Макс, мне тоже очень очень нравится твоя работа. Здесь, я должен согласиться с Петром. Нельзя сказать, что все плохо с русским народом и, что “можно узнать как Украинцы страдают от других источников.” Познер просто пропагандист для государства, который шикарно говорить по-английски. До тех пор, я переехал в Россию, где я прожил 13 лет, я там бывал 77 раз, начиная с января 89-ого года. Как человек, который люблю Россию, да, Я переживаю ради обычного русского гражданина при санкциях. Моя теща еще там. НО, извини, из-за этой несправедливой войны, невиноватых Ураинцев убывают каждый день, миллионы из них надо было уехать из страны. В отличии от Русского народа Украинцы реально страдают. Учачи тебе, жене, и дочери!

Patrick, Are you kidding? Nice job of parroting current Russian Government propaganda points. Yes, the conflict could have been avoided. Russia DID NOT have to invade Ukraine. Russia is NOT a great civilization right now. Russia has contributed much to the world: Literature (Pushkin, Tolstoy, Bulgagov, and many others), Classical Music, Ballet, Exploration of Space, etc. At the end of the day, this conflict was triggered BY Putin and his desire to subjugate Ukraine and keep it from moving closer to the West. Putin doesn’t fear NATO Expansion, he fears Ukraine joining the EU. Can’t have another neighboring country possibly having better infrastructure, a better economy, and more personal freedoms. Especially a country with an extensive, intertwined history. Hopefully, someday this war will be over, Putin will be gone, and the next Russian leader will want to bring Russia back into the fold of civilized nations. Maybe Russia can have a government that doesn’t think it’s ok to invade a neighboring country and commit war crimes.

Ahhh, too bad I missed this reply. You’d have really been able to see some serious tone. 🙂 🙂

Привет Макс! Отличный сайт и у тебя всегда шикарный материал! Я очень благодарен за такой уровень профессионализма. Продолжай работать в этом духе, плиз! 🙂 🙂

Twitter and Facebook are indeed private companies and to use their services one has to follow the rules. Presumably, you’re a law and order kind of guy. All Trump had to do was follow the rules, or as conservatives are so fond of saying, “just comply.” He got a free pass for years while repeatedly breaking the rules of these commercial sites. Regarding why Parler was deplatformed: Parler was pulled from app stores run by Apple and Google and dropped by Amazon’s web hosting services after the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. Parler was one of the platforms used by supporters of former President Donald Trump to plan and chronicle what happened that day. I guess you’re ok with social networks being used to plan and execute an insurrection? At the end of the day, there’s Fox, OAN and Newsmax, and a TON of right-wing online sites. Nobody is being canceled nor silenced. Josh Hawley claimed the media was trying to silence him the other day. This while being hosted by the Washington Post so he could promote his book! Please spare us your victim mentality.
