That is edgy. Stalin virulently rebuked war crimes against Nazi Germany's civilians and POWs as it pushed them back.

By contrast, the brutality, starvation, and high death rates for nazi POWs held by the US in western europe during and after ww2 is not a story most ppl know about. Losurdo gets into this a bit, as well as contrasts the nazi's position that the slavic ppl must be eradicated and made into slaves, while the USSR's position was that germany and the german ppl will go on after the war, and efforts should be made to not follow the nazi's scorched earth policy.
