Also the GDR was pretty pro gay for its time, even ruling
homosexuality, just like heterosexuality, represents a variant of sexual behavior. Homosexual people do therefore not stand outside socialist society, and the civil rights are warranted to them exactly as to all other citizens
There's this weird revisionism around that topic where people pretend like West Germany was better on gay rights because thousands of people were dying of AIDS there and the government wasn't doing anything about it.
Meanwhile there wasn't a lot of stuff about AIDS coming out if the GDR so they all said that the GDR was suppressing homosexuals when in reality they just had a better public health system and not as many people were getting AIDS there.
Basically the "Chyna is lying about their Covid numbers because they love killing people" shit we have today.
