“Russia arrests sky following rain shower for displaying ‘extremist’ rainbow.”
I’m not sorry, but if colors offend you, you might be really fragile and not as manly as you’d like to think
And if you use religion as an excuse to be a bigot remember your god made everyone and everything so hating colors kinda like saying you’re afraid of your own gods creations.
That’s not what is going on there. Unfortunately for Russian LGBT community, LGPT suppression is selected as anti Western anti democracy propaganda point. People are brainwashed into believing that it is something evil.
Prejudices against the LGBT community are already present in so many people that you don’t need brainwashing. Instead, this is about leveraging and amplifying the existing prejudice for political purposes.

Texas taking notes
Can’t have their residents learning to read and write, they might get ideas.
Ah Russia you keep teaching me not to go to you or the deep south/midwest US. At least I won’t go to jail or get shot on the street in Canada or the EU for being LGBTQ+
This joke of a country has turned into a massive gulag. Next thing they will arrest every man who doesn’t get hard enough seeing the exposed ankle of a woman.
They need conscripts
Shithole country. Also, Putin is 100% smoking pole.
I can hear Poles being offended
Where all the tankies at? Lets hear why this is totally cool and ok.
I think lemmy.world defederated from hexbear, lemmygrad, and .ml
As if Russia is anything else than a dictatorship…

As if tankies aren’t constantly simping for both Russia and China on here.
A little history refresher on the origin of the term
The term “tankie” was originally used by dissident Marxist–Leninists to describe members of the Communist Party of Great Britain (CPGB) who followed the party line of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (CPSU). Specifically, it was used to distinguish party members who spoke out in defense of the Soviet use of tanks to crush the Hungarian Revolution of 1956 and the 1968 Prague Spring uprising, or who more broadly adhered to pro-Soviet positions.
So specifically being a tankie and supporting fascist bullshit go hand in hand and always have.
I must admit that I haven’t met any who do so can’t argue for or against this. I can understand that they might have done 20-30 years ago but I don’t see them “simpling for” any of them really. But neither Russia or China are kommunist regimes any longer. Maybe back when the term was coined, as you described in your quote but not any longer. Before it dead the community now it is the leader
Well I sure have. Especially before multiple servers defederated with Lemmygrad and Hexbear.
I’m just waiting on all the Hexbear users who see no irony praising both LGBTQ+ and russia.
If they ever moved to russia, they would instantly be killed.
