Kyiv, Ukraine held a pride parade. It lasted ten minutes.

The LGBTQIA+ community came together to celebrate pride month in spite of police brutality, military enlistment office kidnappings, and general homophobic attitudes from the population.
Meanwhile, at the capital's main square gathered the "activists for traditional values". They waved the ultra-nationalist Right Sector and Azov flags, and chanted "To the Ukraine's enemies? Death, Death, Death". They started marching, and later ran towards the location of the pride parade, but by the time they reached it, the participants already have dispersed. Here's the video.
I expected the US to have kept their Nazi dogs on a leash this time around. That way, they could have painted a rosy picture to their domestic libs - "oh, look, how progressive they are over there! They have pride parades ~~and Starbucks~~"
It seems like the Nazis just don't give a fuck sometimes.
Play with fire and you'll get burned, as the saying goes. The US seems to not understand that.
Or maybe their capitalist hegemony is in some deep shit and the only way the empire can hold out trying to uphold it is playing with fire. Simply said - desperation.
