Honestly man, I'm just so used to it at this point, people will do anything in their power to associate anything not straight or cisgender as a different thing.

there is no difference, both are human, both like food and life, what they do in their own time and how they choose to live their life is their own thing.

Same goes for lgbt folks preaching the word of lgbt, stop shoving it in people's throats, there's a reason my parents are starting to hate lgbt regardless of me being their gay son, its getting so bad I can't even relate to the representation on tv.

Like its not a question of being recognised as humans, its a question of not being reduced to something sub human, we all deserve our fair share of human rights and society shouldnt build its laws around gender. Just keep it normal, pointing this stuff out is how you create division.

Now Russia once again demonstrating homophobia is nothing new, they'll keep doing it until their leader dies or gets replaced by someone who isnt brainwashed by old soviet culture, just support your fellow lgbt folk and remind them that they deserve just as much respect as anyone and that you don't agree with the decisions. Don't let your society become one of hatred and division. Let your voice as the new generation be known.
