NoteThere is mainly no censorship in Bulgaria. However, most TV shows with Homosexuality acts have been or most likely banned. Moreover, most of the time if there is a LGBTQ parade there is also a anti-gay parade. For example in June there was a massive protest against LGBTQ family rights which I will put in the source box to check out. Also there has not been many parades in Bulgaria, as a incident in Burgas they were throwing rocks and other stuff at the parade. There has been LGBTQ+ advertisements however, they either have been taken down or vandalised. Also a bisexual officer set up a LGBTQ union but was shunned which I will also put in the source box. Most schools are not allowed to teach and promote LGBTQ+ Topics. Most homophobic propaganda put up is not taken down or vandilased. And there was once a The Amazing World of Gumball episode banned in bulgaria for having homosexual activity in the episode. Most of this kind of like Indonesia.

For other mods do not change this as I'm pretty sure my info is correct it took a while to find all of this info so if it is wrong please put a lot of info. Thank you. I will add extra info soon. No Official Censorship since the fall of homophobic Marxism, will likely be condemned if

Reports (1)
  • Status is not correct "While yes indeed, there are people who vandalize LGBTQ ads - the discrimination is not state enforced. Schools are allowed to teach about LGBT rights, this can be seen in a 6th grade "human and nature" book that is state approved. "
