What about Operation Osoaviakhim?
last I checked Soviets didn't proceed to put them into highest levels of government
Indeed, but even hiring and giving citizenship for such people (nazi scientists, military and engineers), especially considering how they got their "knowledge" isn't an "ok" thing. Neither for US's Paperclip.
People can be reeducated and rehabilitated, I have no issue with USSR doing that. What I have a problem with is keeping the ideology alive which is what the US intentionally and methodically did after the war https://www.counterpunch.org/2020/10/16/the-u-s-did-not-defeat-fascism-in-wwii-it-discretely-internationalized-it/
Reeducation won't revive nazi victims. USSR and US were no necromancers.
Everybody who was actively involved in committing war crimes was prosecuted in harshest terms possible by USSR. This has been extensively documented, so not sure what you're going on about here.
Weren't the nazi scientists in the USSR essentially slaves though?
Both US and USSR secretly hired nazi personnel, such as scientists and engineers. Later, both operations were disclosed respectively as Operation Paperclip and Operation Osoaviakhim. USSR didn't destroy nazi-fascism, they secretly incorporated it (that is, if I correctly understood the reference from the meme, maybe I'm needlessly "ranting").
