The most precious commodity you have is your attention. You don’t have to waste it on poor-faith debates or arguments with strangers if you don’t think they’ll be productive. You can prioritize the things that matter to you and make your life richer.

I once received an electric shock during torture only for writing for Radio Liberty: I was told that it was "a CIA structure and an enemy of Russia", and for that reason alone I was already guilty.
Now, the "enemy of Russia" is being destroyed by America itself, and my torture seems doubly in vain.

False narratives aren’t just circulating online, they now dictate reality in power structures.
Disordered discourse doesn’t just distort truth, it creates an alternative reality that enforces itself.
Not through control. Not through strategy. But because it’s self-sustaining.
