Putin Signs Gender Reassignment Ban Into Law - The Moscow Times
I'm reminded of one of my old memes when I see people in power pull shit like this.
People can't revolt if you force them to have to fight for their right to even exist first.
Or maybe fascists are just transphobic bigots who want to torture and kill trans people because, well, they're fascists, it's what they do?
You need to understand the far right doesn't give a damn about economic issues. Not one crap. (Because most far-right supporters are middle-class or higher, for the record!) They want power for one reason, and one reason only: to lord it over the minorities they consider their inferiors, if not outright killing them.
This isn't a "distraction", it's the fucking goal.
Why not both? Far right movements, at least as far back as the transition of the Tories into the conservative party in the early 1800s, have been lead by the interests of the ultra rich. Far right "philosophy" has always been to their service, whether its regressive "economics" of Malthus or the complete fiction of scientific racism. Almost definitionally, there isn't a far right movement without a ruling class that it supports and is supported by; that's what they are trying to "conserve".
Part of this is having a permanent underclass. Or more than one. Just as the "middle class" is under the ruling class, the under class must be beneath them. This is part of the conservative mindset, which again is created and nurtured by the ruling class for this purpose. The difference between garden variety conservatives and fascists, in this regard, is simply that fascists want the elimination of the permanent underclass.
As if that is the biggest problem with Russia right now
LGBT laws and talks are pulled out by the right/far-right when there are shitstorms incoming. It’s literally a giant “Press in case of emergency” button, alongside immigration, etc
No one said it's the biggest issue, no one said there aren't other, bigger issues.
It is not an issue at all, except to bigots. And to bigots it is the biggest issue, until they are attracted to another non-existant issue by the social media propaganda accounts which they follow.
Great now maybe some Americans will migrate there
Yes, please!
We're not sending our best
If only.

Cis people: doing whatever they want including things that could be considered inmoral
Government: that's completely normal
Trans people: exist
Government: wait that's illegal
Russian army: Bombs and kidnaps children
Government: Special military exercise, totally justified.
Trans people: Exist
Government: How horrible! Won't anyone think of the children?
I’m pretty sure they don’t care about children
As if Putin didn't already give us enough reasons to hate him.
He really is determined to follow in all of Hitler's footsteps, huh. Well, hopefully he'll follow Hitler right to the same ending.
That would be meta considering the Russians were the ones who got to hitler, shortly after he killed himself.
Is this a way to curry favour with the GOP and getting them to agitate for fewer/no supplies to Ukraine?
good point
Pure speculation: could this have been motivated, to any extent, by some desire to maintain a predictable portion of the population conscriptable, given that only men are conscripted?
The war isn't going quite in the way Putin would have hoped, after all.
It's a drop in the bucket in that sense, but, what's a target of this law, yet another win over 'deranged west' and it's agenda.
Most of the time people with gender dysphoria don't even know what's that, can hardly find a community, realize they are not cis, start a course of costy tabs, believe they can aquire a legal status from that state – all that with still being there, working, meeting people. It was a surprise to many this loophole existed. And it's still required a doc confirming you have a mental illness.
Cis men won't even try that for our right-wing politics and propaganda, they would rather break a leg than that, or just wait it out.
And no, there are a lot of people still availiable for service. Minority of transwomen wouldn't do any weather. But I'm fucking crumble inside imagining any of them being mobilized into a typical men environment. It's a death sentence.
Well that's bullshit.
Also anyone anti-woke is by definition must fall into a category of pro slavery, pro women not being able to vote, anti civil rights, pro totalitarianism.. and the list would go on. Anti-woke would mean asleep and letting the world piss all over you and you never even noticing.
But sure though, hold onto your "programed" terms like woke and ride them into your ignorant rabbit hole.

That's the weirdest and stupidest assumption I have ever read. I am actually pro women and i am defending their rights. People that believe that men can be women and thus allows them in female competitions and then this "women" set new records impossibles to achieve by a real women. You and most people like you don't even know how much is that offensive towards women. I will not answer on the other points since your assumption is just so ridiculous but then I am the one "programmed" to think that but surely you are not programmed to make that assumption as soon as you see the slightest thing against LGBT, LMAO.

Funny thing is that from my point of view you like most people that think like you are "asleep and letting the world piss all over you and you never even noticing"
Imagine siding with a war criminal hell bent on destroying not only his neighbor’s house but his own house too.
Don’t be a fucking idiot, nothing is being pushed on kids other than acceptance and tolerance of others. Which ironically, for the most part they already understand. They’re brainwashed to hate, just like you were.
Go back to whatever hole you crawled out of.
“the west” you ever hear of Thai ladyboys you fucking dunce
