Awesome. I hope they don’t end up shot attempting to escape.
"I sometimes wish it was 1937?"
A no-witnesses Trump summit with that guy’s boss is certain to go well, isn’t it?
I love Pussy Riot with all my heart! They have such guts!
Agreed.
Chiselin’ Trump: “If that happened in the United States, I would have instructed our police to grab those Pussies!”
Excellent! Nicely Done ladies!
I had a feeling it was something like that, and though I didn’t guess Pussy Riot I probably should have.
On the US broadcast the protesters were only on screen for a second or so and there was no hint of the high five with Mbappé. I got even more respect for that guy now, beyond his obvious skills as a player.
“I sometimes wish it was 1937,” the man off screen says, referring to the year in which Stalinist purges were at their height.
So does Trump, my friend, so does Trump. So when Hitler invaded his neighbors, he could say, “What…America’s so innocent?”
Tens of thousands protest in London and elsewhere, the paraglider Greenpeace protestor in Scotland, and now this. The world will not let the fascists win easily. Gives me hope.
I know - me too. I love all the Resistance dearly and ti does my heart good to see people saying no to
Fascism.
It punctures their ego just a little bit. But a little goes a long way with authoritarianists and wannabe dictators like these two thugs.
Millions of Russians saw this and maybe think, Putin…he’s not all that. He can’t even stop a protest during the biggest sporting event in the world and viewed, perhaps, by billions across the globe.
All you can do is admire them. Let’s try to be brave and determined enough ourselves that we don’t have to be that brave and determined at some juncture in the too-near future.
More people love, respect, and trust Pussy Riot than Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin combined.
Pussy Riot is doing what Donnie won’t do. It has come to this.
When informed, Dotard undoubtedly had an entirely different idea of what Pussy Riot entails…
Are there videos?
The Spanish broadcast showed them for more than a few seconds, but we did not see the high five. The announcers only said something to the effect that there were people on the field, which we could of course see.
They are so brave.
Unlike the US the protesters might find themselves shot for their troubles.
Of course, protests like this are something our dear leader would truly want to punish with extreme prejudice if he could.
Putin locked up the members of Pussy Riot for a couple years after their church protest. I think these protesters will serve some years, too.
