How does this law works in practice, especially in relation to the Victory Day, and soviet monuments?
Public display of communist symbols is banned but there's a clause relating to historical objects and monuments. You could be fined for a t-shirt with a USSR State Emblem but I believe existing monuments are untouched and exempted. That's why the Vatutin monument in Kyiv wasn't removed and why Zhukov's monument endured a very long legal battle. Sadly, even though some of those monuments do have historical and artistic value, the current situation will likely expedite their removal.

So, if this price hike is caused by the war, and he's against the price hike, why is he also against a negotiated treaty to end the war? His stated objective is regime change in Moscow, after all. (Which means even if Russia gave in to absurd demands like "returning Crimea to Ukraine," regime change would still be the end game.)

I know his people walked that back (though he, himself, never really did), but I imagine the Russian government was paying attention.

I wonder where the 10-15 bullshit comes from

The newly added article 207.3 of the Criminal Code penalizes “public dissemination of deliberate false information about the use of Russian Armed Forces,” with penalties ranging from large fines to imprisonment of up to three years. Those who allegedly disseminate such false information using their “official position” or as part of an organized group or accompanied by “artificial creation of evidence for prosecution;” or “guided by greed, or motivated by political, ideological, race, ethnic or religious hatred or hatred against a social group” could face five to ten years in prison. In the event of “grave consequences” the penalty is imprisonment from 10 to 15 years with a ban on carrying out a profession or certain activities for up to 5 years. Russian criminal law does not contain an exhaustive list of what constitutes “grave consequences” and depending on the specific crime, law enforcement and courts have interpreted it to include significant financial loss and bodily harm or death. What might constitute a grave consequence of disseminating alleged false information, is therefore essentially at the discretion of the prosecution.

The majority of ukiebros are as such.
To be honest though, some part of putinbros and russiabros are not better, but hey, we keep the convo relatively polite, for compensate the lack of informative matter.
That nagging fishwife is a deserter who wants other people to war over the country that he has refused to defend. Moreover he has repeatedly derailed this thread with personal insults and offering conversations in very bad faith. Fuck him.
 
Jesus...once again, play the ball, not the person. Insults and personal attacks don't advance our collective knowledge at all. I come here looking for information, not to whack people.
You saw the first thread, I believe. It was no different until mods came about from time to time. They are gone now. We keep postings in new reality.
I blame Obama. He shat on my doorstep a few years back.
