Здравствуйте товарищи! - Greetings comrades! And welcome to a new Hearts of Iron 4 Dev Diary! I hope that you are all having a great summer, and that you are prepared for a little reading, because...
I mean, some was paranoia and people getting caught in the witchhunt (Stalin, Beria, and Yezhov all admitted this in private correspondence), some was actual treason, quite a bit was German intelligence having completely hacked the NKVD.
Libs think that a Socialist revolution in a country dominated by the Russian Orthodox Church and literal monarchists running Pogroms for Jewish people wouldn't have a massive and ongoing counter-revolution for decades.
Liberals unironically think that the Whites and the Nazis phased out of existence after their armies scattered. No object permanence.
The purges were largely nonsensical and based on farce so I don't see many other ways they could've handled it

No, that's anti-Communist garbage. Read Origins of the Great Purges.

The original hoi4 made the purges necessary to avoid civil war.
