Colleagues, in my opinion, again this was a rally by someone unknown. I look at photographs and the only things that catch my eye are the flags of political parties. As I understand it, they decided to promote themselves against doctors once again, as they did on November 2. Yes, banners of the medical trade union “Action” were visible, but why the hell are LGBT people looming there? To hell with them, with these “non-traditional” people, but where are our people?

I was at a press conference before the St. Petersburg youth forum. Everything was carried out in the form of a quest: journalists were divided into several teams that ran around the anti-cafe, answered questions like “who are the most famous Russian politicians,” and also showed a tree.

“Children-404” is apparently the only project in Russia that supports LGBT teenagers, who, after the adoption of a homophobic law, are left alone with the fact that they are “not like everyone else.” Psychologists and doctors are afraid to tell a teenager and his parents that he is normal and healthy. Teachers are afraid to see such a teenager in their class, to explain to his classmates that mocking him is just as dishonest as bullying a “bespectacled” or “fat” teenager.

In St. Petersburg, a branch of "City Projects" Ilya Varlamov and Maxim Katz was opened. At a meeting with readers, the creators of the project explained why the behavior of citizens forms not mentality, but infrastructure. “In order to understand that there are problems in the city, it is not necessary to be an expert,” Katz emphasized at a meeting with readers on December 2. The agenda in St. Petersburg will be formed by St. Petersburg activists.

Russia refused to answer questions from the European Court of Human Rights in the case of election fraud in St. Petersburg in 2011. Instead, as it turned out, on November 13 of this year, i.e. three years after the elections, they turned to law enforcement agencies, accusing the applicants to the ECHR of falsifying copies of protocols on the election results, which became evidence in the courts.
