Russia has added a digitally altered image
of President Vladimir Putin in heavy makeup to its list of banned extremist
materials, saying the picture suggests Putin is gay. The Russian Ministry of Justice last week
added the photo to its index of extremist materials ― a list that now includes
more than 4,000 images that are
illegal to share. The offending image is number 4,071, which the ministry describes
a “man resembling the president” whose makeup “hints at the Russian president’s
allegedly nonstandard sexual orientation.”
