Donbas, Kosovo, Scotland, Catalonia, Silesia (Poland) – should the principles of autonomy be equal?

Do you believe that the population of eastern Ukraine of Russian descent, Russian-speaking, and with pro-Russian sympathies should have the right to autonomy or self-determination, similar to the case of Kosovo?

If Kosovo could—why not Donbas? The question of whether regions with distinct ethnic and linguistic identities have the right to self-determination remains controversial, especially regarding eastern Ukraine. Advocates cite precedents: Scotland, Catalonia, Kurdistan. Opponents warn against legitimizing separatist movements backed by foreign powers. Is autonomy a universal principle—or a political tool used selectively? And are national borders truly fixed, or just lines until someone redraws them by force? Decide where your own boundary of acceptance lies.

Moon landing

Do you believe that humanity actually landed on the Moon more than half a century ago?

The 1969 Moon landing was hailed as humanity’s greatest scientific triumph. But was it real? Despite thousands of photos, videos, and testimonies, millions still question it—citing supposed inconsistencies, odd shadows, and the “too perfect” story sold during the Cold War propaganda race. Did Armstrong really step onto the Moon—or did the world buy into a Hollywood-style illusion? And if we were lied to then—how many other truths are up for debate? Answer—before the truth gets lost in the fog of theory.

Jewish communities and U.S. politics

Do you believe that Jewish groups have a significant influence on U.S. government policy?

The question of Jewish influence on U.S. politics is one of the most sensitive and controversial in public discourse. Some see powerful lobbying groups, like AIPAC, as proof of strong policy influence—especially in matters related to Israel. Others argue that such views risk sliding into conspiracy thinking and unfair generalizations that echo historical prejudice. Where’s the line between legitimate political advocacy and disproportionate sway? Is this about facts, perceptions, or deeper societal anxieties? Share your view—carefully, or candidly.

COVID-19: Health Crisis or Fear Narrative?

Do you believe the threat posed by the COVID-19 pandemic was deliberately exaggerated by the media or politicians?

COVID-19 changed the world—but was everything we were told really true? For some, it was the greatest health crisis of the 21st century; for others, a fear-driven narrative pushed by media, governments, and pharmaceutical corporations. Lockdowns, masks, vaccine passports—were they necessary, or tools of social control? And the vaccines? Touted as the way out of the pandemic, they’re now increasingly linked to adverse effects, excess mortality, and a lack of accountability from manufacturers. Was it really about health—or about power and profit? Answer—before history writes its own version of events.

The presidency of Donald Trump

Are you satisfied with Donald Trump's presidency?

Few presidencies have divided America like Donald Trump’s. For supporters, he was a disruptor who revitalized the economy, stood firm on borders, and challenged the political establishment. For critics, he deepened polarization, undermined democratic norms, and led through chaos rather than strategy. From tax cuts to trade wars, tweets to court battles—his legacy is anything but neutral. Was it bold leadership or reckless populism? Visionary reform or dangerous precedent? Share your honest take—because history is still writing its verdict.
