I am genuinely sad that Ian Welsh can only spout Russian propaganda these days. It’s like watching someone previously interesting and intelligent get Alzheimer’s. I think Covid (not having it, witnessing it) broke his brain and it was all downhill from there.

It’s disturbing that things like that can just…happen to people. One day you’re normal and the next, you’re dancing to Putin’s tune. I shudder to think that something like that could happen to me.
