Russian security forces raided gay clubs and bars across Moscow Friday night, less than 48 hours after the country’s top court banned what it called the “global LGBTQ+ movement” as an extremist organization.
Police searched venues across the Russian capital, including a nightclub, a male sauna, and a bar that hosted LGBTQ+ parties, under the pretext of a drug raid, local media reported.
Eyewitnesses told journalists that clubgoers’ documents were checked and photographed by the security services. They also said that managers had been able to warn patrons before police arrived.
I was too poor for it to be a option personally, I’m still trying lol. Leaving a country isn’t exactly a easy, straightforward thing.
Unfortunately, I don’t think it’s an option for me to leave at all. But I can set up a “station” for people passing through on their way out.
Exactly my point. Canada is also stupid expensive compared to the US with no good jobs to pay for it.
