    For further context, opposing the war can and does lead to 10-15 years imprisonment in Russia, and Russian prisons are even worse than ones in the US.

          Not if you’re simply parroting western propaganda, which you are! Russia isn’t some backward country. Like most western countries, they have various types of prisons or gulags. Gulag is just Russian for prison! Some are horrible, just like supermax is in the US.
