Just to be safe (and maybe it's useless), it's worth recalling the prohibition of a single ideology, which appears directly in our constitution, Article 13. Ideological diversity is recognized in the Russian Federation. Ideology cannot be determined as a state or obligation. No ideology of "good" and ideology of "bad" can be imposed from above - these are not strictly regulated offenses. Otherwise, when you read news like this, the hair on my head starts moving again. Will all other basic constitutional rights remain or will we, as in the dogmatic era of the moral struggle of the past, run through the streets with scissors and cut off the heads of modern "hipsters"? Section 19. The state guarantees equality of rights and freedoms for people and citizens, regardless of sex, race, nationality, language, origin, property and official status, place of residence, attitude to religion, beliefs, membership in public associations as well as other circumstances. Any form of limiting the rights of citizens on the basis of social, racial, national, linguistic or religious affiliation is prohibited. Article 29 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation enshrines key human rights and freedoms related to freedom of thought, speech and information. Here is its full text: Everyone is guaranteed freedom of thought and speech. Propaganda or agitation inciting social, racial, national or religious hatred and enmity is not permitted. Promotion of social, racial, national, religious or linguistic superiority is prohibited.
No one can be forced to express or give up their opinions and beliefs.
Every person has the right to search, receive, transmit, produce and distribute information freely by any legal means. The list of information that constitutes a state secret is determined by federal law. Freedom of mass information guaranteed. Censorship is prohibited.
