So I’m still learning about how gaslight I’ve been about the imperial powers and communist countries. (DPRK blew my mind) I’m now to the point of assuming most of what I’ve known or heard is wrong or straight up lies. All that just to ask, I read some time ago about the terrible anti LGBT+ laws in capitalist Russia. Not to mention how evil Putin is in general. However, since lurking and now joining Lemmygrad, I’m seeing the way people talk about current day Russia and its making me want to ask about its current state especially in regards to LGBT+ rights. I try to look into it online, but honestly, at this point, I trust the people here more than whatever capitalist run outlet I’m likely to find online. I’m pretty sure Russia isn’t a paradise today but I’m wondering what’s actually going on with things.
Thanks
Russia is about as bad as you can get on queer rights without outright having queer people executed.
Putin, generally, is evil and so are his associates. They’re just a lesser evil when compared to the Great Satan that is the USA. I still hope to see his whole party removed from power within my lifetime and for socialism to return to Russia.
