Good thing the Bolsheviks never did anything wrong during their rule, like genociding Poles, committing mass murder in the Baltics, ethnically cleansing Crimean Tatars, brutally crushing workers' protests and stripping them of more rights than even bourgeois capitalist democracies did, running a system of high-mortality slave labor, etc etc etc etc etc.

My whole extended family on grandfather's side was killed for being jewish. My great grandfather was executed for the sin of not being executed during Holocaust.
You, personally, are trying to whitewash pretty atrocious evils, best case scenario because you're a stupid kid who don't have enough empathy.
