*Russia must not be humiliated in Ukraine, says Emmanuel Macron.*

I agree that humiliating Putin would be counterproductive. At the same time, giving him a victory would be disastrous.

Can we find a way to deny him victory but give him a way to save face? It seems that Macron has not.

Many Russian-speaking Ukrainians are learning to speak Ukrainian instead, in rejection of Putin and Russia.

I think it will be tragic if Ukrainians come out of this war hating Russia. I urge them to target their hatred narrowly at Putin.

A part of the population of Odessa wants to eliminate Russia-derived names from the city. For the same reason stated above, I think that is a misguided idea.

Ukraine has turned around the battle in Sievierodonetsk.

Putin allows YouTube to remain accessible in Russia despite its carrying Western news.

Florida made the Special Olympics drop its vaccination requirement by threatening to fine it 27 million dollars.

If the organization fails to rail against Florida, and announce that it will never hold an event again in a state that won't permit its health requirements, that will constitute its permanent submission to the Disease Party.
