Russia's lower house of parliament has unanimously voted to extend its ban on so-called "gay propaganda".

Under the latest version of the law, any promotion of homosexuality - including in books, films and online - is illegal and carries heavy penalties.

It was nicknamed the "Answer to Blinken" law, after the US Secretary of State Antony Blinken criticised it as a "blow to freedom of expression".

Florida Man demagogue DeSantis is launching his presidential ambitions on similar anti LGBT scapegoating. Just like Putin he starts with schools but be clear if that lot gets enough power, they will be copying Putin. Another thing the American fascists have copied from the Russian fascists -- falsely conflating LGBT with child abuse. Their blanket "groomer" attacks are politically brilliant propaganda but have nothing to do with truth fairness or reality.
