The Spin

Narrative A

The law protects traditional Georgian values and the rights of all citizens. It's based on common sense, historical experience, and centuries-old cultural norms. The legislation ensures that freedom of expression doesn't violate others' rights, which is the essence of true democracy.

European Conservative

Narrative B

This legislation further marginalizes an already vulnerable community and could lead to increased violence against LGBTQ+ individuals. It's a cynical attempt by the ruling party to shore up support among conservative voters ahead of the Oct. 26 parliamentary election at the expense of human rights.
