I would ask why anyone responds to posts like these but that would be changing the topic. Instead I’ll say this. Obvious conspiracy bait to fool dimwits. Reposted here for trolling purposes only. My recommendation, put the OP on ignore.

If going by thread title?
It's safe to say this is a pro putin thread and anti Ukraine. Connect the dots and see the result.
If you put everybody you do not agree with on lignore, you will simply be playing with yourself.

Sort of a “Masturbation by Discussion”.

It’s called a circle jerk. Plenty of them around, Reddit being a good example.

In my opinion the ignore button is your friend. Takes out a lot of the cruft that is usually posted just to get a rise out of people. IE Trolling. As is the case here.

Zelensky's regime has just banned the Ukrainian Orthodox Church

Zelensky’s satanic regime violently SHUTTING DOWN Christian churches in Ukraine.

The Zelensky regime is using US taxpayer money to close and destroy orthodox churches, so the faithful hold mass outside. This is Palm Sunday for the orthodox.

Zelensky is expanding his crackdown on Christian churches. There are no civil rights in Ukraine - no elections, no freedom of association, press, speech, or religion.

Zelensky just announced that he is banning the Ukrainian Orthodox Church. He’s now banned news stations, political parties, jailed opposition leaders, and now religious organizations.

On Friday, after banning all TV platforms in Ukraine into one state broadcast, jailing political rivals, and restricting opposition political parties, Zelensky has now banned the Ukrainian Orthodox Church!

----------------------------------------------------------

Vladimir Putin and Russia have officially banned the Satanic Temple, labeling it an "undesirable organization" and accusing it of promoting violence and supporting extremist and terrorist activities.

Russia has outlawed the Satanic Temple. Russia has deemed it as undesirable and blasphemous of traditional religious values.

As you can see I've provided links to numerous sources spelling out EXACTLY what the OP posted. Are you going to accept that you are wrong and edit your post? It's clear you have NO evidence for that which you claim, so I would expect the Mods to be along shortly to modify your post since they are now doing fact checking on threads.

Thats going to get really tiresome quickly... But hey, they wanted the job.

Secondly he’s banned a specific Russian based church. If I was in a war with Russia I might consider closing that branch of the church until after the end of the conflict.

Third I don’t believe that Ukraine has the freedom of religion in their constitution. US citizens being butthurt over it is idiotic.

Fourth HoHound’s use of the words “arrest” “bans” and “Satanism” in the thread title and the link to a twitter post that includes no context of any kind is not designed to inform but rather to convey outrage and grievance.

That Makes This Thread nothing but a giant TROLL FEST.

Whoa way to defend democracy. But at least you are ACTUALLY agreeing that Zelensky is closing churches.. which you specifically said was a conspiracy theory. WHy do you think that Zelensky closed Orthodox Churches if those links to X are insufficient evidence? I mean you claim that X links are not valid, but then basically agree with the links I provided you. Seems odd.

Third I don’t believe that Ukraine has the freedom of religion in their constitution. US citizens being butthurt over it is idiotic. Originally Posted by txdot-guy
