“Actually they were protesting the Russian Orthodox Church for going along quietly with Putin’s elimination of the free press and free speech.”

I did not recall that specifically from when I first heard about it, so I looked it up, and Wikipedia mentions nothing of free press and free speech.

Based on their acts, IMHO, they got just what they deserved.

>>>>1) You don’t have to be a communist to not like Putin. 2) You don’t have to be a communist to not like the behavior of the Orthodox Church. 3) If I root for a football player, does that make me a football player?<<<<

1) You might don’t like herpes but will you cut your genitals off if you have it?

2) I might don’t like my cat’s behavior sometimes. Do I need to choke and skin her?

3) Well, it was an exaggeration on my side, sorry. It only makes you a communist supporter. But does it make a difference?

Yes, she’s hot. About as hot as Hanoi Jane when she was that young, and for the same reason, I’d touch neither of the commie whores.

So, this Bolshevik group is back in the news again, eh? If not for the name of the group, their outrageous stunts, etc., no one would have ever heard about them.

All the best action movie prison dramas are set in Russian prisons, so they must really be bad.

Re post 39-——— I recall reading a real interesting account some years ago about how the women’s lib movement was secretly funded and assisted by the KGB. The intention ,of course, was to weaken family and societal ties in the West. They were quite successful. I think some of the records leaked out after the Soviet collapse.

In fact it has leaked as early as 1970s by Yuri Bezmenov but no one listened.
