Generic Russian businesses love Putin. Multinational corporations and international bankers hate Putin. Who has more money to run hate propaganda. … Very few people actually look behind the issues of why a top class spy actually does what he does. Even if the whole KGB were gay, they would still do what they are doing for the community.. What should be shocking to everyone is how quickly people swallow propaganda and spurt it out as fast as those Multinationals can churn it. I doubt Putin is homophobic, he’s probably not afraid of anything.

Hate is just another word like freedom,racism and corruption that have been twisted and overused so much by our society that they are essentially meaningless and their usage in mainstream society should always be analyzed to find their true intent rather than automatically associating it the lowermost level of interpretion to fit in to the agenda to fulfill a justification for action.

@Antonyourknee  
HATE is still a pretty strong word and shouldnt be used so casually.

@StarrySkies  
What recent events do you mean exactly?

@StarrySkies  
Don’t worry the way the world is going now,global society will soon collapse from climate change,overpopulation,famine,destabilizing warfare,and of course the ever constant human hedonistic stupidly that currently plagues our stupid,drug consuming,sex crazed ass culture.When that happens no one will care what you are as long as you can find food and help fight off the other tribes.

I was born and raised in Russia before some problems came up and I ended up moving to the US. I’m still a proud Russian, I’m rooting for Russia in the Olympics.  
But I can’t help be saddened what my country is turning into.  
Please don’t blame Russia in general.  
Blame Putin and our government.  
Putin is showing age, he use to be my personal hero but now he’s growing insane. Before all this happened we were pretty open and cool with homosexuality, I don’t even recall meeting or hearing about homophobia back when I lived there, it took my by shock hearing the recent events.  
My only hopes is that as Russia gets older, the opening minded younger generation will get into politics..

He hates their organization for associating a once childlike symbol of wonder and natural beauty into a political message,he himself has nothing against the people.After all you may disagree with the U.S. Governments actions but does mean you hate every american?

“I HATE LGBT for them took our rainbow”  
Reminder that’s that what you agree with

@Background Pony #53EE  
Or anyone who dares to disagree with our ideas correct.

@Background Pony #A13F  
Such as idiocy

@Background Pony #53EE  
The truth can silence anyone right.

@Background Pony #6DB1  
(shell-shocked silence)

Guys, rainbow is just a rainbow, you know? Just a natural phenomenon. Very beautiful sight, that existed billion years before the first gay was even born.
 
I’m not a homophobe but I HATE LGBT for them took our rainbow. Please, stop associating it with them.

@Background Pony #A938  
Well Russia is their own country with their culture and beside your all overlooking one single fact….Russia is RUSSIA,that right there should give all the information you need, especially if you know Russian history

Sorry,dash. Russia has a strict anti-lesbian policy

In russia rainbows aren’t exactly associated with lgbt anyway. It’s just russia doesn’t believe in bright colors.

Now whith 20 less percent homophobia

“Because everything is better with Rainbows.  
Russia. Be better.”

Finally, a picture with the top right ring actually normal.
