Some comrades over at Hexbear have organized a donation drive for Palestine and, over the past few weeks, have managed to raise over $1500 for verified Palestinian fundraisers. The fediverse is a good place full of good people.

    I don’t want to step in either

      Well, for one, in eg. East Germany, homosexuality was decriminalised before in the West.

      In fascist Italy and Germany, you were sent to a concentration camp.

          There were no concentration camps in the Eastern Block, though, the word you’re looking for is “prison”, which exists in all societies (mostly in the US though).

          As for criticising the state, you couldn’t publicly criticise the party leader or the communist model in public without getting in trouble (no jail for just talking though), but as they say “in communism you couldn’t criticise one person (the party leader), in capitalism you can’t criticise your boss or your company”.
