For some reason, Russia is wading deeper and deeper into this lunatic virus hoax. A lawmaker from Vladimir Putin’s United Russia party actually said publicly that he would shoot people with fake vaxx cards.
As Russians flock to the black market for fake vaccine certificates, provincial lawmaker Vladimir Sidorov offers a solution: Shoot them all.
“I’d join the firing squad myself,” he says, apparently not joking. Obviously the United Russia member never did anything to skirt rules. pic.twitter.com/4CyYvMPzpw

This man is obviously unhinged and needs help as he seems to be a true believer in this dumb hoax. Shooting people for having a fake vaxx card is quite an extreme thing to say.
There is zero benefit for Russia to go along with this hoax, but even they’ve been sucked into it.
To Putin’s credit, he hasn’t gone along with forced-vaxxing and some of the more extreme nonsense we’ve seen around the world. But even still, he has people in his own party pushing this madness and that is not good.
I’m trying to think of countries you can go to in order to escape this hoax and there aren’t many. Nearly every country in the world has been going along with this hoax in some capacity. I guess Belarus would be the best option? Sweden perhaps? I don’t even know any more.
