I had been sending donations to Ensemble Ptashitsa in Russia for many years. After each of their Youtube livestreams, I would send 20 dollars or so. I always received an email of gratitude from Ivan, the leader of the group. When the Russia Ukraine event started, I got my Paypal account locked and my bank account was locked as well. I was able to get my bank accounts back, but to this day cannot link Paypal to my bank account. I could no longer send donations. Ivan released a statement about not getting deceived by stories in newspapers on Ukraine and Russia, used to divide us. It was a brave statement inferring media fakery.

Thanks for sharing your experience, Brian. I rarely interact with others and when I do, it is with my age or older. I still am able to banter and joke with them. I don't blame the young people. It is this civilization that has imposed its nonhuman agenda on them. I was in a car shop a few days ago, they wanted me to scan a QR code. I told them that I don't have a SMARTphone. They couldn't believe it. They asked how I survive without one. I am grateful for the long visits with my relatives when I was young, sitting in a circle, listening to the adults tell stories. The civilization doesn't allow for that now. Thanks for your contribution, Brian. Best regards, db
