Russian Politics Thread: Добро пожаловать!

Putin oppresses the LGBTQIA+ persons, like Hitler oppressed the Jews in the 1930s.

Really? So there are LGBTQIA+ concentration camps? Where at? Is the Russian police going into private homes and telling the LGBTQIA+ community to lower their pants so that they can decide if the penis gay or straight?

It is literally illegal in Russia to tell a gay person who is considering to commit suicide that homosexuality is better than suicide.

I said 1930s. The Nazis didn't begin putting them in camps until the very early 1940s. However with the intense hatred Putin is stoking in Russia, it might only be a matter of time until the perceived 'liberal western perverted enemies of Mother Russia' suffer more extreme oppression.

So did Valentinian III, probably. Vague connections does not a complicated ideology make, Ardoki. Remember, political repression is a proven and reliable political tool since the existence of the state.

But in the modern era, we are not suppose to be acting as such.

muh modernism
muh universal western values
muh hooman rights

What if I told you these were all spooks?

(no, I'm not a Stirnerite, but I like calling things spooks)

[Allanea]

Ethnic cleansing? In the Donbass?

So tell me, Shofercia, when the Ukrainians recaptured Mariupol and Slaviansk, why didn't they "ethnically cleanse" the population there? Where are the mounds of the the dead?

[Ardoki]

But in the modern era, we are not suppose to be acting as such.

So where's the LGBTQIA+ version of Kristalnacht?

There are various videos on youtube of LGBTQIA+ being harassed by Russian neo-nazis, many of which are tortured and possibly then killed. While the Russian authorities don't do anything to stop it, they even encourage it.

Why are you using a racial slur against black people?

That's a single judge handing out an idiotic fine. The article says that she's appealing it, and that she was found not guilty in the previous trial. Климова намерена обжаловать приговор в ближайшие дни... Однако Дзержинский суд Нижнего Тагила в феврале 2014 года Климову оправдал

Different context of the word. I'm referring to Stirner's special snowflake ideology.

Actually, UMN, he's wrong. He said 1930s. That includes 1938 and 1939. So Ardoki's wrong once again, big surprise.

They didn't start exterminating people until 1942. So I was correct.

Plus neo-nazis in Russia are killing the LGBTQIA+ people for Putin. Just like nazis killed many people for Hitler.

[Geilinor]

Alright, as someone who's no fan of Putin, he is not a neo-Nazi.

Putin oppresses the LGBTQIA+ persons, like Hitler oppressed the Jews in the 1930s.

Putin isn't massacring millions of people.

I don't buy that defence. Anyway, you should know the definitions and connotations of a word before you decide to use it.

They didn't start the genocide until 1942. However they were harassed in the 1930s.

[Roski]

Russia is figting America, so all freedom loving people should support it.

I'm extremely confused about this statement. Should they support russia against the leader of the free world?

Yes, but Children 404 was - to my knowledge - either totally shut down or came close to being shut down as a result.

Anyway, gay propaganda laws are dumb, and oppressive, I'm sorry to say.

Then you are being silly, since the context of a racial slur would make zero sense in the way I used it.

Just fucking read the sentence and replace the words with a slur and "ideological constructs with no objective meaning", and decide which one makes more sense.

Spook has multiple names. When the fuck were black people called spooks?

I know coon and nigger, but not spooks. SJWism is going a bit too far here.

Nothing, technically, has "objective meaning". So what?

If you believe American and its president Obama are the leader of the free world, than not. So, whatever weaks America it should be good.

You are very sadly mistaken.

Just because you want to co-opt ethnic slurs and use them in everyday language to normalise them, does not make them acceptable.

Please don't use such offensive language. You could offend people, such as myself.

His argument that _____ makes one a Neo-Nazi is that one does it in the modern world. This is silly because most ideologies predate the contemporary world. Thus, saying that one must hold their ideology to the ideological standard of the modern world is really silly and, frankly, kind of Eurocentric and, funnily enough, is pretty much exactly the kind of idea that 19th Century Europeans used to justify the conquest of Africa. Wonder how Ardoki will react to being lumped together with racists and imperialists.

I legitimately do not give a flying fuck if you're offended by my language.
