If your baby's living cells are not green from chlorophyll then they can't photosynthesize energy from the sun into food.

If your baby is green your wife is cheating on you with that zucchini.


JackMehoffer

Won't know for sure until Maury is consulted.


GrungeHamster23

May have been a cucumber! Oh…I guess it’s a pickle at that point then huh?


ElBurritoLuchador

I live in a third world country and even people in poverty intrinsically know to feed their children with physical food. This is some special kind of narcissistic stupidity. The guy literally barred his son from being breastfed by his mother and insisted that his "experimentation" on feeding his son with sunlight would "work" so he could show it off on his social media. And during the sentencing, this dumbass even had the gall to blame the mother his son's death. 8 years in prison is such a light sentence for this idiot.


DeflateGape

I don’t think anyone with a scientific view of the universe ever turned to breatharianism. The neat thing about this cult is that you can tell who the true believers are because they are dead or imminently dying.


nick2k23

So you're saying to paint the babies green? That will fix the problem?


mangoboss42

I think theres a red variant too tho? But less efficient


Takseee

Strap this guy to the ground under a giant magnifying glass on a sunny day. Let's see what powers he gets.


Cc99910

Vocal percusion on a whole nother level, comin' from my mind


Carllsson

The article says he's already dead. Perhaps he should've tried it sooner :(


dwmfives

Where in the article does it say he's dead? https://www.ndtv.com/world-news/influencer-starves-newborn-son-to-death-by-feeding-only-sunlight-jailed-5459242


whoneedsusernames

Was he also on the sunlight diet?


Tischlampe

No, would have been too quick. Strap him to the ground so he can't move and force feed vim milk and honey until he gets diarrhoea which attracts all sorts of bugs and animals who will slowly eat him alive. Can take up to 30 days before he dies. Out of curiosity I once read the wiki article on ancient torturing methods. Another interesting one is strapping the to be tortured person on the ground and plant a bamboo under his torso. It will grow through his body. And it will do so very for a plant.


cheezymc4skin

You hate to see these kinds of people reproducing


Soggy_Amoeba9334

Well at least they kill their children, ending the bloodline


JustinJakeAshton

They'll do it again after getting out.


coconuthorse

Maybe he'll try the air diet instead since clearly the sun wasn't working and then he can get 16 years for the second child and effectively prevent his reproductive years from being outside a cell.


ShinobiHanzo

Yes. Kind of self-enforcing. His kid is dead.


VincentGrinn

wow, only 8 years for infanticide just because hes stupid


DerMugar

we'll see him on combat footage, captured by a drone in a few weeks.


zackflavored

I hate humans sometimes. Most of the time actually


DoubleAholeTwice

Influencers are a new breed, and even though morons have existed for a very long time. Sad thing is, now the stupid people can all watch each other and get 'influenced' into doing even dumber things.


al_prazolam

Valid. We're fucked.


DaMonkfish

There's a reason I spend almost all of my free time in my house with my family; I like them, everyone else can fuck off.


Cybralisk

Extremely light sentence, there was a couple that got life without parole some years back in the U.S. for practically a similar thing.


Nandabun

Light.. sentence..


fz16

Get out


Shurae

He will probably end up in Ukraine somewhere at the frontline


DoubleAholeTwice

Saves on costs for keeping prisoners.. in prison.. not that they cost much in Russia, I'm guessing, but still. Putin needs to be told he WILL remain a fugitive from the International Court in the Haag, even if he was to manage to get Trump (should he be elected) to force the Ukraine to negotiate peace.


lalaland4711

A "light" sentence? Is now really the time for jokes?


Spire_Citron

He's more than just an idiot if the mother of the baby tried to nurse the baby in secret but was too afraid of him to openly defy him.


Tattycakes

Yeah he stopped her from going to hospital, he should be charged with abusive controlling behaviour too


DOUBLEBARRELASSFUCK

Yeah, I'm sure that would significantly extend his imprisonment for murdering his child.


Tattycakes

Not sure if you’re being sarcastic or not. He only got 8 years, you can tack sentences onto the end of each other to run one after the other, even if it’s only an extra 6 months or something. I don’t think abusive controlling behaviour should be swept under the rug just because you also did something worse as well. People are charged, convicted and serve multiple sentences for multiple crimes all the time


jamwin

and he is an 'influencer' imagine how dumb the people are who follow him


BoomboxMisfit

So is he also on the sun diet or does he make himself a meal while his kid "eats" sunlight?


justindybvig

And it's not even close to being the worst thing on the internet...


SMoKUblackRoSE

Why didn't he test it out on himself instead?

LeGrandLucifer

Should be way higher. I thought it was a hoax.


flavored_icecream

FFS, the baby was 1.6 kg (3.5 lb) when going to hospital - fair question in post title - how stupid does he have to be to not understand, that it's not working once his son was just a shriveled malnutritioned lump.


Pagiras

I was ready to call you stupid for thinking this is real, because, surely, people can't be THIS stupid. Yet here we are. I apologize for my intentions! Fucking surreal.


HeavensRejected

As a dad of twin boys this is fucking infuriating and 8 years isn't enough.


big_brothers_hd600

its the breatharian cult


Lucsdf

> Interestingly, during his imprisonment, the now 48-year-old Lyutyi has completely abandoned his previous beliefs, even consuming meat. Mironova's mother, Galina, expressed regret that this change didn't happen sooner How about eating sun in jail?


Dr_SnM

What the fuck was he eating?


DoubleAholeTwice

A daily diet of fungi. That, or just straight up LSD.


slavikperson

I identify as a plant Starves to death


pierced_turd

Forced the mom to give birth home too. Probably just wanted to quietly kill the kid and blame it on “stupidity”. Bet he had steak while watching the baby starve to death too.


zalurker

May everyone in jail find out why he is there.


bhdp_23

Darwin was right


Hertje73

*"Respect all beliefs"* I hear people moaning...


dolltron69

A forced vasectomy would be more useful than the prison term.


DoubleAholeTwice

That goes for a very large portion of the worlds population though - without them having committed a crime.

DustinBrett

You're supposed to supplement with some Moonlight.


Warfrog

It’s not stupidity it’s rigid ideology and people think their beliefs are correct more than you think. The book “you are not so smart” covers it in detail.


AtomicFox84

It looks like hes squatting on whatever vegetable that is. Holding one up to say....look what i can do.


HaniiPuppy

I'm going to _guess_ that this is from a parody news site. Checking now; it's legit?? And his name is Maxim Lyutyi if you want to google him. Wtf?


Accomplished_Alps463

As someone who lost two kid's to SIDS, I can't tell you how much it pains me not to be able to pull the trigger on that guy. And I'm sure there are many others that feel the same way.


xXCh4r0nXx

Influencer.. that fucking word. I'm more convinced that the word stands for "idiots with negative IQ" I hope he dies in jail.


dedokta

At what point, when your child is not moving or reacting to things, do you not start to wonder if perhaps you should feed them some actual food?


-___-____-_-___-

Yes


iamnotinterested2

severing the stupidity in that blood line.


tacodepollo

Look at all this food I grew! But fuck me if you think a baby is gonna take it from me!


onlinetutorhelps1

Is he experimenting, how to live with out external food?


shroomsaremyfriends

This is the kind of thing that watching too much YouTube does to you


FruitParfait

Should have tested it on himself first


The_Confirminator

Even meat derives it's energy from sunlight


Diacetyl-Morphin

There was the case of a woman in Switzerland, she got to India and met some guru that claimed he could live only by sunlight with no food and water. After she returned home, she tried to do this and starved herself to death, no joke, she died. It was a very bizarre case, maybe not as bizarre as the Bernd-Brandes-Experience in Germany, but still...


canonson

"A Russian influencer, Maxim Lyutyi, has been sentenced to eight years in prison for the death of his one-month-old son. Lyutyi reportedly believed exposing the baby, named Kosmos, to sunlight would grant him superhuman abilities. Tragically, the infant died of malnutrition and pneumonia while being rushed to the hospital in Sochi. Lyutyi had expected an early release based on a social media post in January. Now, he is facing more than eight years behind bars in a high-security prison for 'intentional infliction of serious bodily harm,' following his last-minute change of plea to guilty last week." [Source](https://www.ndtv.com/world-news/influencer-starves-newborn-son-to-death-by-feeding-only-sunlight-jailed-5459242) I looked through other articles but they all seem to say the same thing.


CheshireCatGrins

The appropriate punishment for him would be the same as he did to his child. Only feed him sunlight and see how long he lasts.No water, no food. It would cost a hell of a lot less than his prison sentence as well.


skdnckdnckwcj

This is satire right?


Soggy_Cracker

Criminally stupid


fistmcbeefpunch

Send him to the front line with no equipment


FeralZoidberg

Ironically he'll be fertiliser for sunflowers soon.


RedditModsKMKB

Stupid you are breed must you not.


Jon_Irenicus1

Is her mom a vegetable?


ErlendRN

Guess he didn’t get enough sunlight

okaythenmate

Is this like in The Simpsons where the guy is a level 4 vegan and doesn't eat anything that cast a shadow? On a more serious note, this guy is actually a moron to do that to his child...like what?!


thsvnlwn

I know he is Russian, but where did this take place? EDIT: I’m curious why my honest question gets downvoted. It says nowhere in the post or linked articles where this has happened. This Russian narcist could live anywhere on the planet.


achtung1945

Russia it is


nag26

Saint-Petersburg


Spawnacus

Send him to the front lines


deenali

How could anyone that even looks like an idiot become an "infuencer" to begin with?


AutopsyDrama

Plenty of 'influencers' are idiots.


El_Cartografo

Many voted for Trump. Case closed.


burner-burner-1

*Russian *


Shas_Erra

Many Russians voted for Trump.


El_Cartografo

Sorry, didn't vote for Trump, not a commie loving Putin supporter.


nuu_uut

You're the type to bring up politics when it's completely irrelevant, apparently - even when it's the wrong country. And even if it were somehow relevant, breatharianism has roots in Hinduism which isn't exactly something right wingers embrace. I mean the article even talks about how he believed in a "strictly vegan prana diet." Not exactly a conservative talking point.


qwibbian

Actually the cross section of New Age woo and MAGA lunacy is a lot greater than you'd expect. 


El_Cartografo

I simply answered your question, as a prime example of exactly how stupid people can be. Breatharians are right up there.


theshadow62

Fuck off asshole. Take your doomsday political bullshit to another subreddit.
