If nearly every communist leader has been anti LGBT maybe they were all just bad leaders which makes it seems largely inherent to its ideology.

Nearly every capitalist leader has been anti-LGBT. This is silly.

Considering every "communist" nation is actually authoritarian I don't think communism is inherently homophobic. Also every one of those leaders are bad, they run authoritarian countries.

Again, correlation doesn't equal causation. If every fascist leader had been left-handed, that wouldn't make left-handedness inherent to fascism.

Communism is about radical equality. That many leaders have been anti-LGBTQ+ hypocrites doesn't make it part of the ideology.
