    You see present day Russians commiting systemic war crimes led by a man wanted for crimes against humanity and doubt that the USSR is an egregious perpetrator of war crimes.

    Insomuch as Russian warcrimes in Ukraine are even a thing (extant, but heavily exaggerated, and not out of line with other similar wars), the Stalin lead USSR and Putin lead Russia are completly different regimes. This statement is essentially racist because it implies that Russians are inherently inclined towards rape or something, because otherwise the Putin regime and the Stalin led USSR have nothing in common politically.

    See the holodomor.

    Did you think they only did mass execution

    Executing Nazi POWs is not a bad thing. They were Nazis. The USSR actually held back on this as well.

    starved children

    There was no intentional starvation of anyone in the USSR.

      Also naming the Soviet famine is literally stolen valor by Nazis. Using it as justification for lebensraum

      The name Holodomor was chosen because it sounds like Holocaust. i.e the Holocaust of the would-be Aryan race lmao.

      Very funny that they mention starving children considering peasant landlords were doing exactly that in direct defiance of the redistributive agenda of the Soviet state.

      They want to feed little children during the famine? They should thank Stalin and the peasant armies for holding the Kulaks at gunpoint to give it to them.

      Kulaks would have loved to starve them out, poor people and their children were useless eaters in their eyes.
