"Victims of Communism" refers to the individuals and groups who suffered under various communist regimes throughout the 20th century. This includes those who faced persecution, imprisonment, or execution due to their political beliefs, ethnicity, or opposition to the state. Notable examples include the millions who died during the Great Leap Forward in China and the Gulag system in the Soviet Union. The term is often used in discussions about the impact of communism on society and human rights. Organizations like the Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation aim to educate the public about these historical events and honor the memory of those who suffered under oppressive regimes.
