I used that link not from a Reddit thread, I just know the graph and the easiest way for me to find it was to google-image-search it, and it's the first link that I could copy-paste, since it's more productive imo to link a graph than an entire study, since it's a comment section and not a scientific article.

So basically, your whole argument is, "the graph is kinda sus and I don't trust the source, probably russian propaganda, I hate Russia and I hate Nazis". Not the strongest rebuttal in my opinion.

Regardless. Notice how your phrase isn't "I hate Nazis and I hate the USSR and I hate the modern Russian government". You can make the distinction between Germany and Nazis, but you can't make the distinction between the Russian governments at different times and the nation as a whole. This proves further my point that your hatred is more Russophobia than actual historical criticism of the actions of governments.

Suddenly you only go as far back as WW2, not to the German-occupied regions of Poland before and during WW1. We forget about those because they weren't Russian, don't we? Those pesky friendly Germans in western Poland, who cares, nothing happened before Nazism, the important thing are the evil Russians. But of course we remember the Poland under the Russian Empire! Because that actually aligns with the contemporary Polish foundational myth!

Never mind that the Bolsheviks granted Poland the legal right to secede in 1917 immediately after the October revolution, and Poland used that power to immediately proceed to invade the similarly recently independent Ukraine and even some soviet lands because of nationalist conceptions of historical borders. It's somehow all the fault of Russians after all, isn't it? Much better to forbid communist parties in Poland while you have literal Nazis in parliament using fire extinguishers against Jewish symbols!
