I want to make sure I have this straight-

The US improves the lives of almost every man, woman and child on the planet in addition to being civilization’s role model for the last 200yrs yet Russia is the moral superior?

Does that about sum up today’s hate America, pro Russia trash?

All part of the Communist play book to take over th U.S.A. and the democrats with their perverted philosophy are a major part of it.

I agree with a lot of that but yes there is.

They are both immoral but one keeps it private and doesn’t corrupt the minds of our children.

It’s a difference of degree then?

That’s not repression. All they have to do to get equal justice is quit sodomizing - or at least keep it a secret.

Take your complaint to the nearest NAMBLA chapter, Zeeper.

“...sexual minorities...”

What a phrase. Let that sink in. Sexual minorities.

How about keeping your degenerate sexual lifestyles to yourself. Ever hear of the word “privacy”? Why do homosexuals demand that EVERYONE glorify their depraved sick perversions?

What about toe suckers or scat eaters? Why don’t THEY get special rights and an entire month to celebrate their fetishes? /spit

That’s true; all evil is evil, but some is more evil than others. Still doesn’t make it all right, though.

Then why don't you move to Russia?

You better not. You'll likely wind up in jail with this new law.

What is repression to some is liberation to others.

You really need to take a look around. Gay marriage, boys in girls locker rooms, men in woman sports, Transxyz’s in every .gov agency, destruction of the family, minor sex changes……Russia does have the moral high ground.

sex is good but sex is ultimately for BREEDING...

How many good things does it take for Putin to be a better leader of his country than the Democrats are for our country?

From the article:

“ Russia subsequently passed legislation imposing a blanket ban in July 2023 on “sex change” procedures as well as changing one’s gender identity on official documents and an array of other measures widely criticised as transphobic.”….

Yes Johnny, they have the high moral ground. I suspect you are also devastated with your leaders recent debate?

In Gaza, they would have given them a free ride - from the top of a tall building.

All a matter of what each society is willing to **tolerate**.

“Russia ordered the arrest of nightclub owner Vyacheslav Khasanov. The nightclub, which is called Pose, has never explicitly identified as a gay club – styling itself as a ‘parody theatre bar’, it hosted parties with drag queen artists and go-go dancers as entertainment.”

If you do this in Russia they arrest you, but in Ukraine, they promote you to President.

Sounds like a “new era of restoration” of common sense to me.

Gay people don’t deserve special rights. But, neither do they deserve to arrested.

What about the ones propagandizing and grooming children? …which is essentially what the Russian laws have amounted to.
