Yes, if you were a Russian citizen you would need to keep your head down, and not complain about the government, unless you wanted to dare the big hand of the security services to descend and grab you.
But...
Unless I am seriously misinformed, Putin's regime is not going to put you in prison for refusing to pretend that a man in lipstick and a dress is a woman.
It is however going to do that if you refuse to pretend several other things. Like that a war isn't a war, Russia is winning the war, and don't even think about pulling... "election misinformation" stuff there.
They are not going to import a mob of jungle savages, give them open permission to murder, loot, rape and rampage, and then prosecute any man who dares to defend himself or his family as a racist hate criminal.
True, they prefer steppe and mountain savages.

161,170. That's how many passports Russian authorities issued to foreigners between January and March this year. It's more than twice the number that the country issued during the same period in 2019.

That one i think is a huge ironic blind spot for Putin's western simps, in migration policy he's much closer to center-right establishment parties of US and EU than to them.
The Russians will not declare you a racist bigot for not wanting anyone to be allowed to gang-rape your wife.
They will do it just for being a westerner though, fuck, Putin will personally declare you a part of neocolonialist racist group.
According to Putin, the impression is that the West simply cannot offer the world a model of the future

They will not treat anyone who believes in the Christian God as a second-class citizen on that account.

When that man in the cartoon says "I hope they kill you" he does not mean "their society is wonderful and I would love to live there".
But they aren't killing the prog-left scum of the West.
They are killing Ukrainians. Who in terms of their customs, culture and politics are much closer to nearby countries than to Portland antifa scene.
In fact the supposed globohomo big bad puppet has
banned the communist party, and i think i remember some of these supposed right wing clowns complaining about it.

Putin is not an enemy of the American people, Biden is.
thus i invoke the idea that the enemy of my enemy is a useful bludgeon we can use to beat the dems into the ground.
He is an enemy of America's foreign policy interests, and classically defined ones, not "muh LGBT rights in Uganda" kind of stuff. Which makes the situation a lot more complicated (except for isolationist idiots who are going to proudly ignore all complexities involved), as any damage to such complexities and its consequences, however much or little it rubs off on Biden (probably not much), will remain for decades to come, no matter who will be in office then.
Are they saying in a roundabout way that they are doomers who are willing to bet it's not gonna be anyone they like, and secondary question, how far will they go to ensure that they don't turn out to be wrong if they are willing to sabotage the aforementioned?
