Probably both are true....

Russia probably pressurizes gas reservoirs by injecting water into them like everyone else does (or they may have limited ability to stop aquifer/surface water from flowing into the reservoir). So, the gas extraction sites may not be able to stop producing without risking damage to the infrastructure.

So, Russia would have pushed the gas down the distribution line on the possibility that they would be able to export it. And once their storage capacity was filled, they lined up 5 pipe stacks near the Finnish border to burn off the excess, with the middle pipe stack burning the brightest.

I really hope that photo where Mr. Pirate is "hiding" in the bushes is taken just moments before he planted the car bomb.

It's probably after. He's clearly armed with a rifle, just in case the car bomb doesn't work.

With all the industrial properties severely devalued by the war, now is the time to buy oligarchs' enterprises and transform them to workers' cooperatives.

I've been thinking that postwar Ukraine is the greatest platform for a new kind of democracy that the world has not yet seen, and I want to work to make that happen.

Gotta watch out for those deadly pirate bush snipers.

Maybe they would be interested in a Direct Democracy. It requires most of the population to have regular internet access.
It's an idea that has interested me, and I imagine I may live long enough to see a Country implement it.
