One name of a Nazi collaborator was found there. It's absolutely ridiculous to leap from that to "this is a monument honoring Nazis."
Millions of people were killed by Stalin. It's little wonder that a few objectionable names might be scattered among them.
Victims of Communism memorial faces call to remove over 330 names linked to Nazis, fascists out of 550! MOST OF THEM.
This has been known for a long time. Back in 2021 Victims of communism memorial received donations honouring fascists, Nazi collaborators, according to website
Ok, but was Stalin a communist? Because the USSR sure as hell didn't seem like a classless, stateless society
At least one of them was killed for collaborating with nazis. Why did Stalin kill the rest of them?
Cause Stalin was an autocratic douchebag who used people for his own power games?
Doesn't really have a whole lot to do with communism, though.
The CIA's internal reports acknowledge that perception, while popular in the west, is not accurate.
Citing the CIA as a source is fucking hilarious but no amount of explaining would help you understand why.
So there was more than one autocrat in charge? Like... some sort of... oligarchy or something?
You need more than a dozen or so "leaders" for communism... or, to be accurate, you need none.
Those leaders were all elected, as were all but the lowest level of the communist party. Nearly every communist party is structured this way.
