If anything, the example of Poland offers the fiercest refutation of the tiresome ‘commies = nozzies’ meme. The German Reich treated Poles like neoslaves, regularly committed massive reprisals against them as punishments, denied them any advanced education, used them to supply child labour, deliberately underfed or starved them, and expected most (if not all) of them to become extinct by the 1960s or earlier. If the Axis did indeed shoot German men for raping Poles, it must have been done selectively. Millions of Poles died as a result of the Axis occupation. All of this is supported by a lot more than anecdotal or circumstantial evidence.
