I suppose one might argue that non-drinking-themselves-to-death Russians are a systemically oppressed group in Russia. But it would be a very weak argument.

Let's see… what can we make fun of Putin for, when he's a Russian straight male and President… in some way that takes advantage of the non-Russian-straight-male privilege that the majority in power have?

oh...

NOTHING!
