From signing a treaty with the Nazis so they could both violently invade their neighbors to barely winning only because of massive lend-lease support from the US, WWII really showcased the Kremlin’s ability to be awful.
I think the cherry on top was how they destroyed and buried equipment they got from the US instead of returning it… but maybe it was the decades of murder and brutal occupation in USSR states.

My vote is for the ethnic cleansing after WW2, personally.
