Pretty gross. Comments every bit as awful as you’re thinking. Just a reminder of the abysmal state of non-cishet rights and acceptance in Russia.
Edit: can’t get my screenshot to load properly so text:
T1: Putin on accusations against Russia in the energy crisis: “European countries are big specialists in non-traditional relationships and themselves abandoned traditional energy sources in favor of non-traditional ones”
T2: (“non-traditional relationships” is the legal term in Russia for all things “LGBT”)
:yikes-1: :yikes-2: :yikes-3:
if putin wants to help us that’s great, we’ll take it, but if he ever comes around asking for anything, fuck him, he’s got feet and he can kick rocks.
Not the opinion of Xi, Maduro, Kim, Diaz-Canal or any other socialist leader
I mean if you’re in a global south country that the US doesn’t like or care about, you’re kind of forced to work with Russia and Putin, as much as it sucks. See Venezuela, Cuba, etc. China is non interventionist so it’s not an option.
Sometimes the outcomes are good, sometimes they are shit.
I’m sure that Vlad is devastated that he cant rely on the proven track record of the Western Left.
