       When old Soviet Union jokes are applicable to the US, you know something has gone terribly wrong.

       @nazgul @benjamin The joke is even older than that, there’s a very similar one written down by a 12th-century Persian poet https://archive.org/details/AnvarisDivanAPocketBookforAkbar

       @benjamingeer@piaille.fr @nazgul@infosec.exchange @benjamin@piaille.frI wasn't even sure where it originated from, but I can confirm "proving you are not a camel", implying the presumption of guilt, is indeed a very common expression in Russia and I suppose in other ex-Soviet countries too. I think it won't be wrong to refer to it that way in the context of justice, even if the joke itself is much older 😅
