You can find the answer to your question on this graph in dynamics over 15 years, which reflects survey by the same Levada Center with question “Which political system do you prefer?”
Red stands for Soviet one, orange is “current one”, blue is Western democracy, black is no responce and gray is hard to say.

MBFC is ROFL, even when everything is clear, they publish some slop bordering on conspiracy theories.
If we click on the first link, we’ll see that New Eastern Outlook is listed as a periodical of The Institute of Oriental Studies of the Russian Academy of Sciences on the website of said institution.
It looks like:
The Institute of Oriental Studies of the Russian Academy of Sciences: New Eastern Outlook is our periodical.
MBFC: Ownership information is not transparent!! You share the same adress!! That must mean something!!
regurgitating Russian media sources.
You’re in the world news community, the world is not limited to Western countries or Western media.
I use telegram bot @GlomaticoPinkMusicBot , it allows to download entire albums without apple music subscription
I had gotten 100+ without port forwarding. Port forwarding is overrated, seeding time and popularity of torrent is what really matters.
And Russia’s veto in the UN Security Council has helped undermine the enforcement of sanctions imposed on North Korea. The most astonishing thing is that, in terms of profit/loss, friendship with Russia has proven to be much more beneficial for North Korea than friendship with the US/EU has been for Ukraine.
I don’t understand why this was downvoted, if such a proposal had been made in 2022 during first Istanbul talks, it could have prevented another three years of meatgrinder. As during those talks Russia openly discussed getting troops back to pre-2022 border as possible option, and European alliance instead of NATO (i.e. no US troops and nukes in Europe) is also offer that is hard to ignore. So after some negotiation it might become a deal; sadly noone offered that.
none of them are worth it
It depends on the content that you seek for. And with that caveat, your statement may be 100% true or 100% wrong.
I am an avid underground metal music enjoyer and also a RED member, and i could name a dozen of public sources (ranging from soulseek to deathgrindclub or metalarea) that would offer you much better libraries then RED. So i’m using RED like once in two monthes and let my FL tokens expire. But that’s just the one specific use case, people with different musical tastes may find RED much more useful or even the main source for expanding their collection.
So actually if you can get everything you need from public sources, there’s no reason at all to bother with private trackers. And if you can’t, then you have no choice but to accept the rules of the game.
Google for VDSina. There you’ll be able to rent VDS which is invulnerable for DMCA, and then configure it for streaming, DDL hosting and so on.
This apt observation helps to understand why no one takes this “free world” seriously anymore and why the Global South and BRICS are on the rise.
The article’s headline falsely equates Russian dissidents with shills on USAID payroll.
Literally the same words said in December 2021 could possibly prevent:
The Trump administration is just saying loud what all the other NATO governors have been hiding. No one ever planned to fight Russia for Ukraine and the only destiny for Ukrainian aboriginals is to be used as proxy cannon fodder to fight one of NATO’s bogeymen.
NATO countries never cared about Ukraine’s casualities to the point that they decided that Ukrainian lives were worth less than a signed piece of paper with the aforementioned statement: ‘No NATO for Ukraine’. Everything that happens to the people of Ukraine is just collateral damage on the way to the main goal – to harm Russia. The colonizer mentality (so well known to many NATO countries) never changes.
Commentators here seem to be missing the main point - Trump is simply responding positively to Zelensky’s offer.
Proof: https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/02/04/ukraine-trump-rare-earth-minerals/ => https://archive.ph/LXP0J
Ukraine previously offered U.S. access to its rare earth minerals in an effort to keep the Trump administration engaged in supporting the country militarily in its fight with Russia.
World history knows many battles fought for independence, but the last 10 years of Ukraine’s history represent a unique exaple of a ruthless struggle to become a colony.
You’re 100% correct here. My observation is based solely on Trump’s rhetoric and i also have heavy doubts that he will stop the war and bring peace to war-torn area. Anyway, if he really tries and succeeds, it would be twice more embarrassing for his predecessors, as it would mean that they could have done the same, but instead preferred to have tens of thousands Ukrainians killed and dozens of Ukrainian cities razed to the ground.
The craziest thing of our time is that right-wing bigots claim to end the war fast with peace talks, while so-called “progressives” are going to prolong their proxy war as long as there is at least one Ukrainian still alive.
This article claims that the world’s third largest railroad network (after US and China) will collapse in a few days and this claim is based on a report from an anonimous telegram channel (“VChK-OGPU”) and an audio file provided by some Ukrainian propagandist. Moreover, it’s accompanied by a charming remark that “Newsweek was unable to independently verify the authenticity of the audio clip or VChK-OGPU’s report”. None of such “sources” are suitable for a post to pass the moderation in the lemmy worldnews community (be it .ml or .world), but for a Newsweek article it is somehow sufficient.
And the funniest thing is that Newsweek has MBFC Credibility Rating of “HIGH CREDIBILITY”. This is how “highly credible” MBFC approved journalism looks like.
While absence of China in Top 10 may be somehow explained by The Great Firewall, the absence of India, Turkey and Russia is totally implausible. Or they might be scanning only torrents of movies with English audio.
It’s revealing that you care so much about white mercs from Wagner but totally ignore casualties of black Malian troops killed by local AlQaeda branch with support of Ukraine. Seems like it’s impossible to be supportive towards Ukraine without being at least a bit racist.
What’s really under doubt here is your reading ability and knowledge of geography:

MBFC Credibility Rating: LOW CREDIBILITY
Failed Fact Checks: 6 articles on Voice of America and 1 article on Newsweek
“RT is a propagandistic outlet funded by the Russian government. This is true because it is claimed by a propagandistic outlet funded by the US government”
Regardless of credibility of RT, MBFC is ROFL
