    FYI, Poland had a pretty far-right undemocratic government until relatively recently (a few years…). Keyword PiS. For a moment it looked like they might do a full Hungary. I’m glad they got back from that!

      The new (current) government promised a lot of improvement, but did very little. And during current presidential campaign (elections this Sunday) they don’t even pretend they care much about LGBT rights.

          Good excuse. They could just wait for ‘their’ president. We will see how much of those laws will be signed when the ne president takes the office. I am afraid that when they get their own president the law changes won’t be on the table any more. The presidential campaign did not raise my hopes.

    The green and red thumbnail made me somehow read Portugal instead of Poland which left me confused for a second

    Why was it worse? Polish pope, focusing on spreading LGBT hate to Poland. Now, they’re more focused on fighting off Russia.

    Romania? I guess they’re planning on fighting off the growing eastern orthodox Russians, and the Balkan muslims.

    It’s all a war with them. A perpetual war to influence and force people into their shitty religions.

      PiS is no longer able block LGBTQ+ events like Pride Parades and municipalities have withdrawn anti LGBTQ+ laws. They current government also created a number of hate speech laws, which would protect them, but the PiS president refuses to sign them.

      So it seems to get better, but far from good.
