"No matter how hard these mugs puff themselves up, is there any room for hope with them?" Roscosmos shared the playlist the ISS-74 crew will listen to before launch.

The corporation's employees had to edit the music selection after it was published. In addition to the "approved" songs by Alisa, Metallica, and Linkin Park, the polnalyubvi artists Pharrell Williams и David Bowie — the playlist included the song "Derzhava" by the Russian improviser Vasily K.

“And again about double standards,” the former deputy from Svetlana Kaverzina from Novosibirsk"This track is banned by Roskomnadzor. Well, that is to say, government cosmonauts can listen to it (the authorities thoughtfully downloaded it to a flash drive), but ordinary people can't. That's how we live."

The song "Power" was written by Vasily based on a verse by an emigrant poet Yuri Nesterenko "Nostalgic," written in 2008. "Note for idiots: this poem is anti-Soviet, not pro-Nazi," the poet himself wrote.

Less than 24 hours after publication, state media removed the screenshot showing "Derzhava" from their news feeds. However, it remained in reposts, including by Vasily K.

"There has never been extremism in space," "And there never will be. They've already deleted the song," "Perhaps they didn't delete it from the media the cosmonauts will be listening to, due to their stupidity." — Vasily K.'s listeners discuss this in the musician's comments.
