Since 2014, Ukraine has been affected by a conflict that was triggered by the Russian aggression on Crimea and the subsequent separatist war in the Donbass region. The conflict has resulted in thousands of deaths and injuries, with millions of Ukrainians being displaced. In this difficult time, volunteers in Ukraine have played an important role in helping the Ukrainian army and civilian population.
Imagine a system in which a private company, as a government service provider, offers you the protection of life, liberty, and property. This service includes internal and external security, a legal and regulatory framework and independent dispute resolution. For these services, you pay a contractually fixed fee per year. The state service provider as operator of the community can not unilaterally change this "citizens contract" with you later. As a "contract citizen", you have a legal claim to compliance and a claim for damages in the event of failures.

A Freedom Today conversation with Fred Roeder of the CCC
Why did you decide to launch the Consumer Choice Center?
When we think about people in the public eye we should thank, we think of figures such as Mother Teresa (we'll let Christopher Hitchens spin in his grave at this mention) or Princess Diana, who virtuously stood out because of their charity work. However, it is demonstrably true that the people who create the technology that betters our lives need an even bigger sense of gratitude.
A shocking report exposes a vast network of NATO military and intelligence officers entangled in Russian active measures across Europe. From Norway to Germany, it reveals secretive connections to organizations pushing Moscow’s agenda in the West.
There are few things more unsettling than the impact of Russian propaganda on the world. These manipulative attempts to deceive and manipulate the public to achieve political goals pose a threat to democracies and our freedoms. Therefore, it is not only important to expose Russian propaganda, but it is our duty to do so and support other structures in doing so. The effects of propaganda on a society can be devastating. We have seen in the past how propaganda has been used to manipulate and mislead entire populations. We cannot allow this practice to continue today.
In Ukraine, women fight against a murderous system that comes from Russia. Against rape and deportation. In Iran, women are fighting against compulsory headscarves and access to the education system. In Sudan, women fight against female genital mutilation. The list goes on for a long time. The physical integrity of women is not guaranteed in many countries around the world. Women are not free. Courageous women fight against it. The visually stunning impressions of the resistance are female and that is important.
Freedom - a word with many meanings. For some, it's just a term, but for others, it's an indispensable value that determines their lives and actions. Freedom is at the core of the liberal context and is also crucial for Ukraine. Ukraine has faced many challenges in recent years and has sought to defend its freedom and sovereignty. It's a struggle that is often difficult and sometimes even painful, but it's also a necessary fight to secure the country's future.
No, when I talk about the local "conspiracy theorist", I am not talking about the pandemic, which seems to be thankfully over. Unfortunately, it`s about a topic that is still current: the invasion of the Russian terrorist state in Ukraine.
