    Even so, it would violate the anti-gay propaganda laws in Russia.

    Ain't that ironic, considering a country where the "hardest men" their most powerful leaders kissed each other all the time? LOL

    Someone tell me the difference between this:



    And that:

    People in the country aren't even aware of it for the most part, how the media networks manipulate the content we get.
    Are you kidding? They are airing it during PRIME TIME because that is when the majority of people are available to watch it (and also when commercials make the most money). This is the same as every Olympics that is outside of US time zones, no matter what network was airing it.

    Incidentally, you could watch it on NBC's web pages if you wanted... *gasp* Uncensored!

    I'm pretty sure they played that lesbian card back in the days only to get more attention, because as "musicians" they're completely talentless and generic. If I remember correct, they were quite famous for a few years by the time they claimed to be lesbian. Plus various other attention whore actions here and there support that thought. They were just brought back as some sort of comeback to that media bullshit that it's illegal to be gay in Russia.

    Speaking of funny/ironic pseudo-gay things with the Sochi Olympics:





    And just for fun, also at Sochi:

    'Twas a cutlass swipe or an ounce of lead
    Or a yawing hole in a battered head
    And the scuppers clogged with rotting red
    And there they lay I damn me eyes

    I wonder if the other half of the toilet is on the other side of the wall. If so it would be awesome if you could use both at the same time.

    You can't even raise the lid. And only one side would have access to the flushing handle.

    It's not about the censorship. It's about the aliens. They don't want you to see it live.
