    I don’t get it either. LGBTQ+ rights are a fight of itself. Why drag Ukraine into this? Without checking how Ukraine thinks about gay and trans rights? It has absolutely nothing to do with Pride activism.

        Russia has no bigger of a homophobia issue than any other country in the region. Poland, Hungary, Romania, Ukraine, they all use the same rhethoric, that gays are “pedophiles” and “liberal/western degenerates”. Even in the US darlings the Baltic States this idea is very common. But western media acts as if only Russia has this. Besides, the west using “LGBT activism” as a cover for western imperialism is literally promoting these ideas, since it validates the position that LGBT people are “western funded degenerates” sent to destoy the country. The west is literally making the problem worse.

        The “war for human rights” has replaced the “war on terrorism”.

        The war for human rights where they fight on the side of Nazis.

      It’s quite intentional. It’s a trap. You are either with TEAM GOOD GUYS (who obviously support everything Good ™ and like puppies and pride flags), or you are automatically TEAM EVIL VILLAINS, who eat puppies and hate gays. Proof? What are you, team evil? Think maybe supporting Nazis is not cool? You must hate gays then! Evil bad guy! Boo!

      It’s an attempt, arguably quite successful, to create an association between certain ideas and items, that don’t actually exist. And it works both ways, too.

          Funny you should mention children. I’ve seen posts like “Putin bathes in children’s blood to rejuvenate himself” or something along those lines. Give it time.

            No joke, here on spanish TV they are literally saying that Putin is dying of cancer and that he regularly bathes in deer blood to survive somehow.

              The “dying of cancer” narrative is apparently quite pervasive. It’s seeping into Russian media as well, to the point of (so I’ve heard) Lavrov had to come on TV and say it’s fake. To which the reaction was “well if he’s saying it’s fake, it must 100% be true!”.
