They are literally undermining human rights, including the rights of LGBTQ people. You do know that Russia is one of the harshest places for LGBTQ people. It’s literally illegal to display pride symbols in any way. Also Russia started the war in Ukraine, they literally attacked and decided to occupy a sovern country. China is probably one of the most censorship heavy countries on earth and has suppressed acts of violence like the Tienanmen Square Massacre. How can anyone support countries like this WTF?

    And there we go with the Tinyman square BS, grasping at straws from half a century ago, which is not even what they make it out to be.

      You know nothing about Ukraine. Me, my parents and most of my relatives are russian speaking, and we never had any problems. And still, a lot of Ukrainian soldiers speak russian, even those who usually speak Ukrainian.

        One of the many many discriminatory laws put in place against the Russian minority is that they can’t even use it for anything official.
        Not in school, official documents or whatever.
        And you want to claim ‘they had no problem’ while being attacked by nazi azov scum for 8 years?
        LOL

          Azov are ultra-nationalists? Russian speaking guys from Berdiansk? LOL.

          As of official language, it was a roll back from the law passed by pro-russian politicians, and it was the right move. We were overwhelmed by russian influence, and language was used to pull us into the russian world.

            Azov, like Tornado, Sich and plenty more are a bunch of nazi scum. IDC what some Banderite says.
            Really not interested in your nazi appologist BS.
            Glad you’re losing the war and got what you deserved for being US/UK proxies.
            So suck on that

              Well, I hope russian soldiers will show you their “love”. That’s all they can do and when they return home, they’ll do it again and again.

                  But you’re talking like a typical russian or their bot. They like to talk bullshit about nazis. Or you’re brainwashed by their propaganda. That’s really possible because their propaganda works perfectly on far right, nazis, far left and anti-western. But here’s the thing: you don’t want to mess with them. 30 years ago, we watched russian TV (because it was better), listened to russian music (because that’s what was playing everywhere), laughed at their jokes about stupid Americans, and mentally we were at russia’s side regarding almost every political point. We were against NATO, we considered the West as an enemy. We thought our nationalists were crazy freaks. Then we learned the hard way they were right. Our “enemies” helped us, and our “friends” wanted to kill us.

                    LOL look how great this ‘helping out’ is working out.
                    And calling them nazis when ex-ukraine has Banderite marches, honors WW2 criminals, openly fascist batallions, etc is just projection.
                    I guess it’s them who should’ve known better and not mess with them then.
                    Attacking the east and wanting the NATO imperialist in.
