MOSCOW, Nov 30 (Reuters) - Russia’s Supreme Court ruled on Thursday that LGBT activists should be designated as extremists, in a move that representatives of gay and transgender people fear will lead to arrests and prosecutions.

A Reuters reporter in court heard it announce that it had approved a request from the justice ministry to recognise what it called “the international LGBT social movement” as extremist and to ban its activities.

    Yeah, no.

    As an anarchist, it’s just authoritarianism.

    Fuck your hierarchies and top-down systems of oppression. Fuck supporting genocidal dictators.

    Go read the conquest of bread and liberate yourself.

      If you do not understand that there is a need for some authorities, you are both fucking stupid and a terrible anarchist.

      Do better. Anarchy is about identifying what authority must exist and in what form it would best exist. If your answer is, “all authority is bad.” Then you have failed. Try again.
