- 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.
Oh no! Putin please do not take homophobes away from my country, oh no…
I would be so mad if suddenly homophobes went to Russia. They would really own me if they all decided to go to Putinland.
As a western liberal, I would feel so owned if conservatives started heading over to Russia en masse. Just the thought of not being able to convert their children into Satanic, transgender bisexuals and forcing abortions on them makes me want to puke. Please stay, stop, don’t go.
I get your point, but if anyone goes over there, they’re bringing their underage children, and those children will likely suffer. So, I’d rather them stay and be safe than be right and have them suffer. I don’t wish ill on those hateful people, for the most part, I wish them a clear view of the social, political, and economic landscapes.
Now, the people who intentionally hatemonger for profit, like Alex Jones, I would not be sad if they met an untimely fate.
Conservatives grew up loving western liberalism and were later told to hate it. Kids brought over there will flip flop and rebel just like their parents did.
This is also just an attempt to shore up demographics after losing THOUSANDS of men against Ukraine, and a good chunk of Russian nationals simply fleeing the country to avoid conscription. So you don’t get a nice apartment in Moscow or St Petersburg, you get a little hovel out in Siberia and all the farmland you could want.

Don’t threaten me with a good time.
You just have to spend some time on a gov. funded PR trip in the Donestk region.
Spoon in underwear at the airport, kids, if you think your parents might be trafficking you to another country and you don’t want to go.
Ok…I get the spoon would set off the scanner. I get you’d need a strip search…but I’m not getting how having a TSA agent finger your butthole to find a spoon would help.
Uh, that’s not exactly what happens when the metal detector goes off but it gives you an opportunity to talk with someone without your parents around. TSA isn’t police, but hopefully they can contact police.
That said, parents do get a pretty strong say in where they take their minor children.
Tsa don’t take minors into a private room away from their parents
When did I say anything about a private room? You get a few feet of separation from your parents and a different adult to talk to for a moment. That may be enough of an opportunity.
I’m reminded of Obama winning the 2012 election and a bunch of troll conservatives bombarding the “We The People” petition website with requests to secede from the country
Huh, is the meat grinder not getting enough?
Probably also a massive brain drain to boot.
Yeah, I don’t think this will help very much with that particular issue…
What are you on about? This migration will cause the IQ in Russia and the originating country to go up.
/s
I don’t know. Maybe they need more cryptocurrency experts and sovcit hedge-lawyers to help with getting around sanctions
Maybe they need more cryptocurrency experts and sovcit hedge-lawyers
They can have them.
Preferably before November.
I have bad news for them if they think accepting people running from “Western liberal ideals” is going to help with that somehow.
Probably. “Come to Russia! Is safe place! Is not place with liberals! What? No, we don’t need bodies for military! No conscription of foreigners here!”
Fast and easy to get citizenship!
Plus a little state sponsored travel, for a treat!
See the world* for free!
*Ukraine
Service guarantees citizenship!
Would you like to know more?
“If it works for Isis, surely this will work for me.”
Odd thing is, he might not be far off. He could try to sell some incels on hot single Russian women whose men have all died in 60 year old tanks. Also maybe some gravy seals might be willing to sign up. Maybe when Trump loses he’ll move there followed by some of his MAGA cult, and they’ll be this English speaking enclave in Russia somewhere. Could be the premise for a sci-fi tv show.
I mean, most of them want a strong man dictator type anyway!
I’ll buy them plane tickets if they need help getting the hell out of my country
On arrival, you will be provided with a military uniform with minimal bloodstains, a rifle from WW2 that may or may not work, and free transportation to the beautiful Russian countryside of Kursk.
Wouldn’t this be the equivalent to like…
They made the same offer to men from Nepal…many relocated to Russia
So far 10 are dead and hundreds missing
Great way to get new meat for the meat grinder.
Translation: For people who want to trade moral values for confidence game built upon trying to find the best excuses for greed and power without realizing that those you will be submitting yourself to will also be trying to do the same.
About to be a bunch of confused conservatives showing up in Kursk with a few bullets and no training?
Go Republicans. Go to the land of *true freedom!
^^^true ^^^freedom ^^^not ^^^guaranteed ^^^nether ^^^is ^^^food, ^^^goods, ^^^and ^^^conscription ^^^highly ^^^likely. ^^^Visas ^^^surrendered ^^^apon ^^^entry ^^^and ^^^use ^^^as ^^^a ^^^bargaining ^^^chip ^^^for ^^^Russian ^^^spies ^^^guaranteed.
Dang, that reads like a commercial for pharmaceuticals.
Ask your propagandist if Copium is for you…
ALL MAGA. TAKE THEM ALL. JUST A CONVEYOR BELT FEED SYSTEM ACROSS THE OCEAN.
I would donate a hundred bucks to a fund that offered free transport to any repugnicunt that couldn’t afford to go but wanted.
Bet the intelligence agencies will label anyone who takes up on Putin’s offer as a foreign agent when they return home.
Why would they take the offer then return home.
Russian internal politics is a heaven for MAGA types.
Wait until they find they don’t have 2nd amendment rights there
They don’t actually care. Trump banned bump-stocks and they didn’t care. As long as they feel like the leader is on their side, policy doesn’t matter.
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.
Edward Snowden is alive and kicking.
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.
