I removed The following text , until reliable sources:

Khrushchev's anger was fueled further when he was informed about a recent KGB takedown on a clandestine group of homosexual intellectuals, who worked for the Iskusstvo Publishing House.^{[citation needed]}

It looks plausible, but needs a solid reference, an educated opinion about what was going on in Khrushcev's head. An indication that it was so is words of Ernst Neizvestny (from Никита Хрущев, отец русского авангарда): Khrushchev asks Ernst: "are you a fag? Ernst says "no, just give me a girl and I will show you". It looks like Khrushcev likes this answer. --Altenmann >talk 17:54, 5 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
