Russian Parliment passes law making it illegal to speak out against the invasion of Ukraine…up to 15 years in prison

[ColonelAngus]

This is a good thing. One must censor anyone who disagrees with them. Its the Soviet way. It is the left wing way. Misinformation must not be allowed. The government must protect its citizens from misinformation and illegal protests.

People are not smart enough to discern truth from propaganda. The government must tell us what the truth is.

New laws are part of Russia’s ruthless effort to suppress all dissent and make sure the population does not have access to any information that contradicts the Kremlin’s narrative about the invasion of Ukraine.

Worked for Covid too.

Riiiight lefties?

 

[ColonelAngus]

The Russian people need to be protected from the propaganda the rest of the world is spreading.

Solid move by Pooty….just like Biden telling Facebook who to ban. Putin just went a step further.

Lefties love this move by Putin. They are authoritarians. They are elite and know whats best for the worker bees in flyover states.

Leftists think milk comes from the grocery store.

 

[ColonelAngus]

This really isnt enough. Capital punishment for speaking out is the only way.

Slippery slopes are the BEST! The left loves them.

Dont think it will happen? Lets wait and see…

The “real” left fights reactionary Putin’s aggressive war in Ukraine and his war against free speech in Russia too. It also recognizes geopolitical reality, and opposes adventurist U.S. foreign policy abroad.

The “antiwar” movement in Russia and Europe is made up of diverse forces, including large liberal and left components. The largest antiwar movement in Europe opposes Putin’s bloody war and also opposes NATO expansion.



“Over 4,600 people in cities across Russia were detained at protests on Sunday against Moscow's military operation in Ukraine, a monitor said, on the 11th day of the invasion.

“A police spokeswoman said 1,700 people were detained in Moscow after around 2,500 took part in an "unsanctioned protest,” while 750 were detained at a smaller rally of around 1,500 people in the second largest city of St. Petersburg, Russian news agencies reported…”

It is good to see you come out and be proud of how you are. Not many people would openly admit this is a good thing.

progress.

I despise your stupid ignorance of history, your rooting for the Confederacy and its racial slave system, your Neanderthal use of a photo of John Wilkes Booth — assassin of Abraham Lincoln — as your avatar.

Your stupid off-topic trolling comment — and everything about you — is consciously in opposition to all that is decent in our great country and its history.

If Russian citizens stormed the legislative chambers as a protest, against this vote, does that make them unpatriotic ........ seditious?

So you are upset because i dont suck up to tyrannical assholes? Lolz
I dont/didnt root for the confederacy. But thats ok. I catch that from all of you low IQ rubes who cant handle me being in opposition of tyranny. "oh well, he didnt like abraham shitting on everyones rights so he must have supported the confederacy and slavery DERP"
Decentsy in our great country is the rights we have and the supposed lack of central authority. That was the whole goddamn point of America. You authoritarian shit stains forgot that. You probably forgot that because you are always sucking up to china and dont have time to remember anything else.
If you ever want to discuss this, without your ignorant cliches, and you taking the time to THINK, holler at me
Fuckin RUBE

Absolutely it does. They would all be seditious traitors and should be dealt with as such. Held without bail indefinitely.

Its the proper thing to do.

 

[miketx]

Makes no sense. Why do those commies need a law when they can just do it?

 

[ColonelAngus]

The Russian Parliment should 25th ammendment Putin.

 

[bendog]

Trumpspeak

 

[ColonelAngus]

Its interesting how similar the authoritarian left in the USA and Putin have so much in common.

Their beliefs and morality and principles are very similar.

It looks like the left in the USA really loves Putin.

Hillary and Obama made no secret of it.

 

[Lisa558]

Lots of sarcasm on this thread but honestly…the best chance to get Putin to retreat is for the Russian people to revolt and put him in prison.

He knows that, which is why he is threatening his own people to STFU, or else.
