The term "homophobic propaganda" was used by the historian Stefan Micheler in his work "Homophobic Propaganda and the Denunciation of Same-Sex-Desiring Men under National Socialism", [1] as well as other works treating the topic.[2] LGBT (or GLBT) is an abbreviation used as a collective term to refer to Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender people. ...

In some countries some most severe forms of antihomosexual propaganda are considered hate speech and are prohibited by the law. In Russia, such propaganda can also be treated as illegal, because laws in Russia explicitly prohibit hate speech against any social group (not explicitly mentioning sexual orientation though), and LGBT can be considered as distinct social group. [3] But law specialists generally agree that in Russia the law is practically not working. Cases of criminal punishment for antihomosexual, nationalistic or other xenophobic hate speech are rare in Russia.
