well these women and their families haven't been disappeared, as they would have in any muslim country, so that's nice

indeed the tyrannical yoke under which the people of the muslim world and the people of the ussr lived are more similar than not, ie reactionary anti-capitalist state formations

i don't really think i'd define the 'muslim world' as primarily 'anti-capitalist'

ya true, i edited in (or neocolonial) but you quoted it beforehand



oh my b homey, i get what you mean

Former Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev told the BBC's Russian Service on Thursday that the case should never have gone to trial, labelling it "a completely pointless undertaking."

An opinion poll of Russians released by the independent Levada research group on Friday showed only six per cent had sympathy with the women. Fifty-one per cent said they found nothing good about them or felt irritation or hostility. The rest were unable to say or were indifferent.

The band members are educated, middle-class Russians who say their protest was intended to highlight close ties between the Russian Orthodox Church and Putin, not to offend believers.

Pussy Riot and its comrades at Voina come as a full package: You can’t have the fun, pro-democracy, anti-Putin feminism without the incendiary anarchism, extreme sexual provocations, deliberate obscenity and hard-left politics.

from their closing statement:

After all, we still have a secular state, and any intersection of the religious and political spheres should be dealt with severely by our vigilant and critically minded society. Right? Here, apparently, the authorities took advantage of a certain deficit of the Orthodox aesthetic in Soviet times, when the Orthodox religion had an aura of lost history, of something that had been crushed and damaged by the Soviet totalitarian regime, and was thus an opposition culture. The authorities decided to appropriate this historical effect of loss and present a new political project to restore Russia’s lost spiritual values, a project that has little to do with a genuine concern for the preservation of Russian Orthodoxy’s history and culture.

The son of Pink Floyd guitarist Dave Gilmour was jailed yesterday after showing the ‘ultimate disrespect’ to Britain’s war dead by swinging from the Cenotaph during the student riots.

Charlie Gilmour, 21, reeled in shock as he was handed a 16-month sentence for his ‘outrageous and deeply offensive behaviour’ during a drug-fuelled rampage that also saw him attack Prince Charles’s car.

I imagine him swinging around it like he's playing tetherball with himself. I think a trip like that would be worth a year and a half bid. in british prisons where the food is probably actually better than what you can get on the outside.
