Right now, a law is being formulated to take down all Russian emo sites and all emo sites outside Russia - to deny the access to them in the Russian Federation.
Also, people dressed in emo and goth style won't be able to enter schools and official institutions.
The Russian government explains their actions, by saying that these subcultures encourage depression and suicide among young people.
There were protests from emos in Russia, supported by punkers, rockers and goths.
In Krasnoyarsk, Siberia, where this law is already applied lots of the protesting people's posters say "Totalitarian country encourages stupidity".
"There are some teenagers, who are just fans of the music and that's all. We've got nothing against them. Our actions are against youngsters who self hurt themselves, attempt to suicide, etc." explains the co-author of this law, Igor Ponkin, chancellor in the Russian Ministry of the Interior Affairs, department of the public control.

This is so stupid, people dont become Emo from Emo internet websites, they become Emo because they feel lonely and have a despret life.

People do not understand what emos go through.

Emo websites let Emos describe there feelings, and not attract them to be Emos.

So, this is really stupid for the russian goverment.
