They already came for LGBT. First group to be targeted, just like the last time. No points for guessing who is next.
Hmmm. I feel like I’ve heard this before. >

No we don’t need anymore immigrants claiming our taxes. >

You mean growing the tax base? Working, getting taxed for said work, helping you pay for your roads and such…
Be less reactionary. >

Can your housing support said newcomers? >

If they have enough money they could pay for new builds. >

As a US citizen, we could say the same. But I'm gonna jump out on a ledge and guess that, cost of living to wage is marginally offset atm >

It’s a modern day Fiddler on the Roof. >

Wasn't that in Ukraine? >

It was in the Czarist Russian Empire which included Ukraine at the time.  It also wasn’t the only time Russia was shit to the Jewish people. My husband’s family has been leaving in stages since the 19th century up through this past year. >

Hell, one MILLION Jews left the Soviet bloc the instant it collapsed. Most of them went to israel, the rest seemed to have moved to suburban Brooklyn where they live in the ugliest houses on the planet >

Idk if I’d call anywhere in Brooklyn the suburbs but yeah, big community here. >

I live in Manhattan so anywhere you can reasonably get around by car is the suburbs. One of the Russian families had a hummer, why on earth do you need that?  Didn’t even fit in the garage. >

I’m in Brooklyn, and more than a little familiar with the communities you are talking about. I get how it could seem a bit suburban to a Manhattanite, but the real suburbs you can’t meaningfully walk to anywhere and people have proper yards. >

Yeah my grandparents are from Texas, there’s like an eight lane highway right by their house and the closest store is 1 mile away >

Everyone should leave Russia … while they can. >

Should come to Israel, god knows we need some more secular people to balance the religious mad men in charge >

Bro, it’s ISRAEL. It’s a land tied directly to religion. It’s basically in the soil. >

Sure, but it's also steeped in history, and modern Zionism resulting in the establishment of Israel was headed up by secular leaders. >

“We’re seeing rising antisemitism while Russia is going back to a new kind of Soviet Union, and step by step the iron curtain is coming down again. This is why I believe the best option for Russian Jews is to leave,” Pinchas Goldschmidt, former chief Rabbi of Moscow >

Russias transition to a full nazi state is almost complete...
