Russian activist faces third set of ‘gay propaganda’ charges for the simple crime of drawing happy queer families

A Russian LGBT+ activist and artist is facing “gay propaganda” charges for the third time in less than a year after posting a picture of happy queer families. Yulia Tsvetkova has revealed that she is facing “gay propaganda” charges for a third time for sharing materials to support rainbow families in response to pro-Putin viral campaign ads denouncing the LGBT+ community. (…) According to Meduza, authorities in the city of Komsomolsk-on-Amur are investigating Tsvetkova after she posted a drawing which included the phrase: “A family is where there is love. Support LGBT+ families!” She later posted another picture, which showed various queer families raising children.
