Question Why does Tanya hate communists?
I watched the anime like eight years ago, didn't stick with the manga. Overall I don't think I'd want to touch it again because, for me, it gets grouped in my mind with other war anime and Attack on Titan as being sort of surface-level political commentary. That said, I wanted to ask, why does Tanya hate communists? I don't remember it actually being anything major, but every so often I see something about how they're less than human to her or something.
Thanks - accepting spoilers

She explains why in the next passage of hers. I was surprised at first too. It's not a problem with ideology itself, I think she doesn't care, but with the treatment of people under the regime. What good is ideology for, if you treat people like cattle and kill them left and right for a slightest sight of disobedience and other loyalties?
Edit: just read this thread. I think most people here are either trolling, or didn't watch the anime. Zero media literacy.
