The latest anti-#LGBTQ laws out of #Russia are very disappointing.

We take solice in a few things, namely:

a) the #blackMarket in Russia is reportedly huge, and
b) the fastest way to make something popular is to forbid it.

@dsfgs I'm not surprised. Unless the government change and Putin is out of power, it's gonna be worse for LGBT+ Russians

@Dragonholley
It not just Putin, the society appears to be more #sociallyConservative, maybe because there are three religions vying to balance each other out in the country.

Over 300 lawmakers in the country voted unanimously and without debate to enact painful fines for LGBTQ in #legacyMedia (not #videogames, interestingly).

Ukraine is apparently very #conservative too, although they do seem to be signalling to the #westernBloc that they are not.
