the US democracy which now has literally a one party rule
Yeah, one party. I mean, look at US presidents over the last 30 years...
Clinton (Dem)
Bush (Rep)
Obama (Dem)
Trump (
WTF Rep)
Biden (Dem)
I hate it when it's the same party that wins every time. Outrageous!
is it Tchaikovsky's fault that his works are removed from the repertoire of European orchestras?
Is this a widespread thing, or is it just that Cardiff orchestra? I know they decided to stop playing the 1812 Overture, but AFAIK that's more because it features Russians firing cannons, so might be considered to be in poor taste.
Absolutely. Just imagine if there are actually Ukrainian musicians there. No way they are going to celebrate anything that looks Russian nowadays and even in the future.
