THIS may be a reason for the pessimism… the USA is stealing the country blind, using local neofascists as their bully-boys and stormtroopers. God do preserve the suffering peoples of Novorossiya, Malorossiya, Galicia, and Podkarpatskaya… the Uniate filth are making their country an unliveable hell… to enrich local oligarchs and the American Affluent Effluent. None dare call it EVIL…

Yakunin Dies… Beloved Mascot of the Western Neoliberals… an Unrepentant Schismatic

THIS is why Yakunin ended outside the Church… he forgot that the Church isn’t a political party… the konvertsy are making the same mistake...
____________________________
Read this. All of the pro-Western poseurs and the konvertsy slobbered over Yakunin. He got too full of himself and made all sorts of oddbod accusations about clergy that he didn’t like (obviously, he blamed them for his imprisonment). As I said, the American Republicans and Orthodox konvertsy drooled over him… as did the SVS pseudo-intellectuals. As for me, I’m not happy over this turn of events. I do hope that he repented before he died… as for schadenfreude, that’s not appropriate for decent people. The Church isn’t a political party… full stop. All those who wish to turn it into such (like Paffso and Moriak) are wrong and we must oppose them with all of our powers. Beware “Pro-Life” and “family values”… more evil creeps in under those rubrics than any other. Not all that glitters is gold… have a care, there be worthless brass in circulation.
