I don’t know if I agree with that second part, but yes, it’s a shame we ever crossed that line. Easily exercised censorship like this is a lot more damaging than, say, trying to ban a zine or newspaper; and will inevitably be used for the wrong purposes in the future.

Domains are expected to be set up to stay online without intervention for years(1-10 years + even) it’s not right to yank domains away in a couple weeks time span just to virtue signal your support for the anti-Russia agenda. Some of these domains are probably used for internal services for hospitals, medical equipment, domestic transit, electricity grid, telecommunications and more so when you fuck with domains it causes all sorts of problems for real people who had nothing to do with the invasion of Ukraine (which arguably Ukraine started, contrary to the msm message, Ukraine allegedly bombed schools and homes for 8 years in DPR) interview with civilians on Patrick Lancasters channel seem to support the claim that Ukraine was the aggressor.

I see. Again, totally agree that it is wrong to yank domains away, but not at all with your 'virtue signalling' and causing 'problems for real people' or 'anti-russian agenda' (Russia is destroying an entire country as we speak, there is no hidden agenda needed).

Invading and bombing a country causes "problems for real people".

Ukraine didn't invade Russia. Ukraine didn't start a conflict in the DPR either, Russia invaded Crimea while fuelling the separatists in Donbas. The world doesn't forget. I can't believe you eat up the idea that Ukraine is the aggressor. But also don't this is a place I'd like to discuss this topic. Farewell.

Hello, Russian propagandist. I am from another side of a conflict and deeply disagree with your allegations to look at what has been happening 8 years and not to look at whas happened earlier. But youl first sentence (about stay online w/o intervention) is exactly my message to HN crowd.
