Thanks for the comment. Would love to exchange emails with you and ask you a few questions -- I'm particularly interested in hearing more about Serbian Strategic Culture Foundation being shut down. My email is riley (dot) waggaman (at) gmail (dot) com if you have time to chat :)
If you gave us your serbian translation we could run it through a translator. But the video offers nothing... no subtitles... nothing.. Or is there a way??
It uses the chrome store for its extensions library, so you can still download google translate. It even opens private windows in Tor if you want to use that.
I've just downloaded Gikken's Mate translator extension for tryout; seems to work.
FWIW, I also use hopefully-uncensored presearch.com as my search engine.
I try to avoid all things google, in the naive hope that my privacy and security might be marginally improved. My goal is to extend the time it takes NSA/Google/MSM, or whatever, to access all my personal info from 16 to 20 seconds. Take that!
Note: most translators services involve sending the data to the translator's servers. Those servers naturally have to know where the request came from(otherwise they can't send the translation back). They also obviously the contents of anything they translate. If the implications of that is an issue find translators that work off-line.
//also use hopefully-uncensored presearch.com as my search engine//
//The next step is to begin layering our own index on top of this platform so that community-driven results can supersede the external results, yet still provide users with comprehensive answers while the Presearch index is in development.//
^translation: they currently use other search engine's index/ranking which unavoidably includes whatever censorship those search engines built into their search results.
Most alt-search engines are like this, e.g. 'meta' search engines. For example StartPage is mainly a privacy-oriented(how oriented these corps are is another Q) front for google search results. And DuckDuckGo is the same for Bing. Most of the 'indi' meta search engines are fronts for Bing. Since you like Brave it is worth pointing out they have their own search engine now https://search.brave.com, though it is also mostly piggybacking off Google/Bing despite what they claim, there are plenty of searches which yield the exact same links in the exact same order. Search engines that are actually doing their own crawling/indexing/ranking ect will have dramatically different links and ordering. Building large comprehensive indexes is hard/expensive which is why a lot 'supplement' their indi results with the big player's results.
Thank you!! I have been to Russia (Moscow) half a dozen times and absolutely loved the experiences. I am an avid student of Russian history and love the culture. And yes, what I have experienced there, first hand, with what I see depicted in media has little correlation. Thank you for this article!!
There you go again, Riley, telling people that they should get information about Russia from..... Russians, instead of from reliable commentators and bloggers who know exactly what the hero-needing activist masses in the West want, someone they can look up to and pin their hopes upon. 😂
Georgy Sviridov - surprised I have never heard of him until just now. Close contemporary of Shostakovitch - but neo-romantic (sounds bourgeois to me!) - close to the Orthodox sung liturgy tradition (how did he survive!? - died peacefully in 1998) - but connection to Russian"folk" traditions may have saved him. Actually, I know of no composers of any note who perished in the purges - Stalin took a run at Shostakovitch but that may have been just for sport - the whole group of them Dimitri and Prokofiev at the forefront, were treated with great care during the great Patriotic war - shifted around as needed well behind the front lines during the worst of it.
"I Cried"... So Russian... and yet, what a great idea for a forum here in the States. With the eye-popping, mind-blasting degradation we are served up on a daily basis, just think of what fun stories we could share! Laughter through tears...as the immortal Gogol wrote.
Spasiba, Edvard! This is literally exactly what I've been wanting... but didn't realize it until now. Will brush up my Russian and jump on board. What a service you are, as unofficial ambassador to east and west.
"One of the great mysteries of the 21st century is why western alt media coverage of Russia bears little resemblance to Russian alt media coverage of Russia. "
Not a mystery when one knows how to judge supposed "alt" news channels. Because majority of them are govt agenda pushers in disguise. Which is logical. Main stream media is owned by lying jooz and has become obsolete, hence the race to gain subscribers masquerading as alt news channels.
So huge thanks for being on the right side in this fight! To you and everyone else who is not afraid to think and speak the truth and outside of the imposed box.
Cheers out of Zagreb, Croatia.
If anyone here is from ex-yu, please check my blog and subscribe. I write to inform Croatians who arent good with foreign languages with things that are not found in any mass media, or any alt for that matter. In fact, I tend to have a will to write certain things only because I dont see others doing it. Things I find very important. And if I see the need to report local happenings to foreign public, I will add content in english.
I agree with this. I've commented frequently that the net effect of people such as Doug Macgregor and Scott Ritter to quote the two most prominent just now is simply to give the impression that the USA etc. needs to give more support to Kiev.
They simply do not push the truth: that the whole west needs to give less support.
Moram priznati da sam zahrđal po pitanju čirilice, no snašel bum se več nekak! Bacam oko!
Ugodan Vam dan.
Opa, imate u svome tekst VRLO zanimljivih informacija o toj svinji Grefu! Sber bank je u principu jedna izdajnićka ustanova!! Znakovito je da Duma sve to dopušta!
Da Vas pitam, znate li ima li u Rusiji puno ljudi koji to tako vide? Ili kao u Hrvatskoj, to vide samo ljudi, patrioti, koji se ne boje vlasti i koji nisu na ničijem platnom spisku?
I kakvo je stanje po tom pitanju kod Vas u Srbiji? Bude li se Beograđani? U Zagrebu je po tom pitanju koma. Cenzura vlada a večina ljudi je i dalje veoma površna... no tu je velika cenzura i nema platformi da se ljudi druže i dijele svoje poglede pa je teško reći koliko zapravo ljudi shvaća i vidi pravu istinu.
Hura patriotizam... bogme dobar naziv za "patriotizam" koji stiže sa TVa! Slična situacija je i u HR. Meni se čini da tek 3% ljudi uopće shvaća što se uistinu događa. Pa čak ni ljudi poput Sladoljeva nisu si dali truda da zagrebu dublje u temu plandemije. Sladoljev je na kraju utihnuo i sada onaj Pavelić ima predavanja na koja jedva tko dođe. A na tim predavanjima sve stariji ljudi koji u večini ne govore strane jezike i koji samo otprilike znaju da su cjepiva štetna. I niti jedan koji je imao pristup državnim medijima se po svome shvaćanju plandemije nije pokazao kao što se pokazujemo mi, obićni mali ljudi - kmetovi.
I isto tako i kod nas, ima sve više ljudi koji shvaćaju da Rusija nije nekakav spasioc civilizacije, ali ovih koji bezumn navijaju za Ukrajinu ima nešto više. Doduše, ja baš i nisam dobar izvor takve informacije, ne krećem se previše među ljudima i nemam puno poznatih koje mogu anketirati. Sliku o tome uglavnom stvaram kada vidim komentare ljudi na nezavisnim alt portalima: dokumentarac, provjeri, hop hr, direktno, logično... a to je dosta manji postotak ljudi nego se da vidjeti na main stream portalima i društvenim mrežama. Na main-streamu se i dalje gura samo državna propaganda i zavadi pa vladaj. No kao i Vi, imam dojam da ipak ima puno više ljudi koji sada odbijaju da ih se hrani propagandom pa traže alternative. To je i razlog zašto sam se uopće odlučio pisati. Jer ne vidim da to radi itko drugi.
Je, po tom pitanju se slažemo. A i vidim da ste ubrali da nama "kmetovima" sa svih strana rade o glavi i djeci i rodnoj grudi. Svakako nema smisla da ulazimo u nacionalistićki živi pijesak, koji je samo oružje protiv naroda. Jer kao što sam u svom istraživanju otkrio, povijest koju su nas na silu učili u školama je jedna velika laž. I taj naš ex-yu nacionalizam se temelji na lažima. Moja generacija to može sagledati iz jedne perspektive koju moji roditelji jednostavno nisu mogli. I meni su dostupne informacije o kojima su oni mogli samo sanjati. Meni su oba djeda Hrvati, bili u partizanima. A jedna baka je rodom iz Niša. No ja sam imao prilike odrastati malo u komunizmu pa malo u "demokraciji" i stoga imam i drugačiju perspektivu na svijet. A i takav sam, borac protiv lošeh autoriteta od najmanjih nogu. Da ne duljim o sebi, ima dosta napisanog u mojem uvodnom postu. Ako želite, to je tu: https://siriusispodstruje.substack.com/p/uvod
A što se tiče pitanja o podršci Ukrajini, na žalost mi se čini da su to sve mlađi ljudi koji gutaju masovne medije i bezuvjetno vjeruju profesorima i koje su naučili da još bezumnije tendiraju prema zapadnjačkim agendama, bezumni konzumerizam i površno shvaćanje svijeta. Javno školstvo u nas namješteno je na teški mediokretizam. Pa takav sustav ispucava robote i korisne idiote za sistem. No tako je samo oko velikih gradova i oko centara u koje su se zavukli ovi što nam pljačkaju rodnu grudu. Takvi i njihovi dupelisci se niti ne znaju informirati a niti ih išta zanima, jer imaju i jer ih zabole za išta osim da imaju još više, ne pitajući se odakle i preko čijih leđa. Mi to zovemo 500 Tuđmanovih obitelji i njihovi dupelisci, cijeli državni aparat im je privatni servis, kao i u Srbiji i u cijeloj regiji, osim u Sloveniji koja je prodala dupe Nijemcima i Austrijancima. Oni su mala zemlja i njima je dat malo viši standard tako da ne pomišljaju na ikakve samostalne poteze.
Dakle, mislim da tih što bezumno podržavaju nema tako puno, ali su jedini zastupljeni u mass medijima. I tu je problem. Teško je bez tog predznanja stvoriti pravu sliku pa se čini da ih ima jako puno. Teško bi mi bilo to svesti na postotke, no mislim da ih i nema tako puno, i da ih svakim danom sve manje i manje slušaju ovi neopredjeljeni. Stariji ljudi su čini mi se oguglali na svo to maltretiranje i zanima ih samo preživjeti sljedeći mjesec.
Povjerenje u mass medije i državu nije nikad bilo tako nisko. Veliki razlog su grozote uzrokovane plandemijom kojoj svjedočimo. I zato se sve to i održava povećavanjem totalitarizma i mićenjem korisnih idiota. Ali ne može to, bar po meni, trajati dovijeka.
Eto.
Moje isprike što sam tek danas odgovorio, imam obaveza za troje ljudi.
Cijenim vašu otvorenost i pokušao sam Vam odmah parirati. No shvatiću ako čete misliti da su moja razmišljanja i zaključci pre-radikalni.
Bacite oko na moje ranije objave o kovidu. Ovdje čete takodjer moči vidjeti kako neki, uključujući i mene, u Hrvatskoj vide stvari.
It basically claims Russia is offering 'free' education to non-Russians, but I can't help but feel there might be some sort of shot mandate catch or WEF nonsense or 'surprise Ukraine war military conscription' or some such. Could you delve and explain?
Yes, please, do, Riley. My son is considering this. If I were a million years younger, I'd hop on it myself. My son is fluent and spent a year in Peter.
my russian knowledge is limited to a few words related to crochet. That won't help much. So I will continue trusting you. Specially since the tries on telegram went into space.... not a computer expert either.
You just have to remember that most of the sources you quote here are paid by various Western organizations. Or were paid. I know quite few of people, who work for those, or at least, used to work. Of course, it depends on what kind of results you are interested in.
I just keep reading your stuff so i don't have to learn russian :)
That's the spirit! :)
Thanks for the comment. Would love to exchange emails with you and ask you a few questions -- I'm particularly interested in hearing more about Serbian Strategic Culture Foundation being shut down. My email is riley (dot) waggaman (at) gmail (dot) com if you have time to chat :)
If you gave us your serbian translation we could run it through a translator. But the video offers nothing... no subtitles... nothing.. Or is there a way??
If you care about privacy, you can try Brave Browser instead of chrome
https://brave.com/compare/chrome/
It uses the chrome store for its extensions library, so you can still download google translate. It even opens private windows in Tor if you want to use that.
I've just downloaded Gikken's Mate translator extension for tryout; seems to work.
FWIW, I also use hopefully-uncensored presearch.com as my search engine.

Much useful additional info I had missed: thanks!
Thank you, Riley. The most useful email of my entire day.
you are most welcome, Paula.

deepl.com Does a good job translating in my opinion.
