It's now illegal in Russia to share an image of Putin as a gay clown

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/worldviews/wp/2017/04/05/its-now-illegal-in-russia-to-share-an-image-of-putin-as-a-gay-clown/

        Russia has banned a picture depicting President Vladimir Putin
        as a potentially gay clown. Russian news outlets are having
        trouble reporting exactly which image of the Internet's many
        Putin-gay-clown memes is now illegal to share. Because, you
        know, it's been banned.  But the picture was described last
        week on the Russian government's list of things that
        constitute "extremism."
