Yep. Word about the CHEKA’s mass executions, not only of Czarists, but first on the list were other Socialist revolutionary elements, was carried to the West on a tide of refugees. People forget that Hitler learned about the effectiveness of concentration camps and death labor from Stalin’s gulags.
