    There are a few lunkheads who are like taking Dostoevsky off the syllabus. That's bad and should be pushed against. But I really doubt that the cultural heritage of Russia will be junked by the world anytime soon despite Putin's crimes.https://twitter.com/roddreher/status/1500435549869740036 …

    I watched Tarkovsky's "Nostalghia" for the 4th or 5th time in two years last night, and found more things in it that I had never seen before. That man was one of the greatest artists of our time. It pains me that we live in an era where he would be dunned because he was Russian. pic.twitter.com/DGmQ3lAGoN

        Crime and punishment seems so appropriate right now.

        Ok but I will say there is no way in hell that guy watched Nostalghia 4-5 times in two years unless he’s got some kind of weird rare fetish

        Buddy, you would not believe the rare and weird fetishes that that guy has.

        As a matter of fact I just ordered the Briggs translation of War and Peace. Yes Tolstoy I know.

        The moral logic of sanctions/boycotts is consequentialist, but the moral impetus - the feeling behind it - is attuned to a purity/impurity sense of contagion. Obviously that leads to problems.

        At the same time, is it not appropriate that some of us find consumption of Russian media distasteful right now?

        Did American symphonies and operas ignore Bach, Beethoven and Brahms during the first two World Wars? I could understand them putting Wagner on the shelf for a while, but for my money, The Three Bs are at a different level.

        I mean, it’s not like this is the first time a Russian leader has committed atrocities. Somehow the Nutcracker has endured.

        Maybe he’ll get Orban to sponsor TarkovskyKon 2022. Stalker cosplay.

        Rod has posted 2x as much anti- trans stuff the past two weeks as Ukrainian stuff. And he completely supports Patriarch Krili’s “we must go to war to stop pride parades”message
