I took a break to start working on a new book~Yay~ but in my time away I've come across several terrifying and disturbing things. One of which is Scott Lively and Linda Harvey's latest claims and denouncing of anti-gay hate crimes in Russia.
"Harvey said that anti-gay violence in Russia has nothing to do with the country’s anti-gay laws, while Lively explained that actually the only violence occurring is “gay-on-gay crime.”http://www.lgbtqnation.com/2013/11/anti-gay-activist-scott-lively-gay-people-are-behind-anti-gay-violence-in-russia/
“Russia does have nationalists, these are Nazis, the same as I wrote in the book ‘The Pink Swastika: Homosexuality and the Nazi Party,’ that’s the same thing,” Lively said. “The guys that are beating up gays in Russia—and it’s not any more prevalent than it ever has been really and it isn’t all that prevalent at all—but the ones that are doing it are butch homosexuals who are beating up effeminate homosexuals, the same thing that happened in Germany; this is gay-on-gay crime, at least that is what it appears to be.”"
Not only did they make the comparison of homosexuals to Nazis, but claimed the radical anti-gay groups, including Neo Nazis in Russia are "gay" and that the hate crimes they're committing are no more common now than they were prior to the law changes in Russia. Meanwhile hundreds of crimes are being committed each day against the LGBTQ community. Lynchings, beatings, rapes, vandalism, and so on. Since the laws passed the number of hate crimes have skyrocketed. The Guardian reported on this recently (read here: http://www.theguardian.com/world/2013/sep/01/russia-rise-homophobic-violence)
The fact is that these fearmongering twats are trying to play down the violence and inhumane treatment of gays in Russia while at the same time trying to equate gays to Nazis to further their agenda of homosexualitymisia.
They disgust me.
