Most people in Eastern Europe think about the Soviet occupation as one of the greatest tragedies of modern history. I don't know which world you live in where they weren't an oppressive power.

They came raping and pillaging, they took people away in trains never to be seen again, and they ravaged our countries in more ways than one.

And to be honest, Russia is currently doing more than its share of power projection and destabilization in Africa and the Middle East.

That is great, you can try to run as a communist in any of those countries, see where that gets you. It's allowed, Hungary even has a communist party on the ballot.
