I think platonic love between men is too often overlooked and unconsidered these days, more often dismissed for a assumed hidden erotic love instead. Attention between men shouldn't only ever be viewed sexual. That's how we get grown adults that can hardly bear to touch each other if it's not some overly aggressive handshake or other"macho" bs.
That said, these two were definitely fuckin'.
A stirring example of the kinds of proletarian solidarity impossible in a capitalist society, nothing more

The Monument to the Sailors of the Dnieper Flotilla, erected 1979, Kyiv, Ukraine, then-the-Ukrainian SSR

Sometimes they would both work on the collective's most remote fields all night long, and we wouldn't see them until morning, utterly exhausted and soaked with sweat! What good, hard-working Soviet boys they were!
They worked so much together they didn't even have time to find good, sturdy wives! What a noble sacrifice!
