Last month, police roundups euphemistically called "migration raids" took place in several Russian regions, with police and military conscription officials targeting food markets and agricultural warehouses, both places where migrant labourers are typically employed. Anyone found to have recently obtained Russian citizenship but who hadn’t registered with the local conscription office was reportedly either issued with draft notices on the spot or taken to the military authorities directly.

Russians have made many things work, stupid Westoid!!

For example: extreme propaganda, building strong alliances with brutal dictatorships, assassinating political opponents, smashing things into the moon, terrorist attacks on hospitals, extreme wealth inequality.
