Maybe you can read this article (about LGBT activist Kirill Kalugin‘s brave solo protest against the war in Ukraine on Palace Square in Petersburg). We can’t read it because Vladimir Putin is busy building a strong state in which inflammatory opposition news sites like Grani.ru are too much for our weak nerves and tender brains.
