In Russia, Queen's famous photo was recognized as LGBT propaganda
A Russian court fined a Muscovite for publishing a photo of the band Queen from the filming of the "I Want to Break Free" music video, where the musicians appeared in women's clothing, on social media.

Moscow resident David Gevandyan was fined under the article on "LGBT propaganda" for a photo showing members of the band Queen dressed in women's clothing during the filming of the music video for the song "I Want to Break Free". "Verstka" found this information in the decision of the Moscow City Court, which heard Gevandyan's appeal.
Earlier, it became known about four administrative protocols drawn up against 21-year-old Gevandyan for "LGBT propaganda", with a fine of 100 thousand Russian rubles (about 1300 dollars) imposed for each of them.
Gevandyan tried to challenge the court's decision. But without success. The court's decision states that the image allegedly "forms a positive attitude towards non-traditional relationships" and "destroys family values."
The argument that this is a still from a famous music video was rejected by the court, which stated that the image "has no musical context."
