    1920s Russia attitude towards being gay was the worldwide stance on being gay at that same time. Western support of us now is irrelevant if there are no improvements to our material conditions…

    Use of the hammer and sickle today is symbolic of communism and the working class, not pining for the Soviet Union.

      key element 1920’s… either way everybody hated the gays back then. Like where could the gay be back then as free? The fascist give lifestyle alternatives as a ploy to make them seem more progressive and humane or the opposite to pander to the confused pent up angry worker. We are still dealing with constant war to this day with global capitalism. The state is about power over the individual owned by a capitalist class or the people through political mechanisms. Humanity has never been graceful and it is understandable why gays question this issue. It is good some gays are taking ownership of the superior economic model. We are better socialized in someways to better understand the diverse world of sex and gender. The capitalist lullaby is getting stale.
