Can we admit it's a little funny that the same group of people who spent the last decade crying about Nazis and genocide are now cheering for the extermination of Jews?
Yes, and the Holocaust story also basically came from them. It was a very blatant attempt to blame any remaining German people. So essentially that's a piece of Soviet propaganda, first, that then the US latches onto.
Considering some of the stuff the Red Army got up to on their way to Berlin, I wouldn't blame them for screaming about a story way more horrible to keep the eyes off them.

Didn't the Soviets cry a lot about Nazis and then have their own pogroms against the Jew?
Russians got pogrom’d by the Jews first.
True. But then it was a Bolshevik government expelling lesser jews.
To be fair, the Soviets had reasons to hate Nazis beyond simply pro-Jew.
