> They definitely understood it, and they also understood that the USSR had 45,000 nuclear weapons pointed at your backyard.

And USSR understood that immediately after WWII end, USA planned to finish what Nazis started. Using also nuclear bombs which USSR didn't have at the time.

Communists in USSR killed about 10x more innocents than Nazi. (Did you heard about Holodomor?). Why Nazi bad but USSR isn't?

If you count Holodomor as communism victims, you should also count all the people who died of poverty in the West as capitalism victims.

Famine ≠ killing by starving to death. USSR had massive famines before and after Holodomor.
