The problem with a lemmy.ml boycott is that there's no one here to point out this obvious nonsense.
What part of it is "obvious nonsense?" Pointing at something and calling it nonsense doesn't explain why, it's just mudslinging.

«для действительного осуществления исправительно-трудовой политики режим в местах заключения должен быть лишен всяких признаков мучительства, отнюдь не допуская применения физического воздействия: кандалов, наручников, карцера, строго-одиночного заключения, лишения пищи, свиданий заключенных с их посетителями через решотку».

I really didn't know what to point at as nonsense... Prior iterations included: ComLib andRussian text translated using deepl:
"for the effective implementation of the correctional labour policy, the regime in places of detention must be devoid of any signs of torture, by no means allowing the use of physical force: shackles, handcuffs, punishment cells, strictly solitary confinement, deprivation of food, visits of prisoners with their visitors through the bars".
From От Тюрем к Воспитательным Учреждениям [From Prisons to Educational Institutions]
It's actually authoritarian to not use handcuffs, silly, because you have to rely on mind control. /s
Isn't the point of a boycott that you then don't have to deal with something?
I check out your instance sometimes, and it's wall to wall people gnashing their teeth and rending their garments about our existence. They're obsessed with us, and the things they say are all the things in this meme. It seems like a bad time over there.
If it's so obvious y'all would simply point at a credible source disproving us and we'd be done with it, instead you resort to thought terminating cliches and blatant propaganda that is easily disproven even without going to non-western sources. And that's when you bother to google a source.
Sounds like you have TDS, maybe get that checked out
