Passion, openness and innocence, not naivety. The young are innocent, not naive, because they have not been corrupted by consciousness. You are a ship at sea, an innocent who refused to turn from your instinctive self (truth) at adolescence. We can all see this truth and innocence in the young, yet we continue to ignore what happens to us at adolescence, when we are forced to choose between staying innocent or becoming corrupted. The young question constantly, the answers given by adults don’t make sense, some just accept the nonsense, others keep questioning, refusing to give over, this road is the hardest. Thank you for staying in your own lane, the cost has been immense to you, as it is to all who take this road. Your instincts to truth and innocence, that we are all born with, are intact. Your spirit is indominatable, all the women who have come before you and suffered, which is most of us, are with you.

I don’t understand…Is it courage for you? They performed an inappropriate song about killing a person in a CHURCH. This place is really sacred for lots of ordinary religious people! Would YOU like if someone desecrate smth important for you?
If you want to make the world a better place you can volunteer and help people as much as you can instead of showing off your juvenile manner.
I don’t tell that everything’s fine in Russia or the current events but I think that such an expression of opinion is inappropriate in any case.

So you come on this stage to support a proxy war? At this point you are just being a useful idiot for USA. Russia is not gonna be defeated without massive devastation for the country of Ukraine.
The only way to save Ukraine is to ask the USA to accept a peace treaty. But unfortunately, the USA wants Russia to lose this proxy war even if it means Ukraine is completely obliterated.

Another failed Onlyfans model which is desperately trying to get the attention of the media. You and your friends were sentenced to jail not because of speaking against the Putin’s regime but for your group’s nude dancing inside the church, which is disrespectful and not ethical even for non religious people. Be thankful that you didn’t do this in Saudi Arabia as they would chop your head right away in public if you had done the same in their mosque. I’m not a Russian, and nor pro Putin either. It just seems more politically motivated TED talk than just a random motivational speech.

The “resistance” didn’t have an impact, but the woman is now preached as some kind of hero, while the full scale invasion goes right now in Ukraine. Heroes die right now, at the frontiers. There shouldn’t be a place for russian movements, resistance couldn’t be a choice for an imperialistic and chauvinistic nation.

Seriously?? Giving the platform to an absolute nitwit and claiming it’s a powerful message? What? Have people entirely lost the ability to use their critical and analytical thinking? Goodness me….
But I guess in the West this will do as long as someone positions themselves as “against Putin”. Tolkonnikova has ZERO respect in Russia because we’ve seen her deeds and heard her speak. But hey – she’s anti-Putin, and I guess for TED that’s all that matters now. Oh well.

France sees the short term economic benefits and decided to break the Unity. Imagine , if European countries all follow suit, there will be no NATO or only a weak NATO . What if Russia then Invades another European country? Macron is macaroni😅
