Yeah let’s join Putin because homosexuality is the greatest threat to this world.

I’m so sick of wack jobs who project their fantasies onto the wonderful Putin and Russia.

Do you like that Russia pushes abortion? As well as war and dictatorship.

Stalin wouldn’t have shed a tear if Hitler wiped it off the map. He was very suspicious of people from Leningrad. He had Kirov bumped off, out of fear he would use Leningrad as a base to rival Stalin.

He had most of the “Heroes of Leningrad” killed after the war, because of the fact they pretty much operated outside of Stalin’s authority during the Seige.

Yeah the USSR sure preserved the history of the czar, Stalin’s purges, mass starvation, gulags and slaughters throughout Europe.

Not.

The Russian Putinistas renamed Liberty Plaza as Lenin Plaza in the temporarily occupied Ukraine. They fly hammer and sickle flags over Ukrainian mill towns. The Reds are still red on retaining absolute power and control even if they give less lip service to socialist economics. They now have a cult of personality surrounding their 24-year dictator and KGB alumnus.

Seriously? Ok.

When I read that this morning. The first thing I thought was if this is not already in Breaking News on FR than it needs to be.

How is this not significant and Breaking news ?

There’s whitewashing history and there’s reviving history.

Any Christian following the great commission of Jesus would have been overjoyed at the fall of the Soviet Union and the opportunity to join together with Russia as allies in Christendom. And Putin has been a leader openly promoting Christianity.

But instead, the neoCONs saw too much money and power to be made by continuing the strife and turning Russia into a perpetual boogeyman. And Ukraine was a perfect place to launder money and commit all sorts of nefarious, illegal activity. These neoCON deep state scum are liars and deceivers and their reward is only in this world that they have used for personal gain at the expense of millions of souls that could have been saved if not for their evil machinations.

Saw this on Twitter:

At a ceremony today presided over by Gazprom Neft in St. Petersburg, near the Lakhta Center, Putin watched from a yacht in the Gulf of Finland as they raised the Russian tricolor... the Russian imperial flag, and
... the Soviet flag.

They pushed it here.

Communist agitprop.

Communism and homosexuality went hand in hand. Go hand in hand.

So which is it? Do they want to bring back the Soviet Union, or The Russian Empire?

“ I thought the USSR was dissolved. I am confused.”

Putin is trying to rebuild it.
