I know I shouldn't but...
Considering that you cannot access Twitter nor Facebook, as we have started quoting or print screening tweets for your and @inCloud's benefit, you must surely be aware that this is a policy of censorship specifically tailored to ensure that criticism of the Russian Federation and support of Ukraine cannot easily be expressed. If you can't see that, you are deliberately living in ignorance.
I'm surprised people let this one slide. I've bolded the two phrases for clarity. Yes, there is plenty of opposition to Russia's invasion of Ukraine on the internet as a whole but the user to whom you replied specifically speculated that the discussion we are having right now on this forum, with outstanding criticism of the Russian Federation, could not happen and is not happening on Russian websites, not just the internet in general. You brushed the two together and it comes across as a textual sleight of hand.

Yep we all share a common ground of useless and corrupt politicians in varying degrees,
and ones we don't agree with.
The difference lies in if you have a feeling you can change that via voting and also if you can express your criticism vocally without fear.
All media has it's biases, but at least we have several we can chose from plus all the internet media.
Russia just isn't like that, from what i can see at least.

for context, Černochová is Minister of Defence of the Czech Republic and that translation should be "hush, hush, Putin!"
sigh, man these insinuations... would be healthy if all mainstream parties adopted some rational thinking about immigration... suddenly one of main talking points of far-right would be irrelevant.

I agree with you.
My point was that within the group of people who oppose unregulated immigration, is racists and xenophobes.
That is a fact.
That is the problem because sometimes they happen to be the most vocal / ones the media seeks out to interview.
Problem with both the left and right is that there are idiots on both extremes, and its those idiots the media loves to give air time to.

In the latter, you claim to not be against legal immigration provided there is no increase in population density. Only...unless there is an equal and opposite reduction in existing population, immigration necessarily increases population density.* Imposing such a limitation means you oppose immigration, legal or otherwise, which was pointed out to you at the time.
This thinking is irrational.
*A birth rate that exceeds the death rate also necessarily increases population density.

Good point: the situation in the RF is not the exactly the same as in the US. Russia seems to have a particularly toxic mix of authoritarianism, crony capitalism, nationalism & religion, but it is also very reminiscent of what has happened in the US under Trump. The narrative blaming immigrants & foreigners for wider problems was the trademark of Trump's appeal to his supporters. It's a theme that appears repeatedly in history when authoritarian, nationalist leaders seek to deflect attention from other problems.

McCarthy says Biden should have aided Ukraine sooner, despite condoning Trump withholding aid to the country in 2019
Despite supporting Trump withholding aid, Kevin McCarthy said Russia "probably" wouldn't have invaded Ukraine if Biden had acted sooner to arm Kyiv.

Day 54 of Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine and they have "started" attacking weapons factories in Donbas.
Right... so the Russian war pigs have spent almost two months assaulting, raping and murdering civilians, bombing hospitals and shelters, and cutting off power, water and food to hundreds of thousands of innocent people, but only now are they focusing on weapons factories?
Says it all really. 🤬 pigs.
