doggedly backed the invasion of Ukraine, calling it a Holy War

Yeah I don't really give a shit about their concept of the male gender. Apparently it involves fathering many children, so that Russia doesn't run out of soldiers for the hundred years of glorious holy war it will take to defeat NATO and save the world. If you really want to reach the ultimate heights of manliness, try wearing eye shadow, practicing embroidery, and watching Hello Kitty while remaining confidently masculine.

By the way, Ciril's deranged proclamations of "holy war" are ridiculous. Ukraine is also an Orthodox country.
