BTW, (former) members of Pussy Riot do important journalistic work in/for Russia these days. They co-founded zona.media. See this story I saw about half a year ago: https://en.zona.media/article/2025/04/18/kozyreva

How long until they offer a reduced sentence in exchange for popping out some future cannon fodder for the motherland? Gotta replace the ones on permanent Special Fertilizer Operation duty in Ukrainian fields.

Sorry, I'm from the US. Is rape not common in Russian gulags?

Seems like that would be an inevitable side effect of bring in prison

Can't say from personal experience but I'm guessing that it's typically not attached to a credible offer of early release.

Yuck. I agree, but yuck.

Unclear why that article ended with a couple paragraphs about Putin's bodyguards collecting his feces

Yeah I found that a strange tangent too, was interesting and entertaining though so I'm not exactly complaining

Is busting it down sexual style really such an abhorrent thing to the point to waste police time with it.

Jokes aside this is a human rights violation straight up as silly as that sounds opn first glance what these women did isn't against the law in most sane countries
