St. Petersburg Schoolchildren Screened for LGBTQ «Propaganda»

Teachers in Russia’s second-largest city of St. Petersburg have been instructed to monitor their students’ social media profiles.

The teachers should screen students social media for presence of «LGBTQ symbols», the LGBT Network rights group said.

Any such symbols would be considered violations of Russia’s 2013 law that bans the display of «gay propaganda» toward minors, themoscowtimes.com reports.
