A protest is going to be held in Moscow against free speech. 100,000 people are planning to attend in support of the idea that the speech which offends religion should be illegal.
This is especially hilarious in Russia where, for the obvious historical reasons, nobody is religious. Of course, since nobody in the country knows much about any religion, it will be very easy to ban pretty much any kind of speech as offensive to some vaguely religious sentiments.
The situation where 100,000 of atheists are marching to ban free speech on religious grounds is seriously funny.
As further reading, I want to recommend to you the most brilliant post anybody has written in the wake of the Charlie Hebdo attack. Read until the very end. It’s really powerful.
