No wonder so many liberals root for Ukraine, out of hatred for Russia.
Castration and forced sterilization that is irreversible is horrific. Why the Left in the Western World is pushing this on our children is appalling
Russia chooses sanity & life.
America now confuses children & permanently sexually mutilates them.
This is the third decade of the 21st century. That’s where we are, not in the 1970s or 1980s.
Probably doesn't happen in North Korea, Iran, etc. either.
They have a very high abortion rate and only recently started policies to discourage this because their population is stagnating - not out of respect for life.
They have also banned evangelism, openly glorify prostitution, etc.
Putin’s spot on on the whole woke crap.. gave a great speech on it.

Russia is more righteous than the US on every issue right now.
The US is horrific place morally right now.
Yet they are the lowest tier on human trafficking 6th worst, and they won’t cooperate on reducing it.
