Yeah recriminalizing gay marriage was pretty bad, like he did a lot of good things and obviously helped save us from fascism. But the homophobic policies sucked and he was definitely a tier below Lenin as a leader.
That was part of a broad reform to criminalize pedophilia, and was really misguided, yeah. I think I read somewhere that statue was only used to imprison an otherwise normal gay person exactly once though, and it was after Stalin had died.
