Putin has brainwashed Russians with hatred towards everyone and everything.
Not that long ago Russia had a lot of LGBT artists, like Shura, Boris Moiseyev, t.A.T.u. (which even went to Eurovision), as well as many acts from xUSSR countries like Verka Serduchka were super popular. Everyone is gone and gay propaganda is a crime.
Not that long ago the USSR was trying really hard to show the world they love Africans, loads studied (for free), lived, married, had successful carriers. Great examples are rapper N'PANS and TV presenter Elena Khanga. Khanga moved to YouTube, N'PANS went underground.
Not that long ago racism and bigotry was weird and unusual, today it's just the way of life.
And since the start of war, everyone who was against moved out to other countries.
