It’s 1983 and R.E.M. are named as an up-and-coming band to watch. Here’s their first national US TV appearance - two songs on Letterman.

Por eso nos pareció apropiado la apertura del álbum, #RadioFreeEurope es una canción contra la desinformación y la propaganda. Claro, el nombre no es casual, hablamos del medio financiado por EEUU para propagar su visión del mundo desde tiempos de la guerra fría. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ac0oaXhz1u8

In her speech in Tallinn, Jourová evoked memories of growing up in communist-era Czechoslovakia, as she remembered “those that did not give up on us”. She recalled her parents gathered around the radio to listen to #RadioFreeEurope or #Voice of America and “the unspoken anxiety of these moments”.

Radio Free Europe in the Cold War
Was set up as a C.I.A. bore
But then, in this fight
It's come back to the light
And to Russia's war is no longer a chore

" Recently, stickers started showing up in #russian cities. They appear to be ads for cheap sugar, but when you scan the barcodes those quick response codes took you to Current Time's website. Another one was, you know, IKEA sale. But the actual QR code took you to our YouTube channel. And we had nothing to do with that."

"Committing #warcrimes has become an integral part of how #Moscow wages war, and we shouldn’t wait to bring alleged #Russian perpetrators to #justice," argues #OleksandraMatviychuk, head of the organization that jointly won the #NobelPeacePrize this year. Matviychuk says that all crimes allegedly committed by Russian forces invading #Ukraine have a systemic nature, but the world is not yet interested in ensuring justice.

The #Holodomor was #genocide against the #Ukrainian people in the 1930's. The German parliament has introduced a resolution that recognizes this heinous crime as such. A short video offering a small glimpse of the horror #Stalin and Soviet-Russia unleashed on #Ukraine (source #RadioFreeEurope)

Friendly reminder that #RadioFreeAsia, #RadioLiberty, and #RadioFreeEurope, as well as Voice of America (#VOA) are all entirely US-funded propaganda organizations, created during the cold war to blast #propaganda at the eastern bloc, and are the source of those wacky contradictory NK haircut stories, fake leader disappearances, etc. Take posts from them with extreme caution - denouncing russia does not mean the support of US soft or hard power and historical #imperialism.
