I’m so glad they made a video on this, I wonder if they’ll mention the things I read in my “Homosexuality is Revolutionary Russia” book. I’ll have to update once I’m done watching.

Update: yes, they did! Dan Healey’s stuff was cited a lot so that’s cool.

Edit for pronouns.

Hit like this YouTuber. The only other USSR fan I can think of on YouTube is Hakim.
