So, it’s March 8th, International Women’s Day. Russian immigrants give their moms’ a call. Most former Soviet Socialist Republics celebrate similarly. Others, around the world, protest glaring inequalities and abuse.
It’s only appropriate that in the neu-repressive Russia, dozens of protestors were plucked from several demonstrations around the city and arrested for “administrative misdemeanours for breaking the one-person protest law,” non-pre-approved banner slogans and other nonsense.
Meanwhile, Russian Orthodox protestors and religious hate groups swarmed medievally around the protesting women, throwing rotten eggs at them.
Pussy Riot supporters were also arrested for being Pussy Riot supporters, or rather for something something, sorry, I’m not in the mood to fish out any particular pivot of bureaucratic bullshit.
