It's very different. The Soviet Union wasn't flooding itself with illegals and immigrants no one asked for. It wasn't criminalizing people for criticizing them. It criminalized homosexuality instead of jailing people for saying that men aren't women.
It certainly DID criminalize people for critiquing them. And they flooded the other republics with ethnic Russians in order to break them, colonial style. And while they outlawed homosexuality, they looked the other way to pedos.

Same actions; different players.
Pretty sure immigration problems were bad even in the ussr.
