‘If I stay silent, my heart will burst’ How a Russian surgeon went from believing Kremlin propaganda to risking her freedom to oppose the war — Meduza
meduza.io
Olga Avdeyeva is a surgeon and mother of five from Izhevsk, the capital of Russia’s Republic of Udmurtia. In August 2022, she left an anti-war message beneath a large Z symbol on the side of the local theater that she passed every day on her way to work. Almost a year later, Olga was charged with “discrediting” the Russian Armed Forces. She’s now facing a fine of up to 300,000 rubles ($3,330) or up to five years in prison, but she insists she has no regrets. The independent outlet 7x7 recently told Avdeyeva’s story. Meduza retells it in English.

    Yes it’s from The Office.

    You should ask the one who said “fascist save life” what their purpose was. I think you’re mixing them with me. My comments are clear on Putin’s fascism
