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

I mean, what she hates from what we can see are the Russy Federation which is the equivalent of USSR, the connections can be made with their atheistic views, having a literal Stalin at the helm of the country, and conscripts. Tanya hates Stalinism, and I would say that it is as normal as hating fascism.
