Its a reasonable question and definitely not "off limits". I also want to understand how far right his social and political allegiances are "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

213374U Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Milonov is a religious nutjob. He also proposed to ban theory of evolution from schools, ban MTV for "immorality", and grant "citizenship rights" to human embryos. I was frankly surprised he would allow himself to be recorded having a conversation in these terms with a foreign journalist (or whatever Fry is). "Let's discuss how retarded your political program is" is not exactly the kind of interview format I'm used to seeing, that's for sure. But I'm going to assume that if he was elected, his ideas must resonate with some people, at least. Disclaimer: I have no idea how elections work in Russia. 1 - When he is best, he is a little worse than a man, and when he is worst, he is little better than a beast.

He's not an actual person, which is what is required to be a part of a community. There is no personality there, he has one function and he executes it tirelessly. Anyways I'm sure I'll get in trouble for talking about posters. I should note that I enjoy Malcador's personality every day. I'm not being facetious, I appreciate your skeptical look and your ability not to get caught up in things, it keeps many of us grounded here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AGX-17 Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 I'm shocked that such a creature was elected to an office of responsibility. That sort of child-like naivety is just adorable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BruceVC Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 I'm shocked that such a creature was elected to an office of responsibility. That sort of child-like naivety is just adorable. Really? I watch interviews with politicians all the time and that guy has one of the worst perspectives around gay rights I have ever seen. I have seen worse, in Uganda they have just passed a law where they have criminalized homosexual acts. On CNN they interviewed the minister responsible for the legislation around this and during the interview they asked him " how can you pass a law that contradicts the human rights of people and what the African Charter for Human Rights stand for, especially considering the fact Uganda signed up to the AU charter" He responded calmly " he doesn't think gay people have any rights " 1 "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

You're aware that there are people like that in the United States aswell, right? He's on the same level as creationists. Civilization, in fact, grows more and more maudlin and hysterical; especially under democracy it tends to degenerate into a mere combat of crazes; the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary. - H.L.

TrashMan Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 What never ceases to amaze me is just how aggressive people on both sides of the fence can be. "Pacifist" that want to kill all "warmongers" "Progressive" people that in the end, are just as much a slave of dogma (of a different kind) as the people they are "tearing down" The only conclusion I can come to is that humanity itself is nothing more than a jumbled mess 1 * YOU ARE A WRONGULARITY FROM WHICH NO RIGHT CAN ESCAPE! *Chuck Norris was wrong once - He thought HE made a mistake!
