I take your words to mean that I should be grateful that the soviets only replaced 20% of the population in my country, because the germans were planning to replace 50% (according to Generalplan Ost). To some, it may be an interesting philosophical debate whether evil can be measured in population replacement percentages, or whether we should try to measure evil like this at all. Believe me that what you're saying is nothing new to me (or to any Estonian who has ever discussed this subject with any non-Estonian). It's a debate I have heard hundreds of times throughout my life, and it's not one I wish to participate in again right now.
By the way, what you're saying is also a very common Kremlin talking point when it comes to the soviet occupation of my country - trying to direct the conversation to how horrible to Nazis would have been, so "surely the actions of the Soviets were justified in that context".
