KYIV, Ukraine — (AP) — Several hundred LGBTQ Ukrainian servicemen and their supporters marched in central Kyiv Sunday to demand more rights and highlight their service to their country in its war with Russia.

They argue that an improvement in gay rights would create a further distinction between Ukraine and Russia, where LGBTQ rights are severely restricted.

Staff from the U.S. Embassy and several European embassies attended the pride rally.

Interesting.

Seems they're getting quite a bit of resistance from the Ukrainian people and institutions.

Not so much from the US & US Media.

They should get worse that mere resistance should they not be able to control themselves.

More rights to do what? “More rights” doesn’t mean anything without any context.

Their internal affairs concerning how they run their government and promote their laws are not our part there. We should stay out of it and show nothing that could be recognized as a approving nor disapproving of concerns within their government. Others like it are racial disperity, religion, their financial laws, anything directly attached to their government internally. It is none of our business. And allowing staff from the embassy to attend the rally representing the embassy, should not have been allowed. Of course, if they didn’t attend representing the US embassy, then it can’t be helped. But they could have been reminded of their responsibility and their committment to not get involved with internal government decision by the possible recognition of a display of approval by attending.

When watching translated combat videos from both the Ukraine and Russian sides, when referring to the enemy, its always “the faggots did this,” or “the faggots attacked us...”

It seems to be a firmly fixed habit in their everyday speech and slang

Maybe these perverted cowards should be on the front lines instead of primping around at queer rallies in Kiev.
