A couple of days ago I was watching Russian TV news when I came across this absolutely hilarious segment. I asked the “Russian Team” to subtitle it for my English speaking readers and here it is, thanks to “AE”!This war is truly one of constant and systematic disinformation and one of the many lies spread by the Empire’s corporate media is that the Russian media was “toning down” it’s criticism

This morning I was watching the pairs figure skating when it suddenly hit me: the couples were always one man and one woman. How reactionary! After all, the homo lobby wants to be called the LGBT or Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender community. Okay. But then, there is also an “asexual” or “non-sexual” community out there.
