Russia Moves to Ban ‘International LGBT Movement’ - The Moscow Times
Russia’s Justice Ministry said Friday it has filed a motion for the Supreme Court to ban what it called an “international LGBT public movement” as extremist, a move activists warned would effectively put all LGBT Russians at risk of criminal prosecution.
Aren't all "international movements" of activists "extremist" by definition? The term activist is misused a lot these days but aren't all activists pushing the bounds of the Overton window, going against a legal or natural order trying to change or subvert their cultures? (usually for some grift - in the case of LGBT they want special privileges and attention to indulge their narcissism)
Activist needs to become a dirty word, like journalist.
Might as well just assume any sort of "international" movement or activism to be an anti-national communist movement.
That too.
But I struggle to think of any local or national "activist" causes that aren't the same. I don't consider people actually doing shit for others (building houses, taking care of animals, giving to the homeless) as activists, just the ones screaming for CHANGE. They are either all transparent political movements, agitprop generators for cultural subversion, or grifters.
There are open source activists, who don't.
