DISINFO: The replacement of traditional values with LGBT values aim to destroy the institution of family

SUMMARY

In the Western world, the substitution of traditional values, which form the foundation of European cultures, with LGBT values, may eventually result in the deconstruction of the entire human society.

LGBT values aim to destroy the institution of the family, the one that distinguishes human beings from the animal world. When the traditional family institution is replaced by LGBT values, human society will turn into a herd of consumers.

RESPONSE

Recurring pro-Kremlin narrative aimed at depicting liberalism and Western values as destroying traditional social and spiritual values, as well as national, cultural and gender identities. According to this narrative, liberalism is responsible for cultural and moral decay, the breakdown of the family and community, as well as widespread deviance and perversion.

This recurring narrative blames the West for abandoning the ideals of Christianity, Family and Patriotism – the true European values, while claiming that Russia is a haven of order and decency and upholds these genuine European values.

"Threatened values" is one of the most common narratives used by pro-Kremlin outlets. The narrative is adapted to a wide range of topics and is typically used to discredit liberal Western attitudes regarding the rights of women, ethnic and religious minorities and LGBTIQ groups among others.

Pro-Kremlin outlets often spread the narrative about the deliberate destruction by the West of values such as the traditional family, religion, spirituality and classical culture, eliminating all forms of collective identity. Russia uses this narrative to proclaim itself the defender of traditional social and spiritual values all over the world.

Read similar cases claiming that global capitalism destroys religion, tradition, the family and spirituality, that unlike Russia the West degrades traditional values and endangers societies, that contemporary liberalism is now striving to cancel Western culture and The UN and Klaus Schwab are using LGBT rights against Russia.
