It is a common excuse used by right wing reactionary states to label LGBT activists as “foreign influence”.
This is simply a reminder to those who uncritically support right wing reactionary governments who curb foreign NGOs (which I am not opposed to, in principle) in the name of “anti-imperialism” that the same excuse will be used against our LGBT comrades and also left wingers down the road, by simply accusing them of being “Western influence” now that the law already exists.
The next step will be to label left wing parties as “foreign agents” just like what they are accusing the LGBT activists of.
Note that I am not saying that foreign NGOs don’t influence their domestic politics and are as tools to advance Western imperialism in those countries. I am saying that be careful of what such a law can do against left wing movements when it is wielded by right wing reactionary governments.
