In Wake of Brutal Murder, Questions About the Roots of Russian Homophobia · Global Voices | Spørgsmål om ophavet til russisk homofobi i kølvandet på brutalt mord |
Over the past year RuNet Echo has covered the woes of the Russian LGBT community , specifically with regard to laws banning so-called "propaganda of homosexuality," passed first by the city of St. Petersburg and now being championed in the Russian parliament by MPs Sergey Dorofeev and Elena Mizulina (the proposed bill is currently in its second "reading," or amendment process). | (Alle links er på engelsk, medmindre andet er angivet) Det sidste år har RuNet Echo beskrevet Ruslands LGBT-fællesskabs sørgelige tilstand. Love, som forbyder såkaldt "homoseksuel propaganda", som første gang blev vedtaget i Sankt Petersborg , fremmes nu i det russiske parlament af parlamentsmedlemmerne Sergey Dorofeev og Elena Mizulina, og det aktuelle lovforslag behandles i øjeblikket for anden gang. |
It is unsurprising that this intolerant climate and increasingly hateful rhetoric would finally give rise to actual hate crimes. | Ikke overraskende har dette intolerante klima og den stadigt mere hadefulde retorik resulteret i deciderede hate crimes. |
This is precisely the connection that many Russian bloggers made after learning that the three Volgograd men who were arrested for brutally murdering their drinking companion, the 23 year old Vladislav Tornovoi, on the night following the May 9th Victory Day celebrations, apparently admitted that they did so because he told them he was gay. | Nøjagtig dén slutning drog mange russiske bloggere efter det brutale mord på den 23-årige Vladislav Tornovoi, som havde deltaget i festligheder med tre mænd fra Volgograd , der efterfølgende blev anholdt for mordet. Tilsyneladende indrømmede de anholdte, at årsagen til mordet var, at Tornovoi havde fortalt dem, at han var homoseksuel. |
Boris Vishnevsky blogged on the Echo Moskvy website: | Boris Vishnevsky bloggede i den forbindelse på websitet for Echo Moskvy: |
I want to believe that the killers will be punished. | Jeg ønsker at tro, at morderne vil blive straffet. |
But who will punish the ideological instigators? for many years have, with impunity, (and with the use of a parliamentary pulpit) spread hate and enmity based on sexual orientation? adopt insane laws banning "propaganda of homosexuality?" | Men hvem vil straffe selve ideologiens ophavsmænd? i mange år, uden at kunne blive straffet (og fra parlamentets talerstol) har spredt had og fjendskab på baggrund af seksuel orientering? adopterer vanvittige love, som forbyder "homoseksuel propaganda?" |
The homophobic motives for the murder are seemingly supported by the fact that after brutally beating Tornovoi the men undressed him and forced empty beer bottles into his rectum, leading the journalist Alexander Timofeevsky to comment on his Facebook account: | De homofobiske motiver til mordet understøttes af det faktum, at de tre mænd, efter brutalt at have overfaldet Tornovoi, afklædte ham og tvang tomme ølflasker op i hans endetarm. Dette ledte journalisten Alexander Timofeevsky til at udgive følgende kommentar på sin Facebook-side: |
I wonder, do the State Duma deputies, who while noisily advertising their moral position are right now passing a law banning the propaganda of homosexuality, understand that these beer bottles - "two entered fully, and the third partially" - were basically given by them? | Jeg undrer mig over, om medlemmerne af State Duma, som alt imens de højlydt reklamerer for deres moralske position lige nu er ved at vedtage en lov, der forbyder homoseksuel propaganda, forstår at disse ølflasker - "to indsat helt, og den tredje delvist" - dybest set blev givet af dem? |
Others blamed the murder not on Russia's homophobic parliamentarians, but simply on the homophobia endemic to Russian society, according to one theory mainly as the result of a large former inmate population and the associated stigma of homosexuality. | Frem for at skyde skylden for mordet på Ruslands homofobiske parlamentarikere, pegede andre på, at homofobi er endemisk i det russiske samfund. Ifølge én teori skyldes dette et socialt stigma om homoseksualitet, som hovedsageligt udspringer af det høje antal af tidligere fængselsindsatte i befolkningen. |
DemVybor's Deputy Chairman and prolific blogger Kirill Shulika wrote : | Kirill Shulika, som er næstformand i DemVybor og blogger, skrev : |
Homophobia? | Homofobi? |
Maybe, but it is tied to the fact that the drinking buddies of this gay person were former inmates. | Muligvis, men den er bundet til det faktum, at denne homoseksuelle persons druk-venner var tidligere indsatte. |
In general, in Russia homophobia is tied to the fact that half the country has done time or knows someone who's done time. | Generelt er homofobi i Rusland bundet til det faktum, at halvdelen af landet har siddet inde eller kender nogen, der har. |
Mizulina and Milonov's homophobia has a completely different goal. | Mizulina og Milonovs homofobi har et helt andet mål. |
It is geared towards activists of the protest movement with the goal of distracting them from real problems. | Den er rettet mod aktivister i protestbevægelsen med det mål at distrahere dem fra reelle problemer. |
A similar point was made by journalist Andrey Gromov , and publicist Pavel Sviatenkov , who also blamed prison culture where homosexuality is widely practiced, and yet homosexuals are considered to be a lower caste. | En lignende pointe blev fremført af journalisten Andrey Gromov og presseagenten Pavel Sviatenkov , som ligeledes anklagede fængselskulturen, hvor homoseksualitet praktiseres i udstrakt grad samtidig med, at homoseksuelle anses for at være en social lavstatusgruppe. |
Because such conduct is often part of power relations in prison society, Sviatenkov says: | Eftersom sådan adfærd i fængsler ofte hænger sammen med magtrelationer, sagde Sviatenkov: |
From the point of view of criminal philosophy its is shameful to be a passive homosexual, a "rooster." | Fra et kriminalfilosofisk synspunkt er det skamfuldt at være en passiv homoseksuel, en "hane." |
But an active homosexual is considered a "real man." | Men en aktiv homoseksuel bliver betragtet som en "rigtig mand." |

These claims were picked up on by nationalist/conservative blogger Natalia Kholmogorova, who insinuated that it was the murderers who were gay: | Disse erklæringer blev taget op af den nationalkonservative blogger Natalia Kholmogorova, som insinuerede , at det var morderne, som var homoseksuelle: |
Several men attack one, imitate a perverse sexual act with him, sadistically manipulate his sexual organs (sorry for the details), then kill him. | Adskillige mænd angriber en, efterligner en pervers seksuel handling med ham, manipulerer på sadistisk vis hans kønsorganer (beklager detaljerne), og dræber ham efterfølgende. |
This isn't "homophobes caught and tortured a poor gay" - it's a group of sadists who perpetrated homosexual violence on their victim. | Dette er ikke "homofober fangede og torturerede en stakkels homoseksuel" - det er en gruppe sadister, som begik homoseksuel vold mod deres offer. |
Regardless of such loopy, homophobic opinions, if Tornovoi was not actually gay, then his murderers had to have made up the fact that he told them that he was. | Hvis Tornovoi i virkeligheden ikke var homoseksuel, må hans mordere selv have digtet deres forklaring om, at han havde fortalt dem det, uanset sådanne tvivlsomme, homofobiske holdninger. |
This worries Alexander Timofeevsky, because it might mean that Russian homophobia is even worse than we thought: | Dette bekymrer Alexander Timofeevsky, eftersom homofobi i Rusland dermed kan være et endnu større problem end hidtil antaget: |
This means that they think that homosexuality of a victim is a mitigating, if not exonerating, motive. | Dette betyder, at de betragter et offers homoseksualitet som et formildende, hvis ikke frikendende, motiv. |
As in, killing fags is the natural order of things. | Som om dét at dræbe bøsser er naturens orden. |
Look at deputy Elena Mizulina, an important woman from Moscow, who says on TV that their behavior can't be excused. | Se på næstformand Elena Mizulina, en vigtig kvinde fra Moskva, som siger på TV, at deres adfærd ikke kan undskyldes. |
Popular Chinese Writer's Microblog Scrubbed from Sina Weibo · Global Voices | Populær kinesisk forfatter har fået fjernet sin microblog fra Sina Weibo (Alle links er på engelsk, medmindre andet er angivet) |
The online Sina Weibo microblogging account of Murong Xuecun, one of China's most popular writers and one of the country's foremost critics of censorship, has been deleted from the site, suspected to be part of the government's efforts to crack down on online rumors by targeting high-profile users. | Den populære blogger og førende censurkritiker Murong Xuecun har fået fjernet sin konto fra den kinesiske hjemmeside Sina Weibo, landets pendant til Twitter. Man mener, at han er blevet offer for regeringens seneste tiltag om at regulere rygter, der spredes via internettet ved at slå ned på højt profilerede internetprofiler. |
Murong's account, which had more than 1.1 million followers, was taken down from the Twitter-link website on May 11, 2013. | Murongs konto, som havde mere end 1,1 millioner følgere, blev fjernet den 11. maj 2013. |
His writing as well as his microblogging discusses social issues in contemporary China such as corruption and media censorship. | Hans forfatterskab og microblogging diskuterer sociale forhold i det moderne Kina som f.eks. korruption og mediecensur. |
Many speculated the deletion had something to do with the government’s recent plan to squeeze the popular microblogging site's verified users with millions of followers, known as “Big V’s”. | Mange mente, at nedtagelsen havde noget at gøre med regeringens nye tiltag om at regulere antallet af populære bloggere, der har millioner af følgere, kendt som ’Big Vs’. |
The reason behind going after these users is a desire to crack down on online rumors, as the State Internet Information Office announced on May 2, 2013, due to a recent protest in Beijing. | Dette bliver gjort i et forsøg på bedre at kunne kontrollere og regulere online rygter, der bliver spredt via disse blogs, annoncerede den kinesiske regerings State Internet Information Office den 2. maj 2013 på grund af en protest afholdt i Beijing for nylig. |
The move has triggered outrage among Murong's followers. Many have changed their account name into “Murong Xuecun second generation” or “Murong Xuecun third generation” to show support. | Dette tiltag har affødt stor vrede blandt Murongs følgere, og mange af dem har efterfølgende valgt at ændre deres kontos navn til enten ”Murong Xuecun anden generation” eller ”Murong Xuecun tredje generation” i et forsøg på at vise deres støtte. |
One Murong Xuecun fan club emerged on the same day his Weibo account was deleted, offering updated information about Murong. | Der blev sågar oprettet en fanside samme dag, som hans Weibo-konto blev lukket, hvor hans fans og følgere stadig kunne få opdateringer og nyheder vedrørende ham. |
The fan club wrote : | Fanklubben skrev : |
Murong Xuecun talks about his unrelated Sina Weibo censorship experiences in Dalian in July 2012. | Murong Xuecun taler om sine oplevelser med censuren på Sina Weibo i Dalian i juli 2012. |

Block one Murong Xuecun, and thousands of “Murong Xuecun” will appear. | At fjerne en Murong Xuecun vil bare medføre tusind nye. |
This is the strength of freedom. | Det er styrken ved frihed. |
Murong’s new account is “Pingyuan Dongfangshuo”. | Murongs nye blog hedder Pingyuang Dongfangshuo. |
Ex-Google China chief Kai-Fu Lee shared Murong’s old posts with Weibo users from freeWeibo, a blog that keeps track of censored content on Sina Weibo: His remains are outside of the wall. | Tidligere chef for Google i Kina, Kai-Fu Lee, delte Murongs censurerede indlæg med Weibo-brugere fra freeWeibo, en blog der deler de indlæg fra Sina Weibo, der er blevet fjernet på grund af censuren: |
Wang Yiqing, a journalist from Hainan Daily, updated Murong’s status on Weibo： | I dag blev jeg overrasket over, at Murongs Xuecuns blog var blevet slettet. |
Today I was surprised to find Murong Xuecun’s account was deleted. I have read most of his books, and almost never missed his microblog. | Jeg har læst de fleste af hans bøger og har altid fuldt med i hans indlæg. |
There are not many writers with both conscience and calmness in this country, even less for those who have some knowledge about the law and are willing to practise. | Der er ikke mange forfattere i dette land, der både har en ordentlig samvittighed og ro, og endnu færre derudover som også har kendskab til, hvordan landets love fungerer. |
Goodbye, Murong, I will leave microblogging for a while, because this world is still unenlightened. | Farvel, Murong, jeg vil nu forlade indlægsskrivningen for en stund, da denne verden stadig ikke er oplyst. |
Tonight, please forget me. | Glem mig venligst i aften. |
Former New York Times research assistant Bao Beibei commented on the potential greater impact of this move to censor Murong： | Tidligere forskningsassistent for New York Times Bao Beibei kommenterede den mulige indflydelse, censuren af Murong vil få: |
Pulitzer wrote that if the country is likened to a ship, reporters are the ship's lookout who offers timely warning before the rapids. Not only reporters, I think commentators and writers who write on social themes can be included in this category. | Pulitzer skrev, at hvis landet blev sammenlignet med et skib, er journalister ligesom skibets udkigsposter, der sørger for at advare i god tid inden et farligt rev. Ikke kun journalister, men jeg mener også at kritikere, og andre forfattere, som beskriver sociale forhold kan findes i denne kategori. |
Removing one lookout will not reduce the chance of the ship hitting a reef, but it may reduce the vigilance and ability to respond to the reef for those on board. | At fjerne en udkigspost vil ikke reducere skibets chancer for at ramme et rev men kun dets vagtsomhed og dets mulighed for at meddele de andre medpassagerer om revet. |
For @Murong Xuecun | Til @Murong Xuecun |
“LiWu-Mingri Hulianwang” expressed his disappointment with a microblogging site without Murong: | “LiWu-Mingri Hulianwang” udtrykte sin skuffelse ved at have en blog-hjemmeside uden Murong således: |
@Murongxuecun was “killed”, which means bloggers with insights have been annihilated. | @Murongxuecun er blevet "dræbt", og det har medført, at bloggere, der har en stemme, er blevet tilintetgjort. |
Microblogging has substantially reduced its value to me. | Microblogindlæg har derfor mistet værdi for mig. |
The expectation for microblogging as a way to promote social progress has been weakened. | Forventningen om, at microblogindlæg skal kunne udtrykke utilfredshed om sociale forhold, er i den grad blevet forringet. |
An attempt to hold Ukraine's first gay pride parade is meeting resistance from a member of the country's far-right All-Ukranian Union "Freedom" party who is organizing anti-equality events to coincide with the march on May 25, 2013. | Et forsøg på at afholde Ukraines første homoparade møder modstand fra et medlem af landet stærkt højreorienterede frihedsparti VO Svoboda, som organiserer protestbegivenheder samtidig med marchen, der afholdes d. 25. maj 2013. |
A previous attempt to organize a gay pride parade failed in May 2012, when the event was cancelled shortly before it was to begin and one of its organizers, Svyatoslav Sheremet , was beaten by a group of masked men. | I maj 2012 mislykkedes et tidligere forsøg på at organisere en homoparade, idet eventet blev aflyst umiddelbart inden dets start, og hvor en af arrangørerne, Svyatoslav Sheremet , blev overfaldet af en gruppe maskerede mænd. |
Judging from the online reactions that began to appear as soon as the upcoming Equality March was announced in the Ukrainian media at the end of April, things may not go very smoothly this year as well. | Skal man dømme efter de reaktioner, som kunne ses online, da den kommende March For Lighed var blevet annonceret i de ukrainske medier i slutningen af april, tegner forløbet sig heller ikke gnidningsfrit i år. |
On Facebook, the pro-Equality March event , created on April 30, has slightly over 120 users who have signed up to attend, whereas one of the anti-March events , created on May 10 by a member of one of the parliamentary opposition parties, already has 195 potential attendees. | På begivenheden for homoparaden på Facebook, som blev oprettet d. 30. april, har lidt over 120 brugere tilmeldt sig, mens en af protestmarcherne , hvis begivenhed blev oprettet d. 10. maj af et medlem af et af parlamentets protestpartier, allerede har 195 deltagere. |
The latter event - "Let's Stop 'Gay Propaganda'!" - is the initiative of Oleksandr Aronets, a Kyiv-based member of VO Svoboda (which, ironically, translates as the All-Ukrainian Union "Freedom"). | Sidstnævnte begivenhed, "Let's Stop 'Gay Propaganda'!", er blevet til på initiativ fra Oleksandr Aronets, et Kiev-baseret medlem af VO Svoboda (der, ironisk nok, oversættes som den udelukkende ukrainske union "Frihed"). |
This far-right party won over 10 percent of the vote in the Oct. 28 election, becoming the fourth largest political force represented in the Ukrainian Parliament, with 37 seats (a GV text about it here). | Dette stærkt højreorienterede parti vandt over 10 procent af stemmerne i afstemningen den 28. oktober, og blev dermed den fjerdestørste politiske fløj, som er repræsenteret i det ukrainske parlament med 37 sæder (læs en artikel fra GV om det her). |
On April 30, Aronets began his anti-Equality March campaign with this Facebook post : | Aronets påbegyndte kampagnen for sin March Mod Lighed med dette Facebook-opslag fra d. 30. april : |
"The equality march in defense of the gays" will not take place in Kyiv! | "Marchen for lighed i forsvar for de homoseksuelle kommer ikke til at foregå i Kiev! |
Very soon, Ukrainians will start preparing to resist the attempts to impose these perversions on us! | Ukrainere vil meget snart begynde at modsætte sig forsøgene på at pålægge os disse perversioner! |
Resistance will take place on all fronts, physical as well as intellectual! | Modstand vil foregå på alle fronter, fysiske såvel som intellektuelle! |
Politicians as well as public figures, writers, the clergy and ordinary Ukrainians will stand up against it, arriving from all over to Kyiv to defend the traditional family values! | Politikere såvel som offentlige personer, forfattere, gejstlige og almindelige ukrainere vil rejse sig mod den, og ankommer fra hele til Kiev for at forsvare de traditionelle familieværdier! |
Liberal fascism shall not pass! | Liberal fascisme vil ikke blive tolereret! |
Nearly two weeks later, the discussion of Aronets' post still continues. | Omkring to uger senere fortsætter diskussionen om Aronets' opslag. |
There are now over 700 comments, and while many of them are about the upcoming Equality March, there are plenty of those that address VO Svoboda's aggressively paternalist stance as well. | Der er nu over 700 kommentarer, og selvom mange af dem omhandler den forestående March For Lighed, adresserer mange andre VO Svobodas aggressivt formynderiske standpunkt. |
