Russian court bans 'LGBT movement'
BBC ^

Posted on 11/30/2023 8:02:10 AM PST by MNDude

Russia's Supreme Court has declared what it calls "the international LGBT public movement" an extremist organisation and banned its activities across the country.

The ruling was prompted by a motion from the justice ministry, even though no such organisation exists as a legal entity.

The hearing was held behind closed doors, but reporters were allowed in to hear the court's decision. Nobody from "the defendant's side" had been present, the court said.

Russia's constitution was changed three years ago to make it clear that marriage means a union between a man and a woman. Same-sex unions are not recognised here.

Well I expect plane loads of rainbow warriors to fly over and start protests there. Maybe even send some to mecca to protest the treatment moose limbs give out. IF they REALLY REALLY cared they would.

The Court’s decision and the Constitution’s definition of marriage are correct.

The Ruskies get something right, good for them.

"Russian society is soaked in fear. With every word you're crossing a mine field. Say one thing and it might land you in prison for five years; say something else, and you'll get 10 or 15 years behind bars."

Wow that kind of sounds like the US under the control of the communist democrat party these days.

Yes it seems like the Russians are standing up to all this LGBT stuff.

For whatever reason the Western world has bent over for the homosexual movement.

I remember hearing something recently that America had put Uganda on some sort of Hit List , denying aid because Uganda has some laws against homosexuality.

So in that case, we’ve gone from saying we are tolerant of homosexuality, to saying that we are pushing for homosexuality or endorsing or affirming homosexuality.

Many parts of the world are just simply not tolerant of all this LGBT business

In contrast, the EU and its one-world commmunist allies are banning OPPOSITION to the LGBT movement. Russia is the better choice.

It has nothing to do with the Russian people, it is just a tool the mobocracy uses to gain cover from the Orthodox Church, a Church that is in a symbiotic relationship with what it knows is a dictaorship, and one that protects its (the Orthodox Church) secular and financial interests.

“Anti LGBT stance is bad. Got it.”

The point is that with Putin and the mobocracy that has zero to do with their motives. They NEED the Orthodox Church in their camp, to cover their wickedness. THAT is why the mobocracy does things to appear “anti” LGBT. The LBGT issues are just a foil for them.

Either way, the Russians are saying no to the globohomo perverts and protecting their children and culture and THAT IS A GOOD THING.

This is not “the Russians”, anynore than it is “the Chinese” when the CCP makes decisions in China. As I said, this is just the Putin mobobocracy buying its “street kreds” with the Orthodox Church, which the Orthodox Church will gladly provide in return for protction of its secular and financial interests.

The geopolitical advantage for this for the mobocracy is it also buys support for it from ignorant Americans.

You sir, are mentally deficient.

Out of spite,you would want to unleash on any country you dislike the globohomo abuse and rape of their children. It is disgusting and evidence of a vindictive and subpar intellect.

Get a clue, most people on this thread think you’re an idiot.

No, sir, you are.

You put domestic things under a mobocracy in Russia in your own U.S. domestic context, as if the political reasons behind them are the same. They are not. They are what serves the mobocracy, not YOUR interests. You think they serve what you think is a desirable outcome, when the outcome the mobocracy is interested in is not at all the same as yours, its just buying political cover with the Orthodox Church, period.
