Sure, I can cite that.

Source for the high (and increasing) hate crimes towards LGBTQ+ including gays:

Kondakov, Alexander (November 2021). "The influence of the 'gay-propaganda' law on violence against LGBTIQ people in Russia: Evidence from criminal court rulings". European Journal of Criminology. 18 (6): 940–959. doi:10.1177/1477370819887511. ISSN 1477-3708. S2CID 210497632.

As for citations regarding the law that will wind you up in jail for desplaying any pro LGBTQ sentiments, including being gay...well there are 10 regions in russia each with their own laws making it illegal in additional to the national law, one such region includes jail time. For a citation regarding the national law thoug, the most relevant see here:

"Russia: Federal laws introducing ban of propaganda of non-traditional sexual relationships" (PDF). Article 19. Retrieved 14 February 2014.

As for your comments about Ukraine aside from the scary language that amounts to "he drafts people", which is so silly im not even going to give it attention, can you please cite your sources that he is jailing oppositional journalists, thanks.

I only got through the mention of the first reporter.. But seems this is about ukrainian reports **in russia** being supressed. The first example was about a ukrainian reporter who wound up in occupied territory and got arrested by Russia....

@realcaseyrollins

So far (and perhaps its towards the end of your link) I havent seen a single example of Ukraine supressing a journalist. Out of all your links can you point me to the one case you think is most exemplary of this so i can focus on reading about that?
