Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

Wow that sounds terrible... Especially with encouraging employers to increase birth rates, a lot of sexual assault/harassment is going to be swept under the rug.

Yeah, that seems to be the point. He's again appealing to his macho fascist supporters by further enabling abusive behaviour. Domestic violence has been decriminalized for years already in Russia, violence against outgroups is allowed/encouraged, they have a national snitch on your neighbour system, ... It's become a true fascist society.

I miss the innocence of my younger self when I thought the ending of the Russian World War Z POV was a bit phobic and not prescient.

It's Russia, after all. Their entire history has been often summarised as “... and then things got worse”.

Yo, you think Republicans aren't listening and taking notes? In fact they WOULD encourage sexual assaults. at work and everywhere else - gotta produce babies. It's how they roll.

Also they think it's their only hope of sex, because nobody willingly chooses them.
