Definitely, and the whole Russia good America bad narrative is not really accurate either. Russia's constitution also has a kind of bill of rights, but there are many loopholes. The Russian government does have an authoritarian edge.
I believe too many folks here are way too naive about Russia. Its a very mixed bag, it still has many characteristic authoritarian elements like much of its history. Just because they are making nationalist-protectionist maneuvers in their own best interest, doesn't make it an analogue to the America we want to reclaim.
You're missing the point though - the concept of "the precipice" is the event that pushes someone from where they were to somewhere new.
That doesn't involve connecting dots - that involves experiencing something.
In this case, the experience is the dissonance making a drive by in front of their face, in the areas they're already looking at.
As I said - the expectations it wakes up everyone, is incredibly unrealistic.
But it is as unrealistic as the expectation that it doesn't wake up anyone.
This board isn't about groaning - it's about analyzing the potential in events so that we can gain an understanding of the dynamics in play so that we may help and encourage one another in the ongoing battle.
If you don't agree with my analysis - cool!
But what's the point of groaning if you disagree?
What's the outcome of what you shared? Encouragement? Clarity? Correction?
Remember what Sundance said about censorship and Russia. It's not designed to keep Russia out, it designed to keep the west in, so we can't see what freedoms exist in Russia, so we can use crypto that is being used in East block.
I'm inclined to think there is more to this story and that crucial details are left unsaid....
If YouTube is allowed, absolutely.

Like what rumble was asked to comply with.
I wouldn’t worry about being censored in Russia.
Worry about the USA first.
And yet rumble operates freely in the USA?
*Russiah
Well what did they request be blocked??
The Internet is censored in Russia this is well known.
Any website that reaches a certain size has to register with the government.
They change this law about 5 years ago
YouTube isn’t blocked in Russia. What does YouTube comply with that Rumble doesn’t?
Wait I thought russia was the good guys fighting the good fight against the cabal, why would they shut down a source of news that hosts Q truths??
To bring awareness to relatively unknown Rumble? 🤷🏻♂️ People want what they’re told is forbidden.
Possibly, very possible, possibly maybe.

For sure, but it's very fun to point out to leftists that Putin understands American freedoms better than they do.
Oh, those freedoms may not be entirely intact in Russia but he is demonstrably acquainted with us.
So many npc heads right now since Rumble was classified as a right wing Nazi (i.e., Russia forward) platform last year... 🤯
5G warfare
Maybe Rumble was being used by Western Intelligence to transmit critical Military information that youtube isn't allowing for either side?
Without more specific information, I am assuming the release is "lie by omission".
If it is something else, why not say what it is?
C'mon, Vladimir, let your people think for themselves.
Rumble is Black Rock so there is that.
huh?
Ok. I exaggerated. They are top 10 holders along with vanguard and state street but it is a small share. https://www.wallstreetzen.com/stocks/us/nasdaq/rum/ownership
Consider the 5d chess angle.
What does every "normie" red voter still believe? Russia = baddies.
What does every blue voter still believe? Russia = baddies.
What has every super left tech company said for the last 4 years? Russia = baddies.
What has every warhawk interview said for the last 4 years? Russia = baddies.
What has the Clintons said for the last > 4 years? Russia = baddies.
What has the Obummers said for the last > 4 years? Russia = baddies.
What has our "intelligence" agencies said for the last > 4 years? Russia = baddies.
Now let us go back to what the Twitter post was asking..
"Youtube is still operating in Russia, and everyone needs to ask what Russian demands Google and Youtube are complying with?"
So the public has been told for a LONG time by every mainstream authority out there - that RUSSIA IS THE BADDIES.
And here - we have a demonstration - of Youtube, who has previously said they hate the Baddies - now, COMPLYING with the baddies.
Normies see what? Youtube, complying with the Baddies.
errr, zrrrc, blinc, zhaaart! - system malfunction!
It is true, that many normies are going to walk right by this - intentionally shielding their sheep eyes from the dissonance.
But it's also true, that there will be some that are peeled off by this dissonance.
And that is how we do this - one precipice at a time. Everyone's precipice is different. Little by little - the sheep are awakened.
You're expecting normies and lefties to connect dots... on their own?
You're missing the point though - the concept of "the precipice" is the event that pushes someone from where they were to somewhere new.

Or a different function?
The plot thickens…
Remember what Sundance said about censorship and Russia. It's not designed to keep Russia out, it designed to keep the west in, so we can't see what freedoms exist in Russia, so we can use crypto that is being used in East block.
How about the whole story and not just some claim of "Russia officially" blocked rumble.
Who cares, we don’t live in Russia.
