Russia’s forthcoming presidential election has at least one anti-gay player: “Young homophobic communist Pavel Tarasov, who 18 months ago infamously said that a “good faggot is a dead faggot”, has surfaced as a staffer for Communist presidential candidate Gennady Zyuganov.” [UK Gay News]

comrade ryan
this is sad news, at the communist party of canada we stand up for LGBT rights. I find it hard to believe any communist would say that (good fag is dead fag) very dissapointing
scott ny'er
why is it hard to believe that any communist would say that?
hate and intolerance does not discriminate. It is could be found anywhere just like love, no?

@1 Comrade Ryan:
Are you unaware of your comrades’ shameful history regarding homosexuality? Like how Stalin made it a crime in the USSR, which was not repealed until right before the break-up? Or how Harry Hay was kicked out of the party as a “security risk”? And the Cuban gays that Fidel Castro shoved into prison (like the late Renaldo Arenas)? And even now the anti-gay policies of Hugo Chavez?
If they believed in God, they’d be right up there with Pat Robertson.
