On December 22, 1849, he was to be executed as a state criminal along with 20 freethinkers, members of the Petrashevsky circle. They were taken to the Semyonovsky parade ground, and a priest read a prayer. The condemned were dressed in white shirts and divided into threes for the order of execution. The first three had sacks put on their heads and were tied to poles, and an officer commanded a platoon of soldiers: "Aim!"
And at that moment a cry suddenly rang out: "Stop the execution!" a messenger who had galloped up read the emperor's decree on pardoning and replacing the death penalty with various terms of hard labor. All those pardoned were already preparing to part with life and could not come to their senses; one of the condemned, the nobleman Nikolai Grigoriev, went mad from the experience for the rest of his days.

The reason for such disgrace on Dostoevsky, who was then 28 years old, were the meetings that took place in the apartment of Mikhail Vasilyevich Butashevich-Petrashevsky, who was a representative of the intellectual elite, served as a translator in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and in his free time was engaged in freethinking and wrote sharp theoretical articles, promoting socialism and democracy.

It's not going to be too long until women are dragged off the streets bundled into white vans for fodder.
This isn't about defending Ukraine its overt population destruction to destabilise whatever's left after Russia defeats NATO.

Forget for a moment about the genocide of Gaza. Look at what "they" have done to the kids of Israel. Zionists have no respect for their own kids. How do you expect them to respect the kids of others?

But this is just the beginning. The study covered only 2 years and only one condition. Extrapolate into the future and add things like cancers, depression, infertility, gender dysphoria and heart attacks to the mix.

A quick commentary on the "Piss Summit"

I might not be able to upload much more or do lives for a while

My Fellow Duranianss.

Yes, it's happened again. I have been assaulted by a vicious Malware Bot Virus or whatever 911 Socks is and this thing is bad !

However I wanted to give you a "peace" of my mind concerning the "Piece" or piss, as Elensky calls it, as this thing fell to pieces before it even happened.

Coincidentally on the very SAME DAY this crap happened Saudi Arabia DROPPED the US Petrodollar as a buying currency and NO ONE absolutely NO ONE is talking about this fact anywhere !!!

Hope to see you all asap.
