Meanwhile, on a somewhat normal day in Belgorod, Russia; things got very tense for a woman who hung a blue blanket out to dry, on an orange balcony. The FSB had her take it down after enraged neighbours called in to complain.

I'm not saying it's exactly the same, but I've heard of American kindergarten teachers being told to take down the color learning rainbow decor which were NOT pride flags because bigoted parents threw a huge fit about the gay decorations. I've seen unironic videos of people claiming any decor featuring a rainbow in a classroom is LGBTQ indoctrination. And they were pointing at cartoon depictions of the sky, like with smiling clouds and suns.
