I'm confused. We emigrated to Canada a few decades ago, haven't looked back except to say "tole ya." Sask, maybe I could see departing/deporting from but that's just coastal bias.

In the 20s and 30s, a lot of them left. Ended up in labor concentration camps. Now the same thing will happen. They proclaimed that everything was done correctly! We can do it again!

I don't want to see the kids suffer, but the father is a nut job. You don't feel safe because LGBTQ people are not tossed off rooftops and are allowed their dignity as human beings in Canada? Wow...just wow

If they return to Canada, the state should check on the poor kids.

I clicked on a couple of those videos, it is almost amusing to listen to him try to convince everyone how beautiful it is when it is clearly depressing AF. I would laugh were it not for the kids.

The idea of a massive drain of Trumpers and conservatives to Russian from the US makes me sexually aroused. Please, let it be so.

When you're so useless, Russia ain't even gonna use you for propaganda.

Sorry, chuckleheads, they only really want rich and famous people for that purpose, not randos

I feel bad for their eight kids but it's always funny when these fucks end up hoisted from their own petards.

How long do you think his wife put up with this bullshit?

I am curious how their kombucha is. If it was tasty, I’d purchase a bottle to help support their quest for a white fascist homeland.

Those Russians think of everything!

Move to Russia get kicked out of apt. and get free mobile house!

They probably stole that tent idea, and tents don't have windows.

Most of this is true no matter when you emigrate. Sure, if you have plenty of money, a job skill in demand, and are of working age (and able to learn another language) it's relatively do-able, and its a big shock to people -- even if moving from one western wealthy country to another -- that things are very different.

If Russia is a rugged white man paradise, I know of a lot of white men who think they're rugged. We should send them all there. No women or children allowed 'cause they're not white men.

In my fantasies, Putin finally comes out as gay.
