Yoghurt, old boy, can you stop posting stuff with paywalls and geographic blockers? I've done your job for you this time and here's an archive.ph mirror.
I wish people would install paywall bypass browser extensions and/or learn to use archive.today themselves, but I’m pretty sure it’s hopeless.
Already got that installed but it didn't bring up a clean version of this link or the Bild story about Putin that seems to have been deleted by Lemmy.
Some of us browse Lemmy on our iPads. Shocking, I know.
Give credit to those who do [journalism] for a living. ... We find it natural that we pay for a plumber or a mechanic, but demand our news for free. If we did not pay for plumbing or auto repair, we would not expect to drink water or drive cars. Why then should we form our political judgement on the basis of zero investment? We get what we pay for.
-Timothy Snyder, "On Tyranny"
