On July 23, the infamous "judge" Oleg Nefedov declared as extremist the non-existent organization “International Movement of Satanism”. One of our participants is already estimating a potential sentence for owning a collection of metal band vinyl records.

In January 2023, historian and sociologist Dina Khapayeva told Verstka that the idea of a “death cult” is deeply embedded in Putin’s rhetoric. Instead of having meaningless, hopeless, and poor life, he invites Russians to die “for the Motherland.” The only remaining question is: who together with friends have been making Russian lives meaningless and hopeless for the past quarter of a century?

On July 25, journalist Dmitry Kolezev, who has been living in Portugal for a year and a half, was added by Russian authorities to the list of “terrorists and extremists.” This comes on top of a 2.5-year sentence for his videos and articles about the Russian army’s crimes in Bucha.

Let’s not forget that some officials—even outside Russia—still take this list into account when making decisions.

Being added to this list also discourages people from taking risks and donating. That’s why we stand in support of Dmitry.

On July 22, historian and Memorial employee Konstantin Morozov expressed his opinion in an interview on the Eidmannews YouTube channel on why the level of repression in Russia now exceeds that of Soviet times: in the USSR, the old fear was enough—now, it is not.

Today, we published a new video by Rusya Rassvet on our YouTube channel. She shares a conversation with her aunt from three years ago via video call. It seems to me that she’s talking about the need to reflect on how our words, actions, and beliefs shape the future. What do you think? Share your thoughts in the comments.
