yes, i didn’t say that wasn’t true, what i’m saying is that, if something changes, if the opportunity ever comes to improve things, a state of war is going to impede any progress when there’s potential for change
Sure, I completely agree that the war isn’t going to help things. However, the article disingenuously implies that the state of things in Russia regarding lgbt rights is somehow worse than it was in Ukraine before the war. That’s simply not the case. Both Russia and Ukraine are extremely homophobic.
Ukraine has been suppressing lgbt rights long before it was in a state of war, and the far right regime in Ukraine certainly wasn’t championing any of these rights either https://www.atlanticcouncil.org/blogs/ukrainealert/lgbtq-rights-in-ukraine-and-the-false-dawn-of-zelenskyy/
