        Sockpuppet account lmao? I just joined today. So, you’re telling me Putin is not a right-wing dictator? I guess I should visit Moscow as a trans gay person and publicly express my disdain against right-wingers trying to exterminate us in Russia. For sure it’s not a fascistic country and I won’t get thrown in prison for it. /s

        You have screws loose up there if you think Russia is not far-right.

          It’s a traditional conservative society and I wouldn’t call them neoconservative, just because they don’t accept gay/trans folks. Many other people and countries don’t either. In fact, the majority of the world doesn’t. Identity politics is going to doom us in the West.
