If the people this monument honors are Nazis,

One name of a Nazi collaborator was found there. It's absolutely ridiculous to leap from that to "this is a monument honoring Nazis."

Millions of people were killed by Stalin. It's little wonder that a few objectionable names might be scattered among them.

    At least one of them was killed for collaborating with nazis. Why did Stalin kill the rest of them?

    Cause Stalin was an autocratic douchebag who used people for his own power games?

    Doesn't really have a whole lot to do with communism, though.

    So there was more than one autocrat in charge? Like... some sort of... oligarchy or something?

    You need more than a dozen or so "leaders" for communism... or, to be accurate, you need none.
