- Putin has signed a decree that Russia will welcome foreigners who want to escape Western liberal ideals.
- Applicants may include those from countries unaligned with “Russian spiritual and moral values.”
- The application process has been simplified, and visas will be issued as soon as next month.
Oh please let this happen, the alt right fleeing to Russia thinking they’ll have better lives only to get shoved into a shitty overcrowded apartment or forced to work on a farm with 19th century farming technology would be the funniest fucking thing.
None of this will happen. They will be sent directly to the front ending up as fertiliser for Ukrainian ground like the rest of the Russian military.
Gogogogo. Let’s fund their plane tickets with taxes! Make this as easy as possible.
Conservatives: “Those damn liberal communists.”
Russia: “Hey American Communists that value our ways but aren’t actually communists because we aren’t communists. Bring your pro communist values to our pro communist values in our non communist country.”
Conservatives: “yeah, we will let the communists of America lead America in to communism. While we go to an actual communist country.”
I genuinely don’t know how some of the people on the right have functioning fucking brains.
Russia isn’t communist any more. It’s a Kleptocracy.

You can have 'em!
The reality is Putin is attempting two genocides, one in Ukraine and one in Russia. He has purged undesireables from liberals and independent media to the LGBTQ+ community, ethnic minorities, political opposition, boisterous oligarchs, prisoners, and so forth… He and his Rasputin, Aleksandr Dugin, believe they can create a stronger Russia by making it a more pure one. But good luck with that lol.
Putin be like, “Watch me speed-run becoming North Korea, stuck in the past and global pariah.”
They made the same offer to men from Nepal…many relocated to Russia
So far 10 are dead and hundreds missing
The great thing for Russia is that they know their target demographic will never see that news!
So hundreds are dead
You never know, some may have safely defected to Ukraine.
This would be the most circuitous immigration route they could take to get to Europe… go to russia, head to front lines (and survive), surrender, become a POW, claim refugee status (and avoid being deported), land in a western country and start from scratch.
Sounds like a modern Don Quixote (though I imagine in their minds it’s more like The Odyssey).
I was thinking just because they realized if they didn’t defect, they’d be killed, not to get to Europe.
In Russia, military joins YOU.
Putin would probably turn them right around and drop them in the middle of the Ukrainian frontlines while laughing.
Sounds like Russia is running low on cannon fodder
If they’re going to treat anyone nicely it’ll be the first wave of people to sign up for this amazing plan, so as to encourage others to follow. Go sign up right now, haters of Western Liberal Ideals!
Ooh yeah send all of em over to Russia to align with their spiritual and moral values. Especially the ones who “I would’ve been locked out of the Marines during boot because I’d have punched the drill sergeant” types and see what happens when they get conscripted.
Hopefully the first plane is full of those fucktards who love wearing those American flags shirts that read “if this flag offends you, I’ll help you pack”
Thank you Putin for taking out the garbage! Trump too if you please!
That would be a sideways move.
Changing from one oligarchy to another oligarchy.
Well, if you become a whistleblower or if you are a journalist that the west wants to arrest, or get rid of, that might be your best bet.
Edward Snowden is alive and kicking.
Snowden never wanted to be in Russia. He was trapped there inadvertently by diplomats.
I dunno, seems like there’s a significantly higher chance of falling from a window and dying in Russia
As an American, I know about our regime-change wars and about our military leaks, including some of our real civilian causalities in our forever wars.
Not to mention our civil rights activists keep dying, as well as other information about the three letter agencies.
I try to avoid races to the bottom, especially when comparing citizen deaths in the US and Russia.
It will not make any nation more popular.
As an American
[X] Doubt
No Doubt is a great band.
As an American
I add that due to encounters with non-Americans.
We are strangers on the internet; feel free to think what you will, I will not try to force it on you, hahaha.
this is just rebranding oligarchy in a way thats palatable to religious whackjobs, like US conservatives.
rebranding oligarchy
How? The billionaires and corporations own the most important resources while having great influence over our elections and politicians.
We are only a republic or a “democracy” in our dreams, but in reality, we are also already a fascist country with our police state.
Not to mention the Patriot Act and the many more policies that follow.
The USA PATRIOT Act was a landmark Act of the United States Congress, signed into law by President George W. Bush.
nothing youve said here negates my point. these kinds of messages arent meant for people paying attention.
im not disagreeing with you. rebranding is all about optics, and attempting to change peoples view of something… often a terrible thing.
Interesting! Thanks for expanding on your thoughts a bit!
Edward Snowden is alive and kicking.
Alexei Navalny isn’t. I wonder what the difference could be?
I wonder what the difference could be?
Actually, it’s pretty simple. Edward Snowden exposed government surveillance and ran away, seeking asylum to protect himself after revealing what he believed was in the public’s interest. Navalny, on the other hand, wasn’t motivated by public interest—he actively betrayed his country, aligning with foreign interests and openly opposing the government. Unlike Snowden, who wisely fled, Navalny stayed behind like an imbecile. And guess what happens to traitors in Russia? It’s not like in the US, where all that matters is money, fast food, and the latest social media trends—Russia doesn’t mess around when it comes to nationalism.
Chelsea Manning isn’t even in prison anymore.

That’s a different issue. The point was if she had done it in Russia, not only would she not have been allowed to transition, she’d be dead.

That is why Chelsea Manning was brought up. Because if she had done what she did in Russia, she would have been murdered by the state for doing it.
Ask the Freestra family, who left Canada to escape its wokism, how’s the move working out? https://nemoskva.net/en/2024/02/09/eto-bylo-ochen-glupo-seme-kanadczev-pereehavshih-v-nizhegorodskuyu-oblast-zablokirovali-scheta/
