    I recently went to the Mariinsky theatre to listen to Gergiev conduct Shostakovich 4 and hear Lorenz play as well because he's the concertmaster of that orchestra and let me tell you his solo in Shostakovich 4 was soooo beautiful, truly an amazing musician, so expressive and colourful

      Not going to let this slide - have you considered that Russia’s invasion to annex a country with its own ethnic and national identity is the definition of imperialism? Probably not, with your thick skull. Somehow, you’ve managed to dream up the most utterly incorrect take of all time, which is that defending ukraine against imperialism is ‘supporting western imperialism’? Wow
