People were calling for a boycott of all things Russian, or did you forget that?
The irony of course being that Russia decriminalized same-sex relationships in 1993 long before the US, effectively, did the same in 2003 even though 14 states still ban sodomy.
- wonderzombie 13y agoAnd yet the US, EU, et al, still sent their Olympic teams to Sochi. I remember hearing something about how companies are usually pretty happy when people call for a boycott because it means it's a vocal minority and nothing organized. I don't really see how this is relevant except for a tit-for-tat comparison b/w Russia and the US, which is kinda pointless.
