Brainwashing people to stay in the military through gay influence(?) is an interesting tactic as opposed to just making people obedient in general, maybe being gay is part of the secret to superpowers idk.

After the gay frogs, we now have the gay super soldiers! When they spot the enemy, they'll break out in an flashy dance to distract them so it's easier to shoot them!

But does the byproduct of the brain washing syrup also turn the frogs gay?

Super soldiers are only possible with Meth and LSD.

You know, these nutjob kkkonsiracy theories sounds very similar to those spouted by American Republicans. Whatever could it mean? The world wonders.

They kinda think that the socially disadvantaged (as in "depressive district", or as in "gopnik") layer of the general Russian population pays attention to such statements and believes them, cause for that layer being gay is very bad, prison caste system and all that.

However, even that layer of the general population is 97% not that dumb. And those who are sufficiently dumb do not pay attention.

Shit. They figured it out. There goes decades of work.

The utter tone-deafness of these damned orcs.

Therefore Putin funds brainwashing to make straight Russian super-feeders.
