Last I’ve heard, there were some issues, but things were getting better. Now I have stumbled upon this headline and wish to know more details about the situation.

This comment is particularly hilariously wrong when you remember how much capitalist countries (including western ones!) tried to squash LGBT people (and still tries to, see the US states outlawing trans people)

Ffs it was a crime to be gay in most capitalist countries until the 2000s, and in most places even something like marriage still isn't legal
