from what i am reading, these are polish military officer's bodies. poland's military was known for pogroms against jews during the nazi occupation, and that was a sentence of death in the soviet union. as for the other claims, many civilian populations, including many millions of russians, were moved beyond the urals in order to evade firebombing campaigns. some of these groups stayed, but many left after the war.
sexual crimes happen in war and people who commit them should be killed.
Oh so it's fine that the Soviet Union displaced their government and murdered anyone who opposed them?
it is fine to save hundreds of thousands of lives from firebombing, yes. war is never pretty and you must protect civilians by moving them away from the ever-advancing front line.

What black book of communism are you talking about? I linked you a wikipedia article. These are real historical events that you're willfully ignoring.
Werth, Nicholas (1999). "A State against Its People: Violence, Repression, and Terror in the Soviet Union". In Courtois, Stéphane (ed.). The Black Book of Communism: Crimes, Terror, Repression. Translated by Mark Kraemer; Jonathan Murphy (illustrated hardcover ed.). Cambridge, Massachusetts: Harvard University Press. p. 164. ISBN 9780674076082. Retrieved 2 December 2021 – via Google Books.
There are dozens of sources listed on the bottom, one possibly questionable source means the entire thing is made up?
A lot of sources are for more general historic claims and some that aren't are likely a circular citation. In any case, if you want to pretend to be a communist, it's basic decency to not throw a list of accusations at someone that includes obvious anticommunist bullshit like the Black Book.
Anarchists uncritically quoting wikipedia -- which is infamous for its anticommunist historical revisionism -- is a funny bit
