I'm not well versed in this part of history, but a quick Google search yielded Tito's Yugoslavia.

  I'm not knowledgeable about history of the Balkans, so I've actually googled. Tito is traditionally portrayed as a mild and benevolent dictator, because he had a split with Stalin and it was beneficial during the Cold War. However, looking a bit further reveals massacres between 1945 to 1947. The Wikipedia article about his secret police has "A List Of People Assasinated" by them... And since we are talking about cherry-picking, this is a problem I have with people claiming to be "on the left": this selective blindness to obvious horrendous crimes by the regime and abuse of power that these things lead to.
