A court in the central Russian city of Nizhny Novgorod has jailed a woman for wearing rainbow earrings, the human rights group Egida reported late Wednesday, marking the second case of its kind after Russia banned the so-called “LGBT movement” as an “extremist” organization in November. According to Egida, law enforcement agents tasked with combating “extremism” detained the woman after a group of “aggressive people” approached her and her friend at a local cafe and filmed them on camera.
Yea “they’re pointing out a bad thing we do to make us look bad” is pretty fucking weak

Lmao people talking about lack of nuance and everything either being good or bad but yea saying that it’s bad Russia jails lgbtq people obviously means everybody is saying they hope imperialism happens to them, even though all those comments are literally explicitly saying that’s not what they’re saying.
This is indistinguishable from when liberals say we should throw minorities under the bus by not being so concerned about racism or transphobia to appeal to the mythical moderate conservative.
Sure let’s just throw out the entire context with how the phrase Critical Support is actually used and how everyone has behaved since February 2022
This really confirms my theory that nobody on this site knows what critical support means.
Critical support means you support somebody while also CRITICIZING the bad things they do.
Critical support doesn’t mean you support everything somebody does even if some of the things are bad.

Then enlighten us. Maybe you could try telling us all what it means instead of just telling anybody who says it’s bad to jail people to fuck off and die.

Another highly compelling argument that doesn’t at all confirm my suspicion.
Between this and telling everybody to fuck off and die I can’t see how anybody would possibly have any disagreements with you.
Thanks for giving us all a masterclass in what being very not mad looks like.

Lmao oh OK when you put it that way I see your point, it is good that Russia throws gay people in jail.
Wow it’s way easier to win arguments when you just make up other people positions.
