The rhetorical minimization of anti-communist persecution, either by mocking its severity, reducing it to a historical curiosity, or treating its contemporary legacy as a joke. It dismisses the lasting trauma of blacklists, ruined lives, and state violence as "ancient history," "political correctness," or the over-sensitive whining of "tankies" and losers, thereby preventing serious moral reckoning.
