    Sorry your relatives were fascists. My great grandfather got murdered by the reds in Spain and I don’t cry anticommunism on the internet because he probably deserved it. I only feel bad about having fascist ancestors.

      Are you under the assumption that only fascists were persecuted under communist dictatorships, or are you just being mean?

        Not only but majorly, especially outside the USSR, which took the brunt of the excessive repressions in the period between 1939 and 1942.

          Well I guess being well informed on a topic is not strictly required to form an identity around it on the internet. Being ignorant sure seems to help with the confidence tho.
