Russia's Supreme Court effectively outlaws LGBTQ+ activism in a landmark ruling – Oneida Dispatch

Russia’s Supreme Court has effectively outlawed LGBTQ+ activism, in the most drastic step against advocates of gay, lesbian and transgender rights in the increasingly conservative country. Ruling Thursday in response to a lawsuit filed by the Justice Ministry, the court labeled what it called the LGBTQ+ “movement” operating in Russia as an extremist organization, and banned it. The ruling is the latest step in a crackdown on LGBTQ+ rights in Russia under President Vladimir Putin. The Justice Ministry brought the lawsuit, arguing that authorities had identified “signs and manifestations of an extremist nature” by an LGBTQ+ movement in Russia that incited "social and religious discord,” although it offered no details. Amnesty International called the ruling “shameful and absurd.”
