Gay in the gulag
libcom.org
Historical information about the repression of gay men in the Soviet Union in the wake of the government's re-criminalisation of homosexuality in 1933, after its decriminalisation in 1922. Trigger warning for sexual violence.

I tried to find a Pravda referencing this view on homosexuality being the root of fascism but I couldn’t find it, and it really makes zero sense for this to be ever said by a communist party

    Iirc Fidel didn’t admit he was wrong about gay people until the 60s, after GULAG was shut down, so it seems plausible the soviets were being shitasses.
