Frida Ghitis: Riot police fanned across Moscow last weekend , hunting for gay men.

Ghitis was a journalist in Russia when Vladimir Putin launched his campaign against LGBTQ+ people just over a decade ago .

She says Putin 's anti-LGBTQ+ campaign has taken many turns over the years , sometimes dark, sometimes absurd, sometimes bizarre.

Ghits: The creation of internal enemies is a key step on the road to authoritarianism, and, ultimately, fascism.

Frida Ghitis : GOP spent $37 million on TV ads invoking issues involving trans people.

She says GOP 's campaign against trans people has all the hallmarks of targeting a small population on which to blame, or litigate, contentious issues in society.

Ghitis says Democrats can, and should, acknowledge that America is living through a time of enormous change without compromising support for human rights.
