Summary
Andrei Kotov, a Russian travel agency director accused of organizing LGBTQ+ tours, died in pre-trial detention in Moscow.
Authorities claim his death was a suicide, but rights groups highlight previous reports of beatings and abuse during his arrest.
Kotov was charged with “extremist activities” after Russia banned the LGBTQ+ movement as extremist in 2023, intensifying its crackdown on LGBTQ+ rights.
He denied organizing specific LGBTQ+ events, calling them ordinary tours.
His death has raised concerns about the treatment of detainees and the broader suppression of dissent in Russia.
Omfg cope the USA has done as much if not more damage to the world then all of those you mentioned. Any coagulation of power is a structure for corruption to take place. This exists in every state. Denying that is childish.
I suggest you read some theory, comrade. You’re misguided and Che would be disappointed in you.
You’re expecting a .ml user to read?
Oh that explains it
If that’s the case, why are you participating in this moderated forum controlled by other people? Surely you’re just feeding their inevitable corruption.
Ahahahaha, I typed up this whole reply but realized their was no point in having a good faith discussion with someone this delusional. So I’m just going to thank you for the laugh.
