MODERATORS
Other than protest, is the idea that spoiling real-people ballots will make election-rigging even more obvious?
I think the idea is the whole election is illegitimate, so they’re taking a massive shit on it in lieu of Putin’s grave.
Probably protesting that there aren’t any actual alternatives as they’ve been eliminated.
Green dye?
Just a tad early for St. Patrick's Day, but you guys keep it up!
Damnit, I came here to make this joke on an otherwise serious issue, but now I can't because you great me to it.
I'll get you next time, banana!
It's Che Banana to you, I didn't spend 4 years in an Argentinian whore house to be called Banana
Took me a second to figure out the meaning of the green dye.
I actually have no idea, what is the meaning of the green?
Blue and yellow make green, the Ukrainian flag is blue and yellow.
Ahhh that's clever
If they're holding Russian elections in parts of Ukraine, and people are fucking with it, good.
