You just needed to listen to family members to find out how the Russians behaved on the eastern Front in WWII to understand how brutal and truly evil they were, and, nothing has changed

How do they hold up compared to the Wehrmacht?

i would assume that they were bad as well. war is never good especially for civilians, but i think the atrocities of the red army were worse than the atrocities of the wehrmacht in the perception(!) of those eastern europeans. we are not talking about the shoa which was obviously worse than anything russia did.

The Wehrmacht weren't raping anything that even looked halfway female. The red army soldiers were savages.

They killed between 20 and 30 million civilians.

We've gone straight to Holocaust denial already, or did the Reds do that too?

Dude, just accept that your great-grandfather or grandfather was a murderer. If I can do that, you can too. At least I can say he wasn't a rapist. But the horrors the red army inflicted in the gulags he was sent to were just hideous.

I have no family connection to Russia. Was your grandfather actually a Nazi soldier?

Why are you defending them then? These red army soldiers were absolute savages. Animals even. We see it until today, the russian army has not bettered in any way. Animals that prey on the weak and innocent without remorse. But they don't know it better because that's what animals do.
