSantis' claim that his state is the 'freest', but as JO dissects these slogans; your 'freedom' is actually limited to only what the right wing government will continually legislate what you can / cannot do. Let the USA be an clarion call for European politics. #Intolerance #ModernNazism #Censorship #Education #EUvalues 🇪🇺 https://youtube.com/watch?v=M81-GM0mTc4&feature=share

Extremely Online

The acclaimed Washington Post reporter Taylor Lorenz presents a groundbreaking social history of the internet, revealing how online influence and the creators who amass it have reshaped our world, online and off.

Last October, Ukrainian sea drones hit several Russian ships in Sebastopol, occupied Crimea. Instead of World War III, the attack helped reduce violence, protect commerce, and maybe even ensure that some people outside Ukraine didn’t go hungry.
Crimea is now an armed camp, stocked with ammunition, artillery and missiles that will be aimed at Ukrainian cities. Ukraine has to destroy these objects if it wants to survive.
