Russia is actually tolerant of people with non-traditional sexual orientations, so long as they don’t target children or flaunt their preferences, President Vladimir Putin said on Tuesday.
The president made the remarks while addressing visitors to the ‘Strong Ideas for a New Time’ forum, a yearly event organized by Russia’s state-backed Agency of Strategic Initiatives.
“We are quite tolerant towards people with non-traditional sexual orientations. We just don’t flaunt it, and we don’t believe it’s right to flaunt it. Let everyone live – the adults – as they want. Nobody limits them in anything,” Putin stated, explaining that, basically, there are only a handful of rules which limit the LGBTQ community in the country.
As for children, I have already said many times: ‘Don’t touch the children.’ That’s it. This is the first one. And the second one is, we are, first and foremost, a state that is guided by traditional values.
Over the past few years, Russia has gradually tightened its legislation aimed at countering the spread of what it calls “LGBT ideology.” The drive began in 2013, when the dissemination of said propaganda was outlawed among minors.
The ban was reinforced in December 2022, when new legislation introduced major fines for anyone found guilty of promoting “non-traditional sexual relations,” pedophilia, and transgenderism among minors and adults alike.
Late last year, the Supreme Court of Russia outlawed the “international LGBT public movement,” designating it as extremist. The ban stemmed from a lawsuit filed by the Russian Justice Ministry, which asked the top court to do so, arguing that the movement has been involved in “incitements of social and religious discord” as well as exhibiting unspecified “extremist traits.”
The extremist designation has been harshly criticized by multiple rights groups in the West, which have argued that it is “absurd” and vague, and that it has had a “catastrophic” effect on the LGBTQ community in Russia. The inclusion of any group in Russia’s “extremist organizations” list effectively bans all of their activities and outlaws all of their associated symbols.

"The biggest achievement of the devil was to convince the world that he does not exist."
Infiltration, not invasion.
Far too many Americans, Europeans, Canadians and Australians are unaware that the LGBTQI is simply one column of the march of cultural Marxism, and has one purpose only: to destroy the foundation of the West, which is God and Family.
Everything else is window dressing.

Isn't that a line from "Usual Suspects"?
Or is it actually biblical?
It's not biblical in the sense that it is found anywhere in scripture.
Not sure about the Usual Suspects.
I would say that its simply a truism that has emerged in the context of Marxism and the Communist Manifesto, wherein the devil promulgated a philosophy that itself denies the existence of God and therefor Satan as the basis for ushering in the most satanic system of thought and control in history.
Did you watch the video? I think its worthwhile.
Which video?
The rumble link I posted for you.
Did you not realize that this is a video? There are about 17 videos that I think are on my "must not miss" list, including of course Patriot Joe's "The Plan".
But this one, which has been routinely removed, reposted, removed, reposted to youtube is also one. If you understand the content, it sheds a LOT of light on the entire cultural war situation, its origins, and directions.
