Russia has been quite homophobic and has been showing it over the past years . And Youtubers ChebuRussiaTV proved it once again. They decided to take a walk in Moscow holding hands and as you can imagine, people would call them “faggots”, but they were also physically assaulted. Generally, it’s kind of shocking watching all this hate. “On one side of the planet this is absolutely normal. In Russia, it’s not”.

This video proves nothing but the apparent; how hard is to be gay even in 2015. It has not been a month since the U.S. have voted for marriage equality, meaning gay can get married, too, and in Russia, even walking with your partner is unacceptable!
