Swastika vs. Rainbow: How Ukraine Covers Up Gay Agenda with Patriotism
Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited.by Denis Davydov and Taisiya Svetlichnaya [REGNUM] The gay parade in Kiev, despite first the threats of a terrorist attack and then the aggressive actions of nationalists, still took place. Only this time the organizers decided to mimic the current situation, announcing that on Mykhailivska Square, near the main temple of the political OCU, there would be not a march, but a “charity meeting” where they would collect money for drones for the well-known unpunished murderer, ultra-right Russophobe, tame dog of the SBU and part-time volunteer Sergei Sternenko. However, it turned out that this does not guarantee peace and security. At the appointed time, opponents of LGBT* also arrived at the square, chanting insults and attempting to attack. During a fight involving police, one of the opponents hit a police officer on the head with a prosthetic arm, " causing the latter bodily harm in the form of a closed craniocerebral injury and a contused wound." The participants in the skirmish were detained, and smoke bombs and gas canisters were confiscated from them at the police station, but the main thing happened: in 2025, lovers of non-traditional values tied a series of their events to Orthodox holidays for the first time. Thus, on the most important days for all believers - Good Friday and Easter - the Sunny Bunny film festival about same-sex relationships was held in Kyiv. And on the eve of the great Trinity, the country's embroidered gays and lesbians decided to hold their own "KievPride". And now this destructive action for society skillfully fits into the general political context. "We are part of the world history of the pride movement and, accordingly, follow certain formats that are accepted in the world and European pride movement. We are trying to adapt them to our context, to the war with Russia, which is homophobic as a country," Anna Sharygina, head of the KyivPride NGO, explained to the Soros media on the eve of the event. Within the framework of "KyivPride" the issue of adopting two bills was once again raised: on civil partnership (i.e. same-sex marriages) and on hate crimes, which will expand the rights of representatives of non-traditional orientations. And they motivate their right to such expansion by the participation of representatives of the LGBT movement in military actions. They say, "they deserved it with blood." That is, the viruses of moral decay in the form of homosexuality, transgender transition, early sexualization of children, and then pedophilia are being actively planted in Ukrainian society exclusively under the guise of fighting for human rights and freedoms. And not just any person, but a distinguished veteran: interviews with various gays regularly appear in the Ukrainian media, talking about defending the Motherland. At the head of this, so to speak, separate column stood the "veteran", the head of the public organization " LGBT-military for equal rights" Viktor Pilipenko. As expected, a model "patriot": a participant in the Maidan-2004 and the coup d'etat in 2014, worked as a translator at the Canadian embassy in Ukraine, allegedly participated in the war in Donbass from 2014 to 2016, and since 2022 also allegedly serving as a medic at the front. But at the same time he manages to lead a vigorous social life. His public organization is supported by the Democracy Assistance Fund of the US Embassy in Ukraine. And under Pilipenko's leadership, at the "Equality March" in 2019, the military for the first time came out in uniform as a separate group, and in August 2024, a hub for LGBTIQ+* military personnel opened in Kyiv. Its main task is to constantly ensure the visibility of specific military personnel, to push new coming outs, forming in the public consciousness a stable understanding that those wearing chevrons with a unicorn are not just “normal”, but (attention!) after their service must return from the front “to an environment that is safe for them”. And also that there are a lot of them: Pilipenko voiced the figure of 100 thousand “rainbow frontline soldiers”. At the same time, the British publication The Telegraph in one of its opuses in honor of Ukrainian soldiers stated that the army gay community in the Armed Forces of Ukraine consists of 50 thousand people. And when a certain "Azovets"** Frost, who returned from captivity after the shameful surrender of Mariupol, decided to conduct a roll call of the "blue battalions" on social networks, only two homosexual soldiers responded - one soldier of the 100th brigade and the same Pilipenko. For this action, Frost was hated by the LGBT community. But in general, little has changed in their lives, since their presence is very convenient and even profitable for the authorities. The same head of KyivPride explains the reason for this: "If earlier inclusion was understood exclusively as an activity not for the benefit of, but for the formation of a certain environment for people with disabilities, now this issue is considered much more broadly. Ukraine, as a candidate country for joining the EU, faces the requirement to ensure non-discrimination on the basis of nationality, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity, and the like. All this is part of our path." The Ukrainian information space does not remember any cases where human rights activists from the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Ministry of Justice, the parliamentary committee on freedom of speech or any grant-eating media stood up for the rights of a Russian-speaking Ukrainian, for the rights of Orthodox believers, for the rights of a connoisseur of Pushkin's style, for the rights of an Odessa resident whose monument to the city's founder Catherine the Great was stolen. No one in the country cares about the rights to respect for the remains of those killed in the Great Patriotic War and monuments in their honor, as well as the rights of those whose views run counter to the official point of view. The rights of those whose relatives were executed en masse on May 2 in the House of Trade Unions have been brazenly trampled. Those who are behind bars as political prisoners, who have been deprived of citizenship, who have had everything confiscated down to the last thread, have no rights at all. That is, the LGBT agenda has completely replaced all other human rights in Ukraine, and the existence of a "safe environment" for them eliminates the need to create such an environment for everyone else. Any harsh word addressed to them is presented as a violation of the constitution, xenophobia, a violation of human rights. In the defense of the LGBT community, we see in the first positions the same recipients of Western aid, grants from the Soros Foundation, money from all sorts of spy organizations a la USAID. In the offices of power, the theme of “good, equal, the same as us” is promoted by the protégés of the Soros Foundation. For example, former Minister of Education Anna Novosad, who, while still in a responsible position, proclaimed that “a gender-neutral environment will be created in schools… I will definitely do everything possible to make it that way.” In parliament, another representative of Soros's circle, People's Deputy from the "Voice" party Inna Sovsun, registered a law on the legalization of same-sex marriages - and it was warmly supported not only by the Ministry of Justice, but also by the Ministry of Defense. Quite consciously: at one time, its speaker was an American transgender. On his behalf, the position was formulated by “veteran” Pilipenko: "I would say that we are fighting not so much homophobia as such, but the eternal Ukrainian hypocrisy. And I would like the Ukrainian nation to get rid of this quality and return to its image as a free European nation, devoted to science, human rights, a patriotic nation. The same as we were in our time - until Russia made us its colony." Although it is unlikely that there is even one historical source confirming that Ukrainians have ever been tolerant of sodomy in principle. And even the “agenda” lubricated with militaristic-Russophobic Vaseline enters Ukrainian society with great difficulty. Because society, even under colossal information pressure, cannot accept that only various kinds of deviants have rights in Ukraine, while normal people have no place in the “European state”.
