Women arrested in Moscow for not speaking
2022-03-15 04:32:51
A woman in Moscow speaks to a cameraman. "I'd like to ask your opinion," she says, "If I could just say two words." She then holds up a sign that literally says "Two Words" and before she can finish the sentence "Am I going to get arrested for this?" she is hauled off by five police in full body armor to a nearby police vehicle the size of a school bus.
Three of these buses are parked nearby, along with a smaller van. Aside from the windshield and left & right windows around the cab so the driver can see, the buses have no other windows, just featureless white metal walls for sides. The police came prepared to arrest a lot of people.
Another woman appears, and asks if the camera operator is only filming the opposition? He assures her that he wants to hear from all sides, and she starts to say something that sounds like support for the regime, but before she can finish her sentence she also gets hauled off by the goon squad to a waiting bus.
The Russian establishment is so afraid of any dissent that they're rounding up anyone who will even speak into a camera.

In another Russian city, Nizhny Novgorod, this woman holds up a COMPLETELY BLANK SIGN. She is immediately hauled off by the police.
In Nizhny Novgorod, Russia, a brilliant, beautiful and brave protest.

This woman holds up a *completely blank* sign, and is still taken away by police.

The two words that the phrase "two words" refers to are "No war," but it's not safe to say "No war", that will get you arrested. So people started saying "Two words," and now they're getting arrested for that. So they hold up signs saying nothing at all and then they get arrested for THAT.
The message is clear: Don't speak. Don't have an opinion. Stay home, shut up, obey.

About 14 years ago when I was on a road trip and stopped in Seattle, I was invited to a party. At this party there were these little tiny glasses sitting in a flat-bottomed bowl of ice. Thin cylinders about an inch in diameter and 4 inches tall, with thick glass at the bottom. Into these were poured frozen AKVAVIT... also known as the water of life. (More...)

Poor Metallica. All they want is to continue to put out the same weak "Heavy Metal" they've been churning out since the "And Justice For All" days? and make gooey wads of cash in the process. The problem is, people aren't buying their bound for the heavy metal scrap heap, over-produced, uninspired, tired crap. And let's face it, their various commercial endorsements won't pay for the lifestyle they've become comfortably accustomed to. Resorting to lawsuits makes perfect sense, when you need spending money. But just one lawsuit isn't going to pay their bills. So, to aid Metallica, I've composed an open letter to the boys in the band, with suggestions as to whom else they might sic their lapdog lawyers on... (More...)
