    “Yes, the USSR performed atrocities, but the fact that the west has as well excuses that.”

    It’s not like those are the only two instances of human rights violations by the USSR, and they’re infamous for lying about numbers.

    Misery is not s competition. You don’t have to pick sides. There can be more than one violent authoritarian regime in the world, they can all be bad, and you can oppose all of them. There’s really no reason to defend any imperial powers.

      Deeply unserious and reactionary reply. Accomplished with signature feigned stupidity to fully sidestep the point being made.
