Yes, Russians can still go to prison for publicly criticizing Putin on video or social media.
Laws against "discrediting the armed forces" and spreading "false information" about the military (Articles 280.3 and 207.3) have led to hundreds of prosecutions since 2022, with sentences often ranging from years to over a decade. Visible public statements carry real risk, even if some dissent slips through. Repression continued into 2025-2026 per monitoring groups.
@NeuterTheDebt@JohnCleese How could the GOP not produce a better candidate? As it stands today either Biden or Kamala, who were indeed bad, would not managed to have the whole world turn against the US. From the few adversaries to 96%!
@askaya And threatened neutral Sweden where Russians time after time are caught at military bases, military R&D contractors etc! You’re probably a Kremlin paid bot. If not, stop being stupid. Russian dictators are the enemy of the whole world.
@NeuterTheDebt@JohnCleese Surely the more fundamental question is why Americans elected an unfit president? They knew very well what kind of an immoral, pussy grabbing kind of a grifter he was.
@nicksortor Yes Nick. Please. Isolate the US from the rest of the world. The other 96%. If you don’t understand percent that’s ok. Your president doesn’t either.
@Doitagain2024@mitchellvii Well, he is the one f-ing the US up. The divide has never been greater. It’s sad. The problem is that you are too dumb to see it. For all I know you’re a bot paid by Kremlin. And in such case the problem is that some (too many) Americans still support Trump, Vance et al.
@tripleGGGx@minefredvoncryp@OJoelsen@ga_richardson Some countries fucked up in Europe with energy. Many hoped Russia was moving towards democracy and west. The US has no one to rely on. 96% (the rest of the world) hates them.
@EricLDaugh@explorer_czw Eric is a paid MAGAt. Ergo he lies & knows nothing. MAGAts don't know how anything works.
The US has become an international embarrassment. My message to the ROW:
