Homophobia in Russia
Homophobia in Russia
Again some people who carried LGBT flag were arrested during some football match as far as I know, I saw it on Telegram.
Also, again some laws on banning ''LGBT pRoPaGaNdA'' were signed by government and Putin I think, they won't shut up about it. What is up with this?
fun fact; homosexuality was completely normal in russia up until the
monarchsthe tsar was founded and they tried to westernize the country and introduced anti-homosexuality laws to try to appeal to the west more (they wanted to be more christian)it worked and because of that the church in russia got really fucking rich and infulential, to the point that the ussr could not get rid of it and why it is still a prevelant force in maintaining russias stance on homophobia.
The Austrian royal councilor Sigismund von Herberstein described in his report Rerum Moscoviticarum Commentarii (Notes on Muscovite Affairs) his observations during his travels in Moscow in 1517 and 1526. He stated that homosexuality was prevalent among all social classes.[5][6] The English poet George Turberville who visited Moscow in 1568 when Ivan IV ruled Russia during a bloody phase, was not shocked by the carnage, but about the open homosexuality of the Russian peasants.[7] Adam Olearius also reported that homosexuality among men existed on all levels of society and was not treated as a crime.[8] There are also reports of homosexual relationships between women.
given that homophobia is newer than 'lgbt ideology' which seems to just have been a naturally occuring thing till christians pissed on everyones morality it does make russias stance on this cringe, because it is a christian take for the most part and christianty is cringe as hell.
christ = the west so at the end of the day it is the enternal anglos fault
