A court in the central Russian city of Nizhny Novgorod has jailed a woman for wearing rainbow earrings, the human rights group Egida reported late Wednesday, marking the second case of its kind after Russia banned the so-called “LGBT movement” as an “extremist” organization in November. According to Egida, law enforcement agents tasked with combating “extremism” detained the woman after a group of “aggressive people” approached her and her friend at a local cafe and filmed them on camera.
“the imperial powers use lgbt rights/feminism as a wedge fot justifying imperialism” ought to be met with these governments resolving the grievances of these movements so they can’t be coopted into anti-government plots.
it’s bad morally and it’s bad strategy,
Yea “they’re pointing out a bad thing we do to make us look bad” is pretty fucking weak
That’s what some socialist countries are doing, like Cuba and Vietnam. I don’t expect a lot out of Russia though.
The East German method.
