    Not gonna argue with that. USSR was definitely more covert in its ethnic cleansings. Although the Russian polizei collaborators in Eastern Europe (Belarus to be exact) were more than eager to hand in my grandad’s family to the SS. It was actually thanks to an SS officer showing some compassion that he and he his sister managed to evacuate. And some argue that up to 5 million Jews went through Soviet gulags although it’s near impossible to verify. My main point being is that the nazi Germany system was destroyed and punished (and reformed by external forces) and now Germany (along with Japan) is one of the most pacifist countries in the world, but the Soviet never was and that’s why we’re here with the likes of Poo-boy with his human waves and casual daily war crimes.

      That’s horrifying. Thanks for educating me. I am glad your grandfather and his sister made it.
