Putin has decided that Russia is going to be a 'safe haven' for people who want to trade liberal Western ways for Russian 'moral values'

  • 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.

Putin would probably turn them right around and drop them in the middle of the Ukrainian frontlines while laughing.

mindlight ,

The people of Bucha got a taste of the “Russian spiritual and moral values” and we will not forget!

If Russian moral values didn’t include brutal militaristic expansionism, this might be not a bad idea.

Please give them free plane tickets, then when they get off the plane just do the beginning of Enemy at the Gates

Please give them free plane tickets

Great idea.

Announcement: I pledge to buy a one way plane ticket from any US airport to Moscow for the first two US citizens that can prove to me that they A) have a social media history demonstrating rejection of Western liberal ideals, and B) have had their Russian immigration visa accepted.

If they return to the US at any point in my lifetime, the offer is rescinded and they must refund me the cost of the ticket.

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”

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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

Snowden never wanted to be in Russia. He was trapped there inadvertently by diplomats.

In Russia, military joins YOU.

Rakonat ,

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.

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!

I don’t expect people who take him up on that will enjoy it if coming from America. Just a guess.

I know a lot of people who should go! They won’t of course, but it would be great if they did.

Morals? RUSSIA??? HAHAHAHA HAAAA NYET!

Thank you Putin for taking out the garbage! Trump too if you please!
