It disgust me so much how the White House ignores this with the supposedly friend of the gays and the first ever pro-LGBT candidate

It's better to be a homophobe than an Islamophobe, it seems

What you have to understand is that Islam has nothing to do with homophobia as a causation. It only has correlation. Why ? All abrahamic religions(Judaism, Christianity, Islam) are homophobic by nature. As education level of the populace goes down, Islamophobia increases. Why do you think Russia and Armenia are some of the most homophobic mostly christian populated countries in Eurasia ? Because income per capita is too low, and income per capita is associated with education level. Uganda is also christian and one of the most homophobic countries in the world.

Also, Russia is a federal country, not a unitary one; there are autonomous entities in Russian Federation. Chechnya is one of those autonomous entities but the leader of Chechnya is Ramzan Kadyrov who is the key person here. Kadyrov used to be part of militants fighting for independence of Chechnya but he shifted alliance, and now he is very close with Putin, even argued to be a hitman for Putin by many others. Russia is a militaristic country. You cannot understand political dynamics of Russia by american perspective. It doesn't matter how "Islamic" or "Christian" Kadyrov is to have as much freedom as he wants for Putin. What matters is whether he obeys Putin or not. And he obeys putin like K-9 German Shepherd. 

I am not shaming Putin or Russia here. My own country of origin, Turkey, is another example of highly militaristic countries. Regular trans people have it super hard but at the same time, there are trans celebrities joining dinners of Erdogan and being praised by conservative media because they choose to obey Erdogan.

The religious denomination is Islamic in this nation of Russia. A quick google search showed me this.

"The names of 27 people slaughtered in a single night by Chechen authorities have been published.

The secret mass execution is thought to have seen up to 56 people killed – all without trial. 

The executions were all carried out in Chechnya’s capital, Grozny, on the night of 25 January, the newspaper claims.

According to the strongly anti-Putin publication, mass arrests and executions in the Muslim region were triggered by the killing of a policeman on 16 December 2016.

It reports that the victims were shot without trial, then the bodies were “taken to various cemeteries, including Christian ones, where they were buried in hastily dug graves”.

The Russian LGBT Network confirmed that a number of the men killed were gay and bisexual, but some are believed to be heterosexual.

“As far as we know, the information in the Novaya Gazeta regarding 27 people being killed is true,” a representative for the group said. 

“With regards to the sexual orientation of those killed, as far as we know there are homosexual people in this list, but not all of them at all.”

The outlet has spent months investigating illegal detentions in the area.

The same newspaper broke the story that the region is rounding up and persecuting gay people earlier this year.

Explaining its reasons for publishing the harrowing list of 27 names, the paper wrote: “Two months we had hoped for cooperation at the very beginning [of the investigation]to be effective.

“Today it is obvious that the Investigative Committee of Russia is losing ground on this situation…

“That is why we publish the list of those who, according to our information, were victims of the worst possible extrajudicial executions in Grozny.

“And now the investigation, which has a lack of living of witnesses, will have to deal with the special witnesses.

“Because only the dead have nothing to fear in Chechnya.”

The Chechen government has denied allegations of a gay purge in the region, despite many victims coming forward to reveal their ordeals.

European leaders Angela Merkel and Emmanuel Macron have both raised the issue publicly during meetings with Vladimir Putin, and the UK government has also expressed concerns.

Activists in Russia say Chechen authorities have re-started the detaining of gay and bi men following on from a “gay purge” this year.

Now, according to Enrique Torre Molina of All Out, Chechens have contacted the Russian LGBT Network hotline to say that arrests are again being made once again.

The ‘concentration camps’ were reportedly set up in February 2017, with gay men being abducted, held prisoner and tortured there.

Two camps were initially reported on, based in the villages of Argun and Tsotsi-Yurt, but further investigations revealed a further four jails for gay people, bringing the total number believed to be in the Chechen Republic up to six.

One was later destroyed and moved to a new location.
