That would be stupid. Who says that?

World was fucked back then. Western world was still forcibly castrating gay men and only in the past 20 years started to even allow gay marriage.

Cuba has made huge strides on this. The GDR (East Germany) was making big changes on this in the late 80's. I'm sure if the USSR survived it would have too but who knows.
