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."

Oh, God!  I can't share Putin-gay-clown images anymore!  What will I do in my free time?!  :-o

The guy isn't smart, hahaha!!  Censorship banning a meme is pretty stupid.  He's begging for a viral, woohoo!!  :D
