MOSCOW, Nov 30 (Reuters) - Russia’s Supreme Court ruled on Thursday that LGBT activists should be designated as extremists, in a move that representatives of gay and transgender people fear will lead to arrests and prosecutions.
A Reuters reporter in court heard it announce that it had approved a request from the justice ministry to recognise what it called “the international LGBT social movement” as extremist and to ban its activities.
This is why I cannot consider the so-called leftists who oppose taking action against a fascist like Putin to be actual leftists. Putin is a hard right dictator who violates every principle of human rights at every turn.
Tankies are authoritarians, the left/right angle doesn’t matter there.

Yeah, no.
As an anarchist, it’s just authoritarianism.
Fuck your hierarchies and top-down systems of oppression. Fuck supporting genocidal dictators.
Go read the conquest of bread and liberate yourself.
They went so far authoritarian left, they ended up authoritarian right.
