Description

My guest is the proprietor of the Monomakhos blog, which covers culture, politics, and religion. He penned two recent pieces about what's going on with Russia and Ukraine. We sift through the lies and propaganda of the regime and try to present a case that you won't hear on CNN or read in the NYT. There are progressives pushing for war with a nuclear armed country because they think Putin gave them Trump. There are neo-cons pushing for war with a nuclear armed country because they are idiot dupes being used by mega-corporations and weapons manufacturers. There are people that screamed at you to mask your kids and inject them with an experimental drug yet now pretend to care about the lives of people in Ukraine. Obviously, truth is the first casualty when it comes to war. We are witnessing that tenfold currently.
