"Bagi saya, Stalinisme bahkan merupakan masalah filosofis yang lebih besar daripada Nazisme. Di bawah Nazisme, jika Anda seorang Yahudi, Anda hanya terbunuh, tidak ada pertanyaan, Anda tidak perlu membuktikan apa pun. Di bawah Stalinisme, tentu saja, sebagian besar [korban] diadili karena tuduhan palsu; kebanyakan dari mereka bukan pengkhianat. Ada satu ciri menarik: mereka disiksa atau melalui semacam pemerasan yang dipaksa mengaku sebagai pengkhianat."

--- Slavoj Žižek

Versi Bahasa Inggris

For me, Stalinism was even a greater philosophical problem than Nazism. Under Nazism, if you were a Jew, you were simply killed, no questions asked, you had nothing to prove. Under Stalinism, of course, most [victims] were on trial for false accusations; most of them were not traitors. There is one interesting feature: that they were tortured or through some kind of blackmail forced to confess to being traitors.
