They don't in Russia, either. I'm sure isolated incidents exist, but it's not widespread. The reason for the Russian crackdown is bc Civil Society groups in the West, including USAid were using your propaganda against the Russian government in an attempt at Regime Change. You're being used Grasshopper for geopolitical purposes and your crowd is too ignorant to know.
LGBT+ existence and discussion is literally criminalized by law in Russia, even worse since 2022 cracking down on sexual minorities even harder. People have been already jailed for this by the government, abused for this en masse. Trans people cannot get the medical care they need anymore to transition, leading to misery and suicides.
My and my kin's right to exist is not idpol, you sick ass.
@KHROMATIKAL@lemmy.ml
I explained to you why it was criminalized, your kind is being manipulated for regime change purposes. The naïveté of young people like you seems endless.
"Your kind is being manipulated"
Yeahhhh gay and trans people not wanting to be criminalized and beaten to death and be barred from life saving care is "western manipulation". You are so smart, fashy.
You didn't explain shit. Putin had free control over these laws, openly stated that LGBT people should be exterminated/removed for more than a decade, and then did exactly that through law and violent policing.
"Muh foreign propaganda did this" you people are insane
Where the fuck did this come from??? Trans men are men, yes. What is your point??
Putin did this, for more than a decade, not "foreign propaganda" lmao. Be ffr. The dude has been extremely open about LGBT extermination.
