The GDR had good rights between 1985-1992 and really only on paper.
The fact is in most socialist nations LGBT rights lagged behind Western capitalist nations.
Could you back that up? They straight up had state sponsored gay bars and massive anti-homophobia programs
Fir whatever reason either Lemmy as a whole or my computer cannot link back to context right now. Im presuming this was about GDR not Cuba. The reforms that created the gay bars were made in 1985. GDR's LGBT+ rights progress more or less mimicked the West apart from not actively criminally prosecuting homosexuals for homosexuality a bit earlier.
