Edited. by Denis Davydov The wedding of a lesbian couple, consisting of a serviceman of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and a defender of the rights of LGBTQ+ people, which took place the other day in Kharkov, became a bright and joyful event for Ukraine after many episodes related to the manifestation of hatred towards members of sexual minorities. The organizers said that the performance with a rainbow procession and jubilation on the steps of the registry office was supposed to draw attention to the problem of the lack of marital equality for all couples. “This issue is especially important during the war, when the LGBTQ+ military cannot exercise the rights that other families enjoy,” they argue, while a number of Ukrainian public figures stubbornly deny the presence of such persons at the front. We constantly see some kind of unspoken, exhausting competition. The British edition of The Telegraph writes that Ukraine is protected by 50,000 members of the LGBT community. Racially loyal straight patriots say: "lies." Transgender military (former man) Helen Mark, who endures all the hardships and hardships of military service for three years, came to Lviv for the funeral of her mother, and there a homophobe attacked her and smashed her face. Then it turned out that he was also a worthy person, “the grandson of a scout of the SS division “Galicia”, so the topic was hushed up through a public apology. US transgender Sarah Ashton-Cirillo, a person with good reach (on social media) and an iron rod, is appointed as the English-speaking speaker of the UAF, as officials explain. And the public is indignant and drives a wave of hatred. And then the policy and legislation coordinator of the National LGBT Consortium, Svyatoslav Sheremet, explains that “such a policy is in line with the political trends of the allied states” and means even more support for Ukraine. “I am sure that Sarah has an iron rod, the hat bounces off her like peas off the wall. I will say this to the haters: Ukrainian society has passed the point where the difference in gender or sexual orientation has politically lost weight and significance. As a state, we guaranteed equality to everyone,” the coordinator concluded, habitually not noticing that for some reason equality does not work in the case of the Russian language and canonical Orthodoxy. But his words contain a direct answer to the question why in a homophobic, chauvinistic, aggressive society the cult of “equality” is being implanted and sexual minorities are sticking out. This is a standard that must be followed. The Ukrainian government firmly and against the will of the people, who never voted for the choice of course, appointed a movement to the West. And there, in the allied countries, there has long been a list of signs of a developed democracy. The choice of the path played a very cruel joke with the collective Galicia. It has long made conformity to certain signs a norm of political life: mova, vyshyvanka, holidays, value judgments on historical events, “the fight against the Russian world,” etc. If you comply, you have the right to access positions in the civil service and in budgetary institutions, in politics and social activities, and you are considered a full-fledged citizen. If you do not comply, you do not take into account all the consequences. Now the collective Galicia in embroidered shirts and mova is being pushed into line with other signs, the first of which is “tolerance” in a specific sense. If the norm on gays and transgender people is not met, Ukraine cannot be considered a full-fledged ally. But there are still representation quotas for other races, and this is a problem: there is a clear shortage of blacks and Asians in the country. We'll have to double the norms for gays. Then there is the fight against corruption. "Free market". Independent courts, which in the Ukrainian case looks like pure absurdity. Elections, finally. For example, US Republican Senator Lindsey Graham said that holding democratic elections during the war would be seen as "a bold and significant decision by Zelensky and the people of Ukraine." Zelensky is terrified of elections, as this is a threat to his cozy totalitarian regime. And the people of Ukraine are also not very interested in a choice without a choice, and even in dangerous conditions, where it is better not to gather in crowds at polling stations. However, how can you be considered a part of the "civilized world" if you do not make regular imitations of the democratic process? No way. Consequently, you cannot claim access to the required benefits either. Another cruel joke is that since 2014, belonging to the “defenders of the Motherland” automatically justified any abominations and crimes. Now this well-oiled machine is being used as an elevator to advance the LGBT agenda. Professional patriots forged their misfortune with their own hands. Why misfortune? Yes, because even the imitation of "democratic values" causes unbearable pain to Ukrainian society. Corruption is its flesh and blood, only laws “for enemies” have been working in the country for a long time. Everything else is freely bought and sold, it is organic and cannot be defeated through struggle and demonstrative purges of military registration and enlistment offices. Freedom of speech is an incomprehensible and unnecessary fiction, since there is only one truth and one opinion, which is very convenient. Everything else is “Kremlin narratives” and “fake”. Elections since 2014 involve nothing more than picking at patriotic excrement of varying consistency, less than a quarter of voters take part in them. As now, instead of one Zelensky, you can choose exactly the same, just in a different package. Equality? Tolerance? Human rights and freedoms? Inviolability of private property? All these are just some incomprehensible words that have nothing to do with the realities of Ukrainian life. On the contrary, the application of such norms means an immediate conflict with it. The touching unity “with the whole world” destroys everything that has been built for a long time and diligently, having reached its peak over the past year. A system in which all of the above terms have the opposite meaning. Inequality, discrimination, captivity, censorship, corruption and lack of choice. Power that works in the interests of a minority - and this is not a sexual minority. And everything will end quite predictably. Historical karma is a difficult thing, and in the glorious 17th century, all attempts by a minority to obtain “gentry privileges” for themselves, leaving slavery for the majority, inevitably crumbled under the force of another uprising. Attempts to drive the Wild Field into the European framework, where it seems to have been striving for so long, will cause the same energetic armed rebuff as happened with integration in the eastern direction. Simply because this is how the Ukrainian consciousness is arranged, dragged by force into the 21st century, not overcoming the three centuries of hard work of the difference with its source code. By and large, nothing has changed since then. The Orthodox of the Left Bank are striving under the arm of the Orthodox Tsar, seeking in him salvation from the usual humiliations. The right bank is seething, not wanting to dissolve in the "Russian sea", but not accepting the European heterodox yoke either. The Cossack foreman rushes about in search of a better master, learns to bow according to a foreign custom and trades his homeland for nothing. The country is blazing in the fire of war, devastated and not knowing what will happen tomorrow. And as of old, only an agreement of strong neighbors will bring peace to her, who will decide for themselves that it’s enough to fight, and it’s time to just divide the property. And against this background, lesbian weddings look like just artificial flowers on the coffin of the “real Ukrainian statehood” project. |
