Editing to add a correction that shows this Russian monster is even worse than she seemed at first:

1. Russian society appears to be pretty warped.

Even MAGA crowd wouldn't say shit like this. Ironically the GOPers love Pootie not just for authoritarianism but because Russia supposedly upholds "traditional Christian family values". But much of what I've seen from Russia during this war makes their whole country look really sick and twisted.

2. Yes, MAGATs say this kind of thing.

They were roaming the halls of the Capitol looking for Nancy Pelosi. They were holding zip ties and ropes.

3. Yeah--but that's them indulging a fantasy of arresting/tarring/feathering

politicians, because they read too much Facebook and watch too many movies, and Trump got them all hopped up to threaten Congress like that. It's nuts and unhealthy, and they belong in jail. But it's nowhere on a level of endorsing your own husband to rape other women, because you see those other women as subhuman. That's beyond sick and perverted.

7. The sentiment isn't unusual in some wonen. Back in the 70's and 80's,

I heard from more than a handful of military wives that they didn't care what their men in the Philippines or Guam or Japan did unless they didn't use protection or do it with a white woman. Those foreign women or girls were just LBFMs to them, not human.
These same women left their kids with a baby-sitter on Friday nights to head out to the clubs for some male companionship so they could still feel like desirable women or something like that while their men were gone for six months, then went to church on Sundays with their kids.
I saw those same women every time I was stuck with my monthly base shore patrol duty and had to check I.D.s at the base club.
Were these women monsters? They were certainly messed up between racism, narcissism with a good dose of immaturity and self-doubt about their choices and worth in life.

8. I think using the word "rape" (which is apparently the translation, unless I'm mistaken)

is the sick and monstrous part. That implies victimizing and hurting a woman, not merely getting your urges taken care of with someone in a consensual transaction. (Now, I was a military wife for 20 years, and my husband served a remote year in Korea and was TDY in many other places--while I understand a lot of cheating and hinky shit goes on among spouses during times of separation, especially with the "local girls" who were always around the American bases in the bars and stuff, I would never condone, excuse or accept any of that in my marriage. But again we're talking about rape here, not weird little arrangements.)

9. Cheating is one thing (not that I'm OK, with it) rape is something else. If I had a husband who

did such a thing I couldn't stomach to even look at him. It's so sick and evil.

4. These people are sick!

5. Utterly sick

I bet she gets off on the idea in some kind of weird way
