The soviet union does not exist today. The soviet union’s treatment of homosexuals was far more leniant than western countries in general, which coincides with being enormously socially progressive when it comes to ethnicity and gender as well. Nobody is arguing that the soviet union of the 1930s was progressive when it comes to the LGBTQIA+ community if compared to the US today, but such a comparison is ludicrous to begin with.
It’s worth noting that the USSR ended the Gulag system in the 1960s while capitalist countries lile the united states continue to use prison as a means for cheap (practically unpaid) forced labor.
You mean prison. Work camp is nonsense used to demonise non western countries as barbaric (and often used in an attempt to evoke images of the nazi extermination machine even when they are not at all the same). Also what was progressive in the 40s 50s and 60s would be regressive by today’s standard yet that doesn’t mean it wasn’t progressive for the time.
And progressive for it’s time doesn’t mean the only progressive or the only one doing any progress. Please adjust the lens to the center for more accurate viewing.
The USSR was more progressive than the west at the time, that doesn’t mean the west wasn’t progressive at all or the the USSR was the only one? Are you sure you can read?
Soviet prisons were generally more progressive than western prisons, especially considering western countries were largely colonial powers (and are now neocolonial powers). Soviets even viewed handcuffs as barbaric and paid prisoners wages comparable to outside wages, the compulsion for work was out of a belief that work itself is good. They didn’t treat prison labor the same way the US does today, for pennies a day.
Oh shit, nice homophobia. Mask off for you? Either way, yes, the soviet prisons were progressive compared to western peers, especially considering they weren’t committing genocide around the world like the west was. Read Russian Justice.

Work camps are not progressive.
