I see you're lucky enough not to be familiar with the Victims of Communism Foundation. This is pretty standard for them.

They're also extremely successfully at mainstreaming these kind of views: they're often cited by "respectable" western media like BBC, are used by Wikipedia, and are the original and only source for a lot of the kind of scandalous accusations against China that liberals will call you a tankie if you don't believe
