Communists having killed of 100 to 140 million people is sufficient reason to hunt them down.

But unfortunately there are still plenty of useful idiots, the same kind that propped up Mao, Pol Pot and Stalin.

We kill people all the time, what's the difference? Isn't it a sovereign nation's prerogative to do whatever they want? That said, it is our prerogative to be nosy and violently mess with other people's affairs too so..

I would read that meta study. Especially if they verify and compare methods.
