I'm not sure i get what you mean, why put dissident between quotation marks? Do you doubt he is?
He was a member of the Right Cause political party and was expected to become chairman of its Moscow section. Chichvarkin currently lives in London, from where he has campaigned against corruption in Russia and president Vladimir Putin personally.
That's not the fact they checked though:
"Chelsea F.C. didn't edit Trump out of their FIFA Club World Cup victory photo" (quoted from your source)
Edit: I meant the first part isn't; whether he refused to leave
do you just happen to know them
I recognise the name, because of all the posts.
is there a way to check for this kind of thing?
Not sure how but since he posted on other instances i guess those posts are still up.
I might be wrong about the nature of the account, that's why I'm asking after all
Glad you do, might be the only way to find out what others think
doesn't look like a person interested in engaging with other persons
I agree it doesnt seem he is interested in engaging with other persons. Which means he could be an automated bot, and i'm not saying he couldn't be. I am saying i dont think he is, because of the quality of his posts. Both the content is good and it's placed well. But i can't give you a definite answer unfortunately.
I get your point, but the other extreme (be silent if your not willing or able to pick up a gun) is also not great. Don't want to argue with you, but point out this should be about finding the right middle ground.
Thanks for sharing, I totally believe a 4-day workweek would be beneficial for individuals and totally believe that translates to better results in certain workplaces. I am not in any way against it. The link however doesnt seem to say anything about how that trsnslates to lower healthcare cost for the state, which is what this post is about - spending less tax money. Not saying i'm in favour of Frances solution though.
I don't like this either, but I refuse to believe their real goal is 'stealing' peoples privacy' (though you can't really steal it because you can't own someone else their privacy, but that's another story). I think it is much more because of ignorance and naivety, unaware of the negative consequences. I can imagine there is a more benevolent lobby behind the scenes that would benefit from this, but EU isn't oppresive enough to benefit from accessing private data from 'regular' people.
Op was on lemm.ee before moving, his contributions aren't a recent thing. If he would be what you call a repost-bot the links would likely be from more random low-quality sources and also wouldn't be neatly posted to the most relevant community.
I doubt that, If having a day off would decrease healthcare expenses that much we would have a 4-day workweek by now.
Too bad Ootje Oxenaar isn't among us anymore. We (the Dutch) had really nice notes before the Euro.
Looked up a link for anyone interested: https://www.pcgs.com/news/ootje-oxenaar-the-art-and-application-of-banknote-design
Impressive how well put these words are, though I'm afraid they're spoken to deaf ears (is that a saying in English too?).
Reacting to the EU’s decision not to suspend the EU-Israel Association Agreement, Agnès Callamard Amnesty International’s Secretary General said:
“The EU’s refusal to suspend its agreement with Israel is a cruel and unlawful betrayal – of the European project and vision, predicated on upholding international law and fighting authoritarian practices, of the European Union’s own rules and of the human rights of Palestinians.
“European leaders had the opportunity to take a principled stand against Israel’s crimes, but instead gave it a greenlight to continue its genocide in Gaza, its unlawful occupation of the whole Occupied Palestinian Territory (OPT), and its system of apartheid against Palestinians.
“The EU’s own review has clearly found that Israel is violating its human rights obligations under the terms of the Association Agreement. Yet, instead of taking measures to stop it and prevent their own complicity, member states chose to maintain a preferential trade deal over respecting their international obligations and saving Palestinian lives.
“This is more than political cowardice. Every time the EU fails to act, the risk of complicity in Israel’s actions grows. This sends an extremely dangerous message to perpetrators of atrocity crimes that they will not only go unpunished but be rewarded.
“Victims are entitled to far more than empty words. Member states must now take matters into their own hands and unilaterally suspend all forms of cooperation with Israel that may contribute to its grave violations of international law, including a comprehensive embargo on the export of arms and surveillance equipment and related technology, and a total ban on trade with and investment in Israel’s illegal settlements in the OPT.”

With the sighting of a Eurasian otter, Tangkulap Forest Reserve becomes the only place in Malaysia where all four East Asian otter species coexist. The three others are the smooth-coated (Lutrogale perspicillata) and Asian small-clawed otter (Aonyx cinereus), both listed as vulnerable, and the endangered hairy-nosed otter (Lutra sumatrana).

As apex predators in rivers and waterways, otters are indicators of ecosystem health and are very sensitive to changes in their environment.

If you're gonna continue promote this unpopular opinion, you could add 'and if you're not: prepare to lose your son/brother/father/male of fighting age friend. And either way: prepare for a loss in income and availability of food and other essential goods'. Best of luck.
