"You celebrate Christmas today, and at the same time in thousands of towns and villages people are celebrating the same holiday. This Christmas holiday, which should be a holiday of joy, but today, as never before, becomes a moment of remembrance of that great man who, more than a thousand years ago, with his holy and pure idea, entered his time, filled with filth and moral decay. We must remember that he who then, whip in hand, drove the merchants and moneylenders out of the temple, fell victim to the same dark power of gold, that viper-serpent offspring, which today again enslaves the German people and the peoples of the whole earth, poisoning them with moral decay and bringing, above all, our people closer to complete collapse. His work and his aspiration - peace for people on earth - have remained unfinished to this day, and from this remembrance we must recognize the necessity of the struggle to achieve true peace, for the sake of which every great man died as a martyr of his idea on the cross."

You may recall that, back when Facebook started changing WhatsApp’s terms of service, a number of news outlets reported on, and even recommended, switching to Telegram. Pavel Durov even said that users should delete WhatsApp “unless you are cool with all of your photos and messages becoming public one day.” But Telegram can’t be described as a more-secure version of WhatsApp. Soloviev also promoted the channel in a post he shared on his own Telegram, which has 580,000 followers. The post recommended his viewers subscribe to "War on Fakes" in a time of fake news. The channel appears to be part of the broader information war that has developed following Russia's invasion of Ukraine. The Kremlin has paid Russian TikTok influencers to push propaganda, according to a Vice News investigation, while ProPublica found that fake Russian fact check videos had been viewed over a million times on Telegram. "The argument from Telegram is, 'You should trust us because we tell you that we're trustworthy,'" Maréchal said. "It's really in the eye of the beholder whether that's something you want to buy into." The next bit isn’t clear, but Durov reportedly claimed that his resignation, dated March 21st, was an April Fools’ prank. TechCrunch implies that it was a matter of principle, but it’s hard to be clear on the wheres, whos and whys. Similarly, on April 17th, the Moscow Times quoted Durov as saying that he quit the company after being pressured to reveal account details about Ukrainians protesting the then-president Viktor Yanukovych.
