Hey we live in strange times. How bout you join me? Russia is looking to attract conservative expats from Canada and America wishing to flee from their oppressive governments. Timur Beslangurov, a lawyer for the St. Petersburg International Legal Forum (SPBILF), believes 200 families will “want to emigrate for ideological reasons.” Furthermore, this representative said that they “very strongly believe in the prophecy that Russia will remain the only Christian country in the world.” “The reason is propaganda of radical values: Today they have 70 genders, and who knows what will come next,” RIA Novosti quoted Beslangurov as saying. The Wall Street Journal published an opinion piece last July entitled, “Wokeness Is Putin’s Weapon.” They’re right as the West is currently engaging in a cultural war that is deteriorating our society from within. Our leaders speak more about transexuals, LGBT, equality, and abortion than they do about the real issues. They put people who fit this far-left genderless persona in positions of power to push the agenda rather than looking for the most qualified candidates. Parents are worried about sending their children to public schools where they are taught sexual identity and CRT rather than literacy and math (look at test scores in comparison to other nations). Christian and/or religious nuclear families are seen as extremists and that lifestyle is openly discouraged. The woke agenda has even infiltrated the military, where they’re forcing soldiers to undergo training so as not to offend people with the wrong pronoun and making a drag queen the face of the US Navy. Russia’s plan to attract expats will not go over as well as they hope. I do not anyone who would want to retire in freezing Moscow amid a coming world war. Conservatives and liberals alike fear communism (the older ones at least) and will be afraid that the Iron Curtain could drop once more. There’s also a good chance that CA and the USA will treat people who choose to move there like those who moved to the Middle East to support ISIS—it’s a one-way ticket. Still, it is alarming that this could even be proposed all due to the ideologies of a few permeating our way of life.

Germany surrendered to Putin

Russia still capable of waging protracted war, no cracks visible in Putin’s system – German intel 2023/05/23 - 14:46 • LATEST NEWS UKRAINE German intelligence chief Bruno Kahl doesn’t see a threat to Putin’s system yet. He says that public criticism of how Russia is waging war in Ukraine represents routine disagreements among Russians but in no way a threat to the system, DW reports. The power of Russian President Vladimir Putin is currently quite stable, according to Bruno Kahl, head of the German Federal Intelligence Service (BND). “We do not see any cracks in Putin’s system,” he said, speaking at the Federal Academy for Security Policy on 22 May. According to Kahl, public criticism of warfare methods represents common disagreements in Russia but in no way a threat to the system. “Despite occasional expressions of criticism, for example regarding munitions supplies, there is no indication that the system is beginning to falter or collapse,” he stressed, adding that such a scenario cannot, however, be ruled out either. “In the long run, Russia is still capable of waging war – with new and new conscripts,” Kahl said, adding that the same applies to weapons and ammunition. “So there can be no talk of weakness or that Russia’s actions may come to an end,” Bruno Kahl emphasized. “Indeed, there are vulnerabilities and surprises – for example, in terms of military efficiency. But unless the West is very organized in supporting Ukraine and organizing resistance, Putin’s strategy of betting on the long term and the masses (of soldiers being sent to the front. – Ed.) may succeed.” https://euromaidanpress.com/2023/05/23/russia-still-capable-of-waging-protracted-war-no-cracks-visible-in-putins-system-german-intel/
