A Russian official was arrested for a meme about "roosters"
The head of the Uzbek community, Usman Baratov, was imprisoned for two months because of a joke on the Internet.
Russian Telegram channels write about it.
The head of the Uzbek community, "Vatandosh", is suspected by the Russian law enforcement system of "inciting hatred or enmity" because of the picture he posted on the Odnoklasnyky social network. It depicts a rooster with the phrase: "F**k you, not eggs! Bring back the "roosters" from the front!"
The meme offended the soldiers, and they reported it to the Investigative Committee. Baratov himself stated that this is "a satirical photo of chickens that has nothing to do with the images of the so-called "SVO" [That is how the war against Ukraine is named in Russia - Ed.] members."
Baratov did not admit guilt. Linguistic and computer-technical expertise was appointed in the case.
Medvedev offers to train Ukrainians to prepare New Year's salads
In particular, Medvedev, who has yet another exacerbation, proposes to deprive Ukrainian citizens of their liberty for up to 7 years to prepare or distribute such famous New Year's salads as "herring under a fur coat" and "Olivier".
It also proposes prison terms of 7 to 17 years for repeat "offenders."
A similar punishment should be introduced for those who prepared New Year's salads "using their official position", according to the current deputy head of the Security Council of the Russian Federation.
