The government of the Caucasus nation of Georgia recently introduced an anti-LGBT propaganda bill.
Parliament Majority Leader Mamuka Mdinaradze of the governing Georgian Dream Party said this decision comes as the government accuses LGBT advocacy groups, including Tbilisi Pride and the United Nations, of working behind the scenes to destabilize the country with LGBT propaganda.
“Pride organized the training with the financing from the [United Nations Development Program]. The officials from Pride claimed that it was a workshop to counter Russian disinformation, while the UNDP has said that it had funded workshops about minority rights,” the lawmaker said. “In fact, the topic of the conversation was the defense of pseudo-liberal propaganda.”
Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze, who just assumed power last month following his predecessor’s resignation, supported his party’s decision to introduce the legislation, claiming that it is a fight not just against LGBT propaganda but also against “pseudo-liberal ideology.”
Mdinaradze, echoing the sentiment of his party members, urged the UN and “other sponsors” of LGBT propaganda not to “confuse the rights of minorities with the harmful consequences of LGBT propaganda.” (Related: WOKE TYRANNY: Aspiring foster parents could be prohibited from adopting children if they don’t push gender ideology at home.)
He made this statement to emphasize his party’s “principle position” of “protecting future generations from harmful effects” that come from LGBT propaganda while at the same time protecting the rights of LGBT individuals to live freely within Georgia.
Mdinaradze also cited increasing challenges brought about by the rise of LGBT propaganda, such as efforts to erode the nuclear family structure and to legalize same-sex marriage, which was specifically prohibited by Georgian Dream when they amended the constitution to define marriage as a union between a man and a woman for the purpose of starting a family.
“It is our duty to the Georgian society and its future to counter the targeted propaganda of the non-traditional way of life,” he said.
Analysts are suggesting that the party is positioning itself as the party for tradition and social conservatism to attract more voters ahead of the upcoming parliamentary election at the end of October.
Furthermore, Gigi Kobakhidze, writing for Civil Georgia, noted that introducing this bill early gives Georgian Dream time to roll it back or modify it if it fails to impress voters. The ruling party remains mum about the scope and exact content of the proposed legislation, but its rhetoric bears uncanny similarity with Russian and Hungarian legislation adopted earlier.
Georgian Dream officials believe the proposed ban will receive broad support because it reflects the sentiments of the majority of the mostly conservative population.
“We are a conservative society with centuries-old culture and values,” said Georgian Dream Chairman and former Prime Minister Irakli Garibashvili, adding that Georgian children and the country’s traditional way of life must be protected from “brazen propaganda.”
