Regarding Russian gay soldiers
| They see their "dedovshchina" system, outright servitude and systematic penalism and slavery in the military as purely natural and part of Russia. Because it has always been so. To change that would be a mistake against the Motherland... a betrayal of Russian values, in short:

| Memories from my Chechen trips often return as I watch the evidence of Russian war crimes in Ukraine emerge: mass graves, summary executions, torture, and sexual violence.
The roots of Russian military brutality run deep. During World War II, the Red Army earned a reputation for its harsh treatment of both enemies and civilians. As Soviet soldiers advanced through Eastern Europe, they left a trail of destruction, including widespread rape and looting.
| Nor is brutality in the Russian military confined to the battlefield. It is also deeply ingrained in its internal culture, particularly through the practice of dedovshchina — the institutionalized hazing and bullying of young recruits.
| It worsened considerably after military reforms in 1967, which allowed men with criminal records to join the army to bolster its numbers. The criminals brought their prison behavior and even their lingo with them. Whereas, until then, beatings and hazing had been widespread, the criminals introduced other predatory practices such as pimping out conscripts to local farmers and workshops and then stealing their salaries.

If you want, you can dig further into how harassed, how abused and how low in hierarchy the Russian military are. Of course the lowest position ever is taken by conscripts. There are many publications on how conscripts were forced into gay prostitution to earn cash for higher ups.
| tl;dr
russian culture is deeply homosexual. Perhaps the most homosexual culture in the world.
| What is it with russian culture that makes these orc animals behave this way?
The U.N. has documented more than 1,000 cases of sexual violence in Russia's war against Ukraine. It attributes 89% to Russia, and most of the victims are men. Also consider that these are only documented cases. How many (thousands) have not been documented, or the victims have just been murdered?

OP never said that being gay is bad. Being in denial about it though, that's bad. Especially if you're openly homophobic while being super gay yourself.
| I think conflating Russians with the Russian military is a bit of a problem OP. I’m ok with calling active Russian soldiers animals, but the orc stuff is really gross. The Russian military is indeed disgusting and the world would be better with it eradicated, though there are of course some salvageable people trapped in it who I wish could escape. That other gurl is also correct that the problem is the violence and exploitation, not the sex with men, and it’s not good to bring up.
| I don’t actually think you’re acting in bad faith here, it’s just a common liberal talking point which is gross and you’re better than. notice you didn’t contribute to Ukrainian defense in my last thread about that. Would you like to put your money where your mouth is? I’ll match your donation.

No one said that here except OP...
| OP on her usual delusional trip.
| Why are Russians always trying to derail discussions and/or project logical fallacies onto people that they never said? Why is it impossible to have a grown up conversation with Russians on these kind of sites? It's so weird.
