No one is cancelling Dostoevsky, neither Pushkin or Gogol. Where did you hear that? In fact his Crime and Punishment is still mandatory reading, a classic in our high schools. The same goes for Chaykovski, Rachmaninov composers. Ironically, none of the authors would have been able to create in today's Russia (the analysis of the Russian soul, the crticism of the regime, homosexuality, unability to travel to the west).

BUT there are some Russian performers currently in the west, still in Putin's club (and payroll) actively defending his war and politics. Those one should be expelled at least.
