It's more a publicity stunt, they have to look like they are doing their thing to help the cause. In this case it's counter productive but that doesn't really matter, they look good.

"Utter nonsens" is such a non-startar in conversations you know... My "proof" is that everyone I know in Germany has been forced to change their kids school or use homework help or other way of paying for help in school

Childcare is a must if you want an equal society. If a family gets to choose who works, the incentive is toe choose the one that makes most money. By statistics this is by a far margin male. So childcare is the solution to inequality, not a

I think that is the collected western view of it. Everyone is baffled of the ignorance and ... well, mostly not finding words to describe the enormous disconnect from reality that russian leaders are showing. The first wave of soldiers from

A digital format needs to be as simple as possible. If you need a 1000 page long definition for the word document format to be able to get the information out of it, it's not really good for anything when the format is forgotten.

If there is something left to take over. I'm affraid the young will leave russia and start a new life somewhere safe and sane. Russia is more similar to China, North Korea and some middle east areas than the west.

There is a fine line between making it hurt for normal people and make the affirmation of Putins world view that they are under attack. People are already living with a lie their whole life, it doesn't help if we affirm this just when

It's increddibly shortsighted, It's cutting out people that is trying to fight with true information, leaving the propaganda unquestioned. This is why we won't cut internet to russia.

It's a bit counter productive to shut down the people that is actually trying to help. Then there is only Putins views out there... That is exactly why the west did NOT shut down internet to russia, if we do that, there will be noone s

We are many sharing this view. It's just a question of time before someone high enough takes care of him. Noone wants a nuclear war ever. Even high up former russian generals are saying that this war is wrong and when he has lost even
