What are you even on about? And airforce is much more powerful than you seem to think it is, and Russia’s number advantaged has been filed down quite a bit due to Putin’s nostalgia for the Soviet Union.

According to the Institute for the Study of War, there have been larger memorials and demonstrations in response to Navalny’s death in over 30 Russian cities. Russian police have made at least 350 arrests so far - 230 of them on the 17th alone.

STOP KOSA!
Another Reminder that KOSA is still bad.
Some points from the article:
“LGBTQ+ Youth will be at risk of having content, educational material, and their own online identities erased.”
“Young people searching for sexual health and reproductive rights information will find their search results stymied.”
“Teens and children in historically oppressed and marginalized groups will be unable to locate information about their history and shared experiences.”
“Activist youth on either side of the aisle, such as those fighting for changes to climate laws, gun laws, or religious rights, will be siloed, and unable to advocate and connect on platforms.”
“Young people seeking mental health help and information will be blocked from finding it, because even discussions of suicide, depression, anxiety, and eating disorders will be hidden from them.”
“Teens hoping to combat the problem of addiction—either their own, or that of their friends, families, and neighbors, will not have the resources they need to do so.”
“Any young person seeking truthful news or information that could be considered depressing will find it harder to educate themselves and engage in current events and honest discussion.”
“Adults in any of these groups who are unwilling to share their identities will find themselves shunted onto a second-class internet alongside the young people who have been denied access to this information.”

Ukrainian soldier finds evidence of war crimes on camera stolen by Russian invaders.
The camera contains photos of a family from a Ukrainian village that was occupied by Russians for a month, as well as photos of Russian soldiers themselves and evidence of their war crimes.
Unsure of the context of this particular event but fucked up if true.

Well, not really if your objective is to just infinitely spam bombs/missiles until everyone’s dead or all infrastructure is rubble.

Slow and takes time but doable if everyone that can assist the bombed country is stuck in a “we don’t want to escalate, and we don’t want to deliver more than a dripfeed of material support lest they successfuly counterattack”. The only reason Russia is loosing ~900 people a day is because they’re fucking imbeciles obsessed with colours on a map rather than their actual long term goals.

A new opponent of the LGBT law has appeared: this time the opponent was the festival of fans of the TV series My Little PonyThe FSB arrived at the event and dispersed the participants, accusing them of LGBT propagandaThe organizers took measures by repainting the Pony’s mane in a Russian tricolor instead of a rainbow, but it did not helpCan anyone in Moscow confirm?My man a propaganda film in a language your audience isn’t speaking will not help you.Wow just look at that freedom Russians have. I hope Atlas was there. I hope they weren’t checking ID’s, because there’s a good chance everyone there will suddenly find themselves conscripted, because lately breaking laws over there has been a good way to have that happen.
It’s on EqD now.
I looked a little and… in short, these are all greatly exaggerated rumors, as eyewitnesses say, several people from the police (2-3 people) came there, the reason was that there were no necessary documents, documents thanks to which it was possible to arrange some kind of That big event was the real reason.
and here’s a little more, but there’s not much interesting there (there are crazy people sitting there) https://vk.com/anti_furry

The event organizers say they did have the right documents, police were alerted that the event was “LGBT propaganda”, and after the second visit police “recommended” they shut down early. As they shut down people reported seeing police buses, though those were likely going around collecting people protesting Navalny’s assassination.

you are confusing the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the police, the Ministry of Internal Affairs does not deal with such trifles, they mainly deal with something like corruption, illegal migrants, sometimes together with the FSB they deal with terrorists or drug trafficking, and similar matters, this is a little not their area. Simply put, this is too small a case for them to pay attention to it; it would be a different matter if it were a large organization with some kind of financial structure and part of this money was directed to obvious LGBT propaganda - this would be of interest to the Ministry of Internal Affairs. But this is not the case, this is in the police department, at most the Ministry of Internal Affairs will simply ask the police for data on this case to see what all the fuss is about, whether it is worth their attention and that will all end there.
I certainly do not deny that there are some rare cases when the Ministry of Internal Affairs is actually involved in such cases, and it is more likely that everything is much more complicated and we will not be able to know the whole picture.

I believe much more about Navalny.

Of course, not everything is there, but I didn’t find anything there about the dispersal of the pony convention, which makes the news even more doubtful and I increasingly believe that the presence of the FSB there is just rumors.

the police became very interested in this festival. First, their employees came, then the Ministry of Internal Affairs
-and even the FSB, it seems.

I have a little stupid idea. In general: in Russia, some people do not see the difference between the FSB of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the police, for them it is the same thing, if this is so, then everything becomes clear.

World economies are failing, countries are at war, climate change might just be unfixable at this point.
Yet we have to keep going back to sexual minorities like holy shit. It’s almost as if people are easily manipulated by deep insecurities related to their biological drives. As if it’s easy to use things that don’t matter to gain support when you can’t do anything about anything that actually matters.

So you don’t actually know you just establish this as a “fact” for self-validation. Classy.

EDIT Asked the guy, says “The Interior Ministry was at the entrance, talking to the organizer. No one saw the FSB, apparently there were none. Only the police came up to the hall”

Okay sorry but who was Navalny? I only just heard of the guy yesterday when Russia offed him.
