      Ah yes, the USSR, a state which considered homosexuality to be a mental disorder and a sign of fascism, and then subsequently criminalized it, arrested queer people, and sentenced them to years in labour camps.

      People oppose communism because we don’t trust authoritarians to make good decisions, and when they inevitably make bad decisions, the effects are disastrous and widespread due to how centralized the system is.

        It’s unrelated to Ussr.
        Many countries criminalized it and still do including US until very very recent times.

        Nothing to do with communism vs capitalism.

      Communism is just a different sort of fucked up. It’s just as bad for people in its own way.
