Ukrainians didn't "hold their pride march in a subway".

10 minutes after the 2024 Kyiv pride march started the marchers were dispersed and ordered onto trains by police in response to a large and violent right wing counter demonstration. The Ukrainian right has organised violent counter demonstrations every year since it's inception in 2012. They regularly prematurely end the march and have hospitalised dozens of marchers.

Violent crimes against queer people are not legally considered hate crimes in Ukraine. The punishment for assaulting a queer person is often just a small (less than 100 Euro) fine. The main goal of Kyiv pride is to change this.

"russian bombs" did not cause this, but they haven't helped. There are very few safe places for internally displaced LGBTQ+ people, especially those from Kharkiv and Donbass. They find it harder to find shelter and work than other IDPs, and are subject to heightened rates of physical and sexual violence.

A take so hot it got three separate drama posts on hexbear

You know what would be even cooler? If those pride marches could happen in the open without bombs falling from the sky because the fascist regime will sacrifice anything and anyone to please NATO.

But that's just some cringe shit those tankies with the Lenin profile pics post, let's continue ignoring it and hopefully all of Europe will be sending their kids to die fighting Russia

I saw this and finally unsubscribed from me_irlgbt. It ain’t the fascist regimes shelling that are the problem, no it’s those pesky tankies

Folks I'm confused. Am I supposed to be protesting the widespread systemic issues that keep the lgbtqia+ community oppressed or am I supposed to be protesting the people who point those systems out

Last pride parade in Kiev lasted 10 minutes because organisers decided to dissolve it when they saw nazis gathering under police protection against them. So yeah, Ukrainian LGBT quite possibly do now have to gather literally underground but not because what this nazi bootlicker said.

Estonian. Opinion discarded

lol not all of ukraine is a warzone, if they're doing it underground it's because they fear their fascist regime 😂

Gotta be underground because forcing them back in the closet would be too on the nose?

These people really are convinced that the only reason the US hasn't smoked Putin is because some MLs on Twitter with no political power aren't sucking Zelensky's D enough.

The biggest danger for queer Ukrainians is being rounded up and conscripted into the death machine

The tankies with Lenin pfps have refused to endorse either nazis of Palestinian genocide, whereas the people making these posts have embraced both

That's the crazy part. Without labor not a single gear will turn. So no, there is no state stronger than an organized proletariat.
