Yes there is actually. Every single one of the countries you mentioned --Germany, Poland and france-- have laws against denying genocide in general - that includes communist crimes. So by your logic then, because denying stalin's crimes is too illegal, that's proof enough that they never happened? Has any historian been JAILED for revising Stalin or Mao history?    Germany and many countries around the world have very specific laws FORBIDDING Nazi imagery, symbols, artifacts, etc... Have you ever heard about a country forbidding communist imagery? No, you're free to wave a Soviet flag or have the faces of Stalin and Mao (the world's biggest mass murderers) represented in any media you want.    I've seen video games that let you play with Stalin and Mao and wave the appropriate flag but when it comes to Hitler and the Nazi flag is FORBIDDEN, they simply IGNORE history, because of those laws.    You can go around freely claiming that you sympathize with communism, wearing a red t-shirt with Che Guevara's face on it but, if you somehow imply that you agree with something even vaguely related to Nazism, hell gets loose!!    Aren't these scenarios in the PC list of double standards??
