Authorities in the Russian Republic of Chechnya have announced a ban on music that they consider too fast or slow.

This is memeable, yes; but usually when news like this starts coming out a nation shit’s definitely gone sideways for it.
Eastern Europe is going though it right now. One of my old Polish colleagues fled to the UK becuase the Church is slowly taking over and becoming totalitarian. Even if you have a miscarriage you’d be investigated to see if “it was done on purpose” or not.
(From what I remember, this was just at the tail end of covid)
Interesting.
Putin’s rule over Russia is vastly different from Soviet Russia for many reasons but a big one is his friendship with the Eastern Orthodox Church.
That plus the Republican tie to the church is so strange.
I really wouldn’t be surprised if in the future they consider Christianity an organized crime syndicate of some sort. Overthrowing governments, definitely tied to human trafficking and I imagine they have hands in other shit too.
Fuck the church man, fuck all organized religions
Thankfully theocratical idjits are more tempered now by opposition but eh. Still shityy. Also, Poland is rather central europe, please do not group it with orks.
Seriously, music is as much free speech as any spoken or written word and can be incredibly powerful. Banning it shows an absurd amount of fear and hatred for any sense of individuality.
It just feels like a conservative one party government trying to fill in time before the next election with busy work.
Nothing pleases social conservatives more than cracking down on that weird music their kids listen to.
