Please take them. Please, please, please take them all.
What they don't know is that they'll immediately be sent to Ukraine. One-way ticket probably.
Sunflowers are much prettier and far more useful than whatever crap Jones and his cronies spew.
But who's gonna sell me silver???
He makes most of his money shilling his pills, I think the gold sellers just pay him for air time
Don't start splitting inconsequential hairs with me, buddy! Episode 765 of Knowledge Fight reviews Tim Fruge's deposition in which he discusses the silver coins they had stored in the wearhouse (if I remember correctly. It's been over a year since I heard this episode). Just because he makes most of his money from pills doesn't mean he can't also have silver coins.
Oh no, absolutely they shouldn’t go! That would be so terrible for all of us progressives. Once they leave and take all their useful skills with them we absolutely will fail as a country and will cry tears of shame that we ever questioned them. That would show us so hard. We would be so owned!
My bet is that more likely some of them will suddenly be caught with drugs, accused of spying and other made up crimes and sentences to 15 years in prison.
Then they will get exchanged with the US for war criminals.
Anyone who moves there for "sanctuary" should automatically be left out of prisoner exchanges. Though I suspect they're more useful as propaganda tools to talk about how much better Russia is than the US.
My guess is they'll get sent off to war & then killed by American weapons. How ironic!
What other use would Putin have for them?
More specifically, Kursk
A lot of the far-right chuds that would take Putin up on this offer are well above combat age. Now, using these people to make up the labor shortfall caused by the Ukraine war? I can absolutely see that one.
Either that, or he'd just pamper them in exchange for utilizing them as propaganda mouthpieces for his regime.
The russians are sending undesirables to die, regardless of age. They have been luring people from abroad for some time now. Promises of jobs and on arrival you get put on a truck to Ukraine.
Meanwhile, in hell, Satan has cured Ronald Reagan of his dementia so he can watch his party gargle Putins balls.
This sentence...its awesumm
Growing up (I was a kid during Reagan's Presidency), I heard more than one conservative pundit saying "better dead than Red!" I guess Russia is technically not the USSR; but, it strikes me as funny to see conservative pundits now seemingly open to becoming Russian.
"This new decree blows the lid off the establishment's agenda, letting freedom-loving folks bypass the usual bureaucratic nonsense like language tests or history exams," Jones
Alex Jones, pro-immigration and a strong advocate of removing any process to naturalize citizens in a new country.
😄🤣
Is there a GoFuckThem that I can contribute to?
Apparently Republicans are tired of democracy and almost every single traditional American value. Like supporting the middle class and human rights.
Russia will probably be perfect for them, until they figure out their dream is actually a nightmare.
I am also intrigued by Putin’s plan to take all our country’s conservatives.
Fucking do it. We should be publicly funding this shit. You don't want to be here and another country will take you? Awesome, we'll help get you there.
Oh man I would feel so owned if conservatives moved to Russia. Oh no, please don’t. Please.
As long as it’s a one way ticket. No coming back!
They can go then.
And if they try to come back here later we can tell them our borders are closed!
Or throw Alex Jones into a deep, dark hole for skipping out on paying the sandy hook families what he owes them.
O please go.
... setting aside a requirement for knowing the Russian language, history and basic laws, and Jones urged his followers to consider sanctuary there.
Makes sense. After all you won't need to know any of that stuff out on the front lines in Ukraine.
Please, move there! Enjoy it and take your Republican friends. I hear Winter there is amazing and Tucker says they have tremendous grocery stores 😂
You're incentivized to bring the cart back!
I'm for all weird right-wingers moving to Russia.
Once they get their Russian citizenship any of the Americans that do this should remember to find a US embassy/consulate and renounce their citizenship so they don't get taxed by Uncle Sam.
Wasn't there an ad a few months back, put out by the Russians, claiming the same thing - a sanctuary for westerners who want to keep traditional values? I remember it because it had some supposedly well-known Russian porn actress in it, acting as a pure smiling maiden or something like that...
Are you thinking of the Bill O’Reilly infomercial?
I really don't know, it's just something that I scrolled past on social media, perhaps it was just a joke/troll post. I'm kind of sorry I even brought it up here.
EDIT: I think I'm remembering this https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/russian-conservative-village/, and the porn actress thing must have been some joke someone on the internet came up with to mock it.
Welcome Comrade! Advance behind this man. When he is shot, pick up his rifle and continue!
Was about to comment, you remember that Canadian YouTuber that moved his family to Russia, couldn't get a permanent visa because they don't know Russian, and presumably moved back?
We got a few crazy people in other countries as well, come on Putin. You can take’em all.
Don't let the door hit you on the way out!
I hear Grigory Potemkin already has a village built for them in the Crimea.
They want a criminally immune haven for their hate speech, of course they are.
That's integrity for ya
