Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Well, it's a good thing that the Bad Foreigners are to blame for the issue — otherwise the Kremlin might be forced to engage in critical thinking over the implications of their incessant agitprop for the stability in minority regions, and we can't have that.

Putin seeds instability and blames others for it.

Love how he just throws in Ukraine with every whiney ass statement he makes against the West. Such a fake, dysfunctional government. This is why Putin is begging North Korea and Iran for supplies, nobody with the slightest care for living in a peaceful and functional society would ever tolerate such a blatant abuse of power.

I hope these conflicts and backsliding throughout are only the death throws of a dying breed of dictator clowns that society will one day no longer be stupid enough to tolerate. I hope despite the constant onslaught that our youth who were born with the world's knowledge in their hands will not be so easily duped as past generations.

Pretty sure Borat might have something to say about this.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


The unrest followed several other anti-Israel incidents in North Caucasus sparked by Israel's war against Hamas militants in Gaza.

Sergei Melikov, the head of Dagestan, said the incident was a gross violation of the law, even as Dagestanis "empathize with the suffering of victims of the actions of unrighteous people and politicians, and pray for peace in Palestine".

In the past few days, a Jewish centre under construction in Nalchik, the capital of the nearby Russian republic of Kabardino-Balkaria, was set on fire, emergency officials said.

There were also reports on social media of small anti-Israeli gatherings over the weekend in Dagestan and across the North Caucasus in Russia's south.

Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskiy blamed the events on Russia's "widespread culture of hatred toward other nations, which is propagated by state television, pundits, and authorities".

Russia has tried to maintain contact with all sides in the Israel-Hamas conflict, but has angered Israeli authorities by inviting a Hamas delegation to Moscow.
