Putin: Gay people will be safe at Olympics if they ‘leave kids alone’

MOSCOW — President Vladimir Putin said Friday that gay people have nothing to fear in Russia as long as they leave children alone.

Putin met with a group of volunteers in the Olympic mountain venue at Krasnaya Polyana near Sochi on Friday to wish them success at the Games. During a question-and-answer session, a volunteer asked him about Russia’s attitudes toward gays, a subject that has provoked worldwide controversy, and Putin offered what was apparently meant to be a reassuring answer for visitors to the Olympics.

“One can feel calm and at ease,” he said. “Just leave kids alone, please.”

That phrasing — with its intimation that gays might prey on children — hardly seems the kind of guarantee sought by the United States and other Western governments and human rights activists.

Gay rights have become a contentious issue at the Olympics, which begin Feb. 7, because Russia passed a law last year prohibiting “propaganda of nontraditional sexual practices” among minors. . .

The Frankfurt School made the following 12 recommendations to adanvce its Critical Theory through Cultural Marxism — all of them calculated to undermine the foundations of society and create the dystopia we now see all around us:

 The creation of racism offences and hate speech laws.
 Continual change to create confusion (e,g., in school curricula).
 Masturbation propaganda in schools, combined with the homosexualization of children and their corruption by exposing them to child porn in the classroom.
 The systematic undermining of parental and teachers’ authority.
 Huge immigration to destroy national identity and foment future race wars.
 The systematic promotion of excessive drinking and recreational drugs.
 The systematic promotion of sexual deviance in society.
 An unreliable legal system with bias against the victims of crime.
 Dependency on state benefits.
 Control and dumbing down of media.
 Encouraging the breakdown of the family.
 All all-out attack on Christianity and the emptying of churches.

Strange how in the land of the original communist revolution that Putin/Russia is making a stand against homosexuality while the West accepts, and in many places, celebrates it.
