Police raid Moscow gay bars after a Supreme Court ruling labeled LGBTQ+ movement ‘extremist’
Russian security forces have raided gay clubs and bars across Moscow less than 48 hours after the country’s top court banned what it called the “global LGBTQ+ movement” as an extremist organization.
Russian security forces raided gay clubs and bars across Moscow Friday night, less than 48 hours after the country’s top court banned what it called the “global LGBTQ+ movement” as an extremist organization.
Police searched venues across the Russian capital, including a nightclub, a male sauna, and a bar that hosted LGBTQ+ parties, under the pretext of a drug raid, local media reported.
Eyewitnesses told journalists that clubgoers’ documents were checked and photographed by the security services. They also said that managers had been able to warn patrons before police arrived.
You're viewing part of a thread.
Most countries aren't fighting in an existential war either, sometimes one must take the allies they can get. You seem to be implying that Azov's existence means something about Ukrainian national policy though, which is totally wrong. Zelensky is Jewish, and as others have pointed out to you Azov is shrinking and its members being integrated into other units:
The regiment's size was estimated to be around 2,500 combatants in 2017, and around 900 in 2022
sometimes one must take the allies they can get.
it's one thing to send them to the front lines with slingshots, it's another entirely to let them poison your own ranks.
You don't murder your own troops in war, even if you don't like them, I shouldn't have to tell you this holy shit
You totally have the Russian mindset
I just hate Nazis.
And you're objectively stupid. At least on this issue. Hatred can do strange things.
