Russian official says the US is turning Ukrainians into a ‘gay zombie army’

“These renewed troops of Ukraine’s Armed Forces, zombified and unified through gay sex.” These were the words of Sergei Markov.
"These renewed troops of Ukraine's Armed Forces, zombified and unified through gay sex, along with cult members ready to sacrifice themselves. This is what they're preparing for us in the spring 2025."

These were the words of Sergei Markov, a Russian political scientist and former advisor to Russian President Vladimir Putin during a recent television appearance on Russian state television.

Markov is a former member of the Russian State Duma, the lower house of the country’s federal legislative body, a professor of political science at Moscow State University, and a lecturer on philosophy. He’s also known for his wild reactionary statements. His claim that the Ukrainian Army will suddenly become homosexual supersoldiers is just the latest.

"Military theorists and historians know which army in Greece was the strongest, remember? The Spartans! They were united by a homosexual brotherhood. These were the politics of their leadership. I think they are planning the same for Ukraine's Armed Forces," Markov said.

The Ukranian military should dress a bunch of them in pink leather jackets with lace collars and sleeves with "we're going to lick your *sses!" printed on the backs. That will flummox even the toughest Ruskie!

"Military theorists and historians know which army in Greece was the strongest, remember? The Spartans! They were united by a homosexual brotherhood. These were the politics of their leadership. I think they are planning the same for Ukraine's Armed Forces," Markov said.

The single-sentence quote doesn't make clear whether Markov's "they" referred to the US, Ukraine, or Spartan ghosts, but I think his history is off. Spartan military culture did include older, experienced warriors "mentoring" maturing teens, which could include being sexually intimate, but their age difference would have almost precluded such partners fighting alongside each other. It was Thebes that had a unit (a unit, not their whole army) called the "Sacred Band" which was made up of homosexual pairs. IIRC, it was Thebes that overcame Sparta in a major battle, starting the decline of Spartan power.
