"We're all gray." A Penza resident saw LGBT propaganda in a street ad against extremism.
A billboard was erected near the city center. It depicts colorful figures of people holding flags and the inscription: "We are different, but we are united: we are against extremism."
A resident of Penza Vyacheslav Lyagin saw LGBT propaganda in the image.
«People painted in rainbow colors really smacks of the LGBT community.», - wrote he's on the governor's page Oleg Melnichenko On VKontakte, under a post about the Penza region being a multinational region and a crossroads of cultures.
On the same day, the Penza Advertising Service explained that "the color image of a group of people holding flags, also of varying colors, symbolizes the unity of society and is consistent with anti-extremist policies."
A post about another complaint about rainbow colors from readers of the local public group "PenzaInform" commented sarcastically:
«"Where can I buy monochrome glasses so I can leave the house safely?", "We're all gray, we're all together, we're rats!", "There are so many... [like] people around here. But what's scary is that they all live next door and you can expect anything from them."
Let us recall that over the past year, as part of the fight against propaganda of LGBT people fined for profiles on dating sites, they cancelled concerts, spectacles and children's productions, banned books and art objects, changed names festivals и signboards in stores.
The Barbie doll has become the trend of the last month: on the one hand, it accuse in LGBT propaganda, on the other hand, screenings of pirated versions of the film "Barbie" announced in many regions of the country.
