Same with geopolitics now, since the USA have basically sided with Russia against Ukraine. I want to have a solid background to be able to interpret current events and tendencies.

I am not freilanzer, who made the comment https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43410830 to which you responded, so, if you do think an apology is warranted, then it should probably be to them.
