In despotic Russia, not only is the state not allowed to take your children away from you to be sterilized and mutilated as a treatment for gender dysphoria, but since 2022, under the cruel dictatorship of the inhuman monster Vladimir Putin, sex transition procedures are forbidden.

I am no fan of Vladimir Putin. He has no end of blood on his hands. But our own Mengeles commit monstrous, AMA-approved, atrocities right here and we shrug. We do not need to search the world for demons to slay, we are up to our necks with our own. In our own communities. Our own homes.
Lord have mercy on our souls.

The bishops in the USSR were KGB to a man. Putin was KGB, and understands the uses of a strong church. Any inferences concerning the corruption of other bishops in other countries is left as an exercise for the reader.
Maybe purely a pragmatic move–hoping to nudge Russia’s birthrate up a bit by not allowing those “treatments.”
