Disney Company came under a firestorm of attacks as former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley faced off against Florida Governor Ron DeSantis during the fifth Republican primary debate on Wednesday.Haley and DeSantis debated at Drake University in Des Moines, Iowa, as they vie for the GOP presidential nomination.

The Republican front-runner, former President Donald Trump, wasn't present. He instead participated in a Fox News town hall in Iowa.

He has yet to attend a GOP primary debate this election cycle.Showing how much the years-long culture war has permeated politics, Haley and DeSantis spent some of their time onstage attempting to prove who was the biggest critic of Disney, the entertainment behemoth branded "woke" by a faction of conservatives.In 2022, Disney made headlines for criticizing DeSantis' Parental Rights in Education bill.

The bill, also known as the "Don't Say Gay" law, says that "a school district may not encourage classroom discussion about sexual orientation or gender identity in primary grade levels or in a manner that is not age-appropriate or developmentally appropriate for students."It also says that parents "may bring an action against a school district to obtain a declaratory judgment that a school district procedure or practice violates this paragraph and seek injunctive relief.

lgbt Rights Courts country Extreme politician Russia: Supreme Court bans 'LGBT movement' for 'extremism'
Russia's Supreme Court on Thursday banned the "international LGBT movement" for extremism in the midst of the country's conservative turn, paving the way for legal action against any group defending LGBT+ rights in Russia.Judge Oleg Nefedov ordered that "the international LGBT movement and its subsidiaries be recognised as extremist and their activities banned from the territory of the Russian Federation", according to AFP correspondents on the ground.Mr Nefedov said that the ban would come into force "immediately".The hearing took place without defence counsel, as no organisation bearing the name "international LGBT movement" exists in Russia, and behind closed doors as the case was classified as "secret".In mid-November, the Russian Ministry of Justice called for the "international LGBT movement" to be described as an "extremist organisation" and banned, without clearly saying which organisation it was targeting.Any public activity associated with what Russia considers to be "non-traditional" sexual preferences could now be deemed "extremism", a crime punishable by heavy prison sentences.Until now, LGBT+ people risked heavy fines if they engaged in what the authorities called "propaganda", but not imprisonment.In recent years, Russian propagandists and politicians have increasingly referred to homosexuals as "paedophiles" and claimed they are part of an insidious attempt to "westernise" Russian society.The situation is particularly dire in the Caucasus republic of Chechnya, where gay men in particular face imprisonment, torture and murder at the hands of police.
