I’ve seen too much of this. No, the nazis and the Soviets were not equivalent.
Do. Better.
I think it got removed because of the context it was posted in. Like asking this question when the topic is the double genocide theory just reads like equivocating between the Nazis and the USSR. Good faith criticism of the USSR is allowed here. But in the context of this thread? Bad look.
it wasn’t really good-faith criticism anyway, he just called the Soviets “abhorrent” without elaboration
Eh, I’ll always lean towards giving someone who’s totally new to the community a chance to learn and grow before assuming they’re coming in bad faith. There’s a lot of propaganda out there. I used to think the USSR was “abhorrent” too. Most westerners do. We all start somewhere. I’d have given the new poster a chance to learn before assuming bad faith.
