on a related note, does anything think that when russia was "cracking" down on gay people.. it was meant to "unify" the country, to basically check how much fervor there is within russian society? that would be a good way of preparing for war, as the nazis did it. just find someone to hate/point your finger to, and then everybody who is not part of that group will become untied in disenfranchising those people.
Ummno.
1, they didn't "crack" down on gay people. They banned HBTQ propaganda for minors.
2, they are not preparing their citizens for war. They don't have to, Russian people are far more educated about the world then westerners.
3, USA/EU and YOU are preparing for war by demonizing russians as homphobic, anti-democratic etc.
maybe you can explain this to me then http://www.advocate.com/world/2014/05/01/russias-gay-propaganda-law-takes-effect-crimea
that and how people in russia are being incited to physically assault gay people marching in public.
How did gas and oil turn into gay argument?
well, it's kinda pertinent in that it's about russian society.
Oh, c'mon, we see this gay-people-cracking-down stuff again and again... 
Nobody cracking down on them, it's a total BS. Nobody cares about gays here, some pop stars and politicials are open homosexuals, they're still alive and active.
This "gay people prosecutions" bullshit is not even funny anymore. It's so far from the reality that I'm unable to imagine how anybody can believe that. This would be like a belief into spaghetti monster or martian invasion, the same level of stupidity.
Sexual orientation is nobody's business, it's a private matter. If some person thinks too much about someone's orientation, then he needs to visit a doctor, without any delay. This is the most popular point of view on this issue.

you're from russia? russians generally, and i'm not implying that everyone is (but it's a trend), harbor a lot of hatred.. it's the nihilistic russian way. how can you explain these russian anti-gay laws? why do you think it's happening now (recently) all of a sudden? sometimes, in order to catalyze people, you need to find a central figure for them to hate on. here is an excerpt from the article linked above
It has also triggered a spike in homophobic violence, the subject of worldwide protests today in support of Russia's LGBT community, and a Dispatches documentary on Channel 4.
Are you mentally handicapped or are you actually being paid by US State Department?

Russians don't need to find unity threw hatred against minorities. They are United. Putin today has more backing than ever. Obama, and the west, however.. ehe. THEY are the ones who are putting Russians as the Central figure for hatred. They are building Public opinion against Russia. Theese are all very easy-to spot facts. Westerners are told to hate Russia, Iran and now even China and most likely you're all beginning to be fed With the facts of how horrible Saudi Arabia really is(They have apparently, as it seems now, chosen to no longer suck the ass of US).
nice rebuttal. using no logic, you just straight out call me "mentally handicapped." let me reciprocate: what are you, a kremlin? also, it's "than" and not "then." before you insult someone, make sure you don't appear ignorant.. mmkay?
read the article. putin's approval rating shot up, and it improved russia's morale. if you want to make a major move, you know, like take over crimea.. then you're going to want to boost morale up as much possible.
No, I didn't straight out call you mentally handicapped. There was a choice in there, you chose the first path. Funny, I thought someone working at the state department knew it's spelled "than" and not "then" when using the word like I did. Guess I was wrong THEN
Yes, right. They "cracked" down on homosexuals so that they could invade their own military base. Spot on, you got it bro!
In the comments of that article I linked on RT about this deal there's a lady.. Jane is her name it seems. Obviously there's a handful of people commenting and discussing what it means that this new deal was finished. In comes Jane:

Did the men finally kill off all the human females? Looking at the footage of this 'historic' deal, I say it aught to burn in infamy for supporting such sexism. Not one female in a position of authority. Disgusting. So much for justice, for equality between the sexes. But, I guess you men need to hold onto power so you can keep the women subjugated: how else to act with impunity in bashing the women, and raping their children?
GOD is NOT on your side, honeybuns.
