Interesting you mention Russia. The leadership of Russia spends a lot of time thinking about how to denigrate LGBTQ+ folks. Racism is alive and thriving in Russia. They even recently went through the trouble of decriminalizing first time domestic violence. Could you elaborate on why you think a trip to Russia would be useful to [eta:American] progressives?
- Epa095 5y agoHe did not say progressives, he said " anyone who spends a lot of time thinking about this type of thing", which I interpreted as the conservatives which can't stop talking about this.
- tazjin 5y agoIn case it helps with interpreting my comment, I live in Moscow.
- foxpurple 5y agoWant it even worse than just first time? I seem to remember that Russia now allows one incident of serious domestic violence per year.
- tazjin 5y agoFake news, you're probably thinking about the law regulating punishment for first time offences not involving serious violence.
