Help us ensure that’s just the beginning. — Meduza [1] [] Date: 2024-10-25 Anonymous Russia I wish for you all to keep working no matter what. Thanks for doing what you do! In a world of total propaganda, access to independent journalism is vital. And without you, breaking through this information bubble would be a lot harder. Hang in there, and we’ll do the same. Milena Moscow I wish you the resilience to overcome all the hardships of the times we’re in, endure it all, and witness Russia become a free, democratic country. I’m not confident that it’ll happen quickly, but hey, you guys are only 10 years old :) I have hope that you’ll be around to see better days and to write about them. Tatyana St. Peterburg Please don’t stop. Every day when I open Meduza, I not only read the news (and truthful, reliable news at that), but I also see that there are people using their talents to make the world better and more truthful, rather than selling their talents to anyone willing to pay. This helps me stay hopeful that the world isn’t as bad as it seems today. Polina Russia I’ve only been with you since 2022, but you help me to keep going and stay sane in this world. Keep living, keep writing, and keep finding joy no matter what! And we’ll continue sharing that joy with you. Sergey Volgograd Meduza provides reliable information, helps me understand the meaning of current events, reassures me that I’m not alone, and helps me not lose my faith in humanity and my belief that we’re in this together, moving in the right direction. Alexey Moscow Please just hold on and persevere through these terrible times. Thank you for all you do — it’s an invaluable contribution to the future we’re all striving for. Alexey From Russia, currently living in Los Angeles Another year has flown by, and you continue to remind us that the truth can be sharp and uncomfortable. May your tentacles reach even deeper into the dark thickets of political intrigue and social upheaval, delivering news that may not always be pleasant but that’s so necessary. I wish for you to remain a beacon shining into the darkest abyss, even when everyone else would rather turn a blind eye. And may every new day be a reminder: Meduza sees everything. Ivan Karelia Please hang in there, guys. With all your remaining strength — even when you feel like there’s none left. I know you can do it. I’ve been with you and I’ll stay with you. You guys are doing an amazing job — you’re an example and an inspiration to me. Svetlana From Moscow, currently living in the U.S. Congratulations! I read you and listen to you every day. You provide me with daily confirmation that there are many of us, and yes, you give me hope. But most importantly, you’re documenting history, making a record of every day of this rogue regime. Natalya Moscow Thank you guys! I read your work every morning and every evening. In addition to the news, it’s crucial to know that there are like-minded people in the world, that many see things the way I do, and that not everyone is claiming that black is white. And that there’s a place where I can find a clear reflection of what’s happening, insightful articles, updates on the world of culture, and even practical advice (like how to put together a first aid kit, etc.). Thank you so much! I wish you prosperity, each and every one of you. And please, keep doing what you’re doing! Galina St. Petersburg In the Tarkovsky film “The Sacrifice,” a young boy persistently waters a barren tree. And it flourishes. Maybe, one day, Russia will be free. It may take a tremendous amount of time. Thank you for giving us hope. Thank you for being there. Let’s fight against evil together.
