Dead wrong. Nazism was in a sense an aberration in German identity and history. That's why it has been possible to repudiate it - it does not go to the roots of "Germanity". Stalinism, OTOH, was not an aberration but an adequate and direct manifestation of a pretty long and sordid historical identity. That's why there are such difficulties with its repudiation.

You say 'dead wrong' but I don't see how anything you said contradicts the article. Just because there are deep reasons for 'Gulag denial' does not make it less of a danger.

Fascinates me the number of Jews who celebrate Communism.
They have, however, been trained to despise almost anything German in spite of the Jews in the Nazi hierarchy.
