Russia’s lower-house State Duma has passed a bill banning “propaganda of non traditional relationships” + of “gender changes and pedophilia” toward any age group, not just minors as before.
Activists and LGBT Russians say it will silence public LGBT expression once it’s law https://t.co/NwXLWUz8yv

Finally.
For too long, Russia was allowing faggots to run buckwild – just as long as they didn’t touch kids (“homos who don’t touch kids” is an oxymoron, by the way).
Putin had been calling for stricter anti-faggot laws for a long time, and it’s fantastic he finally got them.
Russia’s parliament on Thursday passed the third and final reading of a law that expands an existing ban on promoting “LGBT propaganda” to children by banning it among people of all ages.
Under the new law any event or act regarded as an attempt to promote homosexuality – including online, in film, books, advertising or in public – could incur a heavy fine.
The fine will be up to 400,000 roubles ($6,600) for individuals and up to 5 million roubles ($82,100) for legal entities. Foreigners could face 15 days of arrest and subsequent expulsion from the country.
Critics see the move as an attempt to further intimidate and oppress sexual minorities in Russia, where authorities have already used existing laws to stop gay pride marches and detain gay rights activists.
Lawmakers say they are defending morality in the face of what they argue are “un-Russian” decadent values promoted by the West. But human rights groups say the moves are designed to outlaw representation of minorities such as lesbians, gay men, bisexuals and transgender people (LGBT) in public life.
“LGBT today is an element of hybrid warfare and in this hybrid warfare we must protect our values, our society and our children,” Alexander Khinstein, one of the bill’s architects, said last month.
That’s very obviously what it is. It’s a culture war program to create a fifth column in so-called enemy countries.
No faggot is not going to support the United States, and they will actually go out and fight for it. Whether or not US faggot propaganda actually creates faggots or just liberates them is irrelevant – if they’re afraid to come out of the closet then they’re also going to be afraid to show up at demonstrations in support of the United States.
It’s just really great that Russia is becoming a much more serious Christian theocracy, instead of this amalgam that it’s been since the 1990s.
This is why Russia deserves support against anti-christ Western @NATO forces and their puppets in Ukraine. No country should allow anti-christ propaganda in their lands. People must resist no matter how beautiful the fake news propaganda media makes you think Satanism is

Faggots are a cruel plague on any society.
These people belong in jail.
