LGBT, radical feminism and childfree movements may be considered extremist
Last Wednesday, Andrei Tsyganov, the chairman of the commission for the protection of children from destructive content under the Federal Service for Supervision in the Sphere of Telecom, Information Technologies and Mass Communications, came up with an initiative to recognize several movements as extremist.  Among them, there were radical feminism, LGBT and childfree movements.

The issue was discussed within the framework of the meeting of the Parents' Chamber that took place the day before. More than two hundred people took part in it, among whom there were lawmakers - deputies of the State Duma and regional assemblies, members of the Federation Council, and members of various public organizations, reports TASS.

According to the author of the idea, such a measure will help to protect the younger generation from the destructive information contained on the Internet.

Proposing the idea, Tsyganov noted that the new measure would be able to ‘untie the hands’ of the law enforcement officials, and in particular, the Federal Service for Supervision in the Sphere of Telecom, Information Technologies and Mass Communications.

The social movements in question advocate for different opinions and ideas. The LGBT movement, in particular, advocates for equality in rights, the elimination of discrimination, sexual freedom and tolerance. Childfree ideology assumes a firm intention of people not to have children. At the same time, here we are not talking about a temporary measure or postponing the issue to a later date - the movement presupposes a deliberate rejection of the opportunity to have children.

Radical feminism, in turn, is a kind of feminism, which is characterized by calls for a radical change in society and the eradication of male superiority in both the social and economic spheres.
