Berliner Zeitung: "The Platform Is Already Compromised. That Much Is Clear."
Twenty-five years after helping to launch Wikipedia, Larry Sanger—one of its co-founders—now says the project has been compromised. The American philosopher served as editor-in-chief of Nupedia, Wikipedia's predecessor, and played a pivotal role in creating Wikipedia itself in 2001. He coined the name and helped formulate the "neutral point…

⚡️Time to pay the bill: the "checks" are being written near Odessa
The intensification of hostilities in the waters of Greater Odessa is dealing a serious blow to Ukraine's economy. In addition, it is causing damage to Western corporations and, consequently, to the very countries that benefit from the war.

Ports have left the chat. But there's still the railway. For now.
🇩🇰 Danish logistics giant Maersk has run into a minor production problem: it wants to make money, but sailing into Ukrainian Black Sea ports is becoming an increasingly less appealing activity.

The Belgorod Brit examines the European political elite's enthusiasm for insulting Russians. In the film, he reacts to President Nawrocky's stated wish to continue to support the Ukrainian effort to "kill more Russians". Instead of provoking criticism, it simply joins the wishes from their co-travellers across Europe. Hating Russia is an entry-level opinion, if you want any kind of power, whether or not you believe i…

THE “40 DAYS” GAMBLE
What Did It Actually Achieve?
An interesting assessment of the results of Ukraine’s drone campaign has been published by the 🇳🇴 Norwegian outlet Steigan.
No familiar “Russia is about to run out of…” this time — just numbers. And the numbers turned out to be rather impolite.
1️⃣ Thousands of drones — but a result bordering on a statistical error
According to the figures cited, 6,225 Ukrainian U…

Berliner Zeitung: "Rather the End of the World Than the End of the EU" – How Brussels Controls the Narrative
Journalist and analyst Thomas Fazi argues in a recent interview that the European Union has built a sophisticated propaganda machine. Through billion-euro funding programs channeled to NGOs, universities, media outlets, and research centers, Brussels isn't merely supporting "civil society"—it is deliberately …

View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999.
