Code name and reader's message
I am a lesbian from a Russian city N (I'll call it that, because such a name would suit almost any city). My city is very small, but it's near the border, every day I feel the presence of war, but it's not customary to talk about it in society, although it's obvious: everyone is tired of it. At the same time, despite the external threat to security, there is also a threat within. You cannot be sure that your acquaintance with a queer person will not turn out to be a setup. You cannot be sure that a conversation with an acquaintance about the authorities will not eventually turn into compromising material against you. You cannot be sure that another refusal to download Max won't raise questions. But you can be absolutely sure that an attempt to financially support "undesirable" and "extremist" organizations like Meduza will lead you to a prison term; this is exactly what makes Russians not try to do it, and I am one of them. I hope someone will respond to my message and donate on my behalf.
