Given all we know about the USSR, I don't think anyone needs to explain why. This plus your other comment suggest you're replying in bad faith.

  Nope. I just evidently know people with more varied opinions on the USSR than you do. (Including people who grew up there.)

    Indeed, that accusation of bad faith is such blatant projection ... essentially "It's bad faith to disagree with me, and there's no need for me to justify my claims." This whole diversion is off topic and can be seen as a form of bad faith.

      I’m not even disagreeing, I’m saying that there are different (and somewhat opposed) ways in which someone could find an image offensive, so it’s worthwhile to provide further context.

        Yes, I know you aren't, but they are taking it that way.

    Opinions... There are people with varied opinions on Nazi Germany. That doesn't mean squat. The USSR eradicated everyone with a deviating opinion about the regime. They perished in the dungeons of the KGB and in the Gulags. What remained were opportunists and followers. Opinions!

  It ain’t what you don’t know that gets you into trouble. It’s what you know for sure that just ain’t so.
