What are your thoughts on a Russian poetry prize banning entries from transgender people? Why is Russia so transphobic?

Russia seems hell-bent on re-inventing itself as a mustache-twirling cartoon villain on the world stage, in every possible dimension: economically, politically, militarily, socially. Their overarching aim seems to be, “Is it pointlessly malevolent? Yeah yeah yeah, let’s do that!”

At least the Tories aren’t openly fellating Putin the way the Republicans are.

And for whatever reason, today’s Republican and Tory parties seem to be all about “ooh, that Putin is so dreamy, we sure do like that, let’s do the same thing!”

Why do I have the impression that almost all questions about advertising the flat Earth theory come from people who don't believe in a flat Earth themselves and are just provoking?
