Frivolous?

Stalin's campaign against various subjugated nations (Baltic, Crimean Tatars etc.) would fit right in, only it happened generation(s) later, in a supposed Paradise of Workers and Peasants.

Mass deportations, artificial famine, mass executions, torture.



Don't you think Moldovans are doing much better that Native Americans in the US?

You need to see the breakdown of Stalin's victims by ethnicity and see how many Russians there are.

"artificial famine"

For example:

"It has been estimated that between 3.3 and 3.9 million died in Ukraine, between 2 and 3 million died in Russia, and 1.5–2 million (1.3 million of whom were ethnic Kazakhs) died in Kazakhstan." [0]
