Crypto Voices: Episode 180Show Sponsors: Trezor - https://trezor.io/Debifi - https://debifi.com/Donations to Porkopolis Economics via BTCPay are appreciated: https://donations.porkopolis.io/Show support appreciated: donations.cryptovoices.comWhy do we so rarely hear directly from Ukrainians about their own war? In this episode, we sit down with Yuri, a Ukrainian expatriate, to explore how Western media often filters and reshapes Ukrainian perspectives—sometimes distorting critical nuances and emotional depth in the process.From the translation of Zelenskyy's statements to the broader narratives surrounding the war, Yuri sheds light on why authentic Ukrainian voices are missing and what gets lost when their perspectives are mediated through external interpretations.We also challenge common misconceptions about the Soviet Union’s collapse, examining Russia’s own role in the dissolution of the USSR—rather than the oft-cited influence of NATO. Drawing thought-provoking parallels between today's geopolitical tensions and pre-WWI Europe, this discussion raises urgent questions about European unity in the face of aggression.Biased media coverage, historical distortions, and the struggle for truth—this episode is a must-listen for anyone seeking a deeper, more unfiltered understanding of Ukraine's fight for sovereignty.Host: Matthew MezinskisMusic: New Friend Music newfriendmusic.com/Podcast & videosBitcoin, privacy, crypto, economics & libertyThanks for watching!
