The most in-depth coverage I could find is from Russian state media.

From what I’m reading, it looks like a full-on coup has taken place. Both Russian and American media have reported the seizure of the parliament building, with Russian media further reporting the seizure of the presidential administration building.
American-aligned media report heavily referencing US State department media reports:

Mixing up C and S, leaving out articles, confusion of simple present and present progressive tenses. Hmm these are common English errors Russian speakers make.
The author portrays an evolution of social and economic theory that passes from Marx to Weber to Foucault. In other words, Marx without Lenin. The tactic is diversionary rather than disinformative. Insofar as you will discuss Marxism, it will be in the context of critiques of Marx made by academics operating in capitalist countries. I don’t mean to say that Weber’s or Foucault’s theories are entirely wrong headed, just that as long as you are occupied with them you will be ignoring the strains of Marxist theory that have underpinned any actually successful Marxist political project.
If you want to pick nits though, this passage made me squint:
Democratic government was the result of a political revolution of a new class-the commercial and industrial capitalists or, as Marx called them, the bourgeoisie.
Here the author is stating without citation that Marx believed democracy was achieved by bourgeois revolution. Big if true. Perhaps a certain kind of democracy within a certain class? Where did Marx make this claim?
What do you think of weeb’s take that this is a spoiling attack?

If the source is ‘Iran Observer’ or some crap then people will make fun of you.
Moscow Times was posted a few months ago, and there was surprisingly little ridicule. But that was off the mega.

Yo I have never listened to Kino, and I don’t know anything about them. I didn’t even know the Russian name for the CIA before I googled “ЦРУ”. It is fuzzy, but that’s what it looks like to me if that is indeed a label.
Edit: the letters are written in white
It’s a little fuzzy, but I think it says ЦРУ, which is the Russian spelling of CIA.
:goro:
I missed this one. It appears the RF is trying to set up reciprocal foreign asset seizures ahead of expected formal seizure of RF assets in the US. Here’s a very short article in Xinhua.
This actually looks like an attempt at de-escalation to me. The seizure of foreign property is an act of war, and the Putin administration seems to be looking for a way to appease RF entities holding those frozen assets in the US without a war declaration, should those assets be subject to formal seizure by the US. Am I reading this correctly?
The Cuban Communist Party is mad at the German Embassy over a Facebook post.
On that same date, Press Freedom Day, 8 161 kilometers from Berlin, the German Embassy in Cuba, and through the Facebook account of that legation, consummated a gross act of interference and flagrant violation of international standards for diplomatic relations, by altering the text and photo on the front page of Granma with erasures typical of (un)classified documents, even on the name of Palestine. “There is not much to see here,” the publication added.
To my ear, this style is the Nashville version of “Adult Contemporary” ca. 2010. Similar things were happening in Evangelical Christian music at the time.
does this style actually sound good?
It sold a lot of records. A more interesting question might be “is it country?”, or “who gets to decide what country is?”. It’s probably better not to argue about that sort of thing on the internet though. Instead, here’s a video of a contemporary christian group from Nashville performing a minor novelty country hit. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ow1pV2MqN8
but they’re not wrong
I’ve spent some listless evenings laying on the floor listening to that track on repeat.
