1/ Complaints about Internet blocks from Russian Instagram celebrities are obscuring a host of other problems, many caused by the Ukraine war, argues journalist Anastasia Kashevarova. Her long list highlights the increasingly severe difficulties faced by Russia's population. ⬇️

2/ Kashevarova writes:

"About the women's rebellion. I am against gender rebellions and any others, since they are destructive and distract from solving real problems towards confrontation between the sexes, redistribution of spheres of influence, struggle of individuals."

3/ "Here there is no longer any smell of protection of human rights, there is a draining of the painful things and presenting the people's pain in the light of some kind of stupidity and foolishness.

4/ "I have a different goal. I want the following categories of the population to be heard in our country:

– families of those missing in action in the Special Military Operation;

– mobilised and conscripts who were forced to sign a contract, or had it signed for them;

5/ "– those who trumpet about the terrible bacchanalia in the ranks of the army, where there should be discipline and unity – extortions, beatings, fraud, drug trafficking;

6/ "– working mothers, whose [state] support is ill-conceived and practically non-existent, all state support goes to social parasites who do not even properly raise children and live on taxes that are paid by the working mother;

7/ "– young people who can't work in their field because they won't be able to feed their families, or who can't make a career because Bolshoi prima donnas are nothing compared to those who have occupied all the positions and placed their family members and friends there;

8/ "– agricultural workers, who are now at risk because the authorities can come and kill chickens/cows/goats without explanation or reason. And no amount of compensation will cover the damage;

9/ "– IT specialists who have long been talking about cyber threats, but no one listened to them, and now all the actions of the Ministry of Digital Development and Roskomnadzor are only worsening the situation and pushing the country into destruction;

10/ "– those who live under constant drone attacks; those who suffered, whose relatives died, but compensation does not compensate for the damage and does not resurrect the deceased children;

11/ "– Donbas residents who still don't have water, who can't enter the Russian legal system because the new regulations don't fully address the situation there – people can't re-register their homes, their real estate and businesses are being squashed,…

12/ …and there's nowhere to seek protection. Some categories of the population still aren't provided with medication;

– families of the seriously wounded who need long-term rehabilitation, not just 20 days;

13/ "– children should be heard by adults. It's children who suffer the most - they're orphaned, abandoned by their families and the state, beaten, raped, and murdered;

– psychologists who note a high rate of mental disorders and depression among the population;

14/ "– security forces who expect and are already recording rising crime rates among teenagers, migrants, Roma, and former prisoners returning from the Special Military Operation;

"– volunteers who work [to help] the front line and save lives in hot spots.

15/ "Where there's no Ministry of Emergency Situations or military, they work, by themselves!

These are just a few of the issues we raise and offer solutions to.

16/ "I don't want these issues to be obscured by a rivalry between the smart and the beautiful, between show business and politics.

Don't channel the people's pain. It's all just a farce. My poor country.

17/ "P.S.: I forgot to mention small and medium-sized businesses, which should be preserving jobs and paying ever-increasing taxes, while their advertising and technical capabilities are being increasingly restricted." /end
