It’s typically just lightswitch brained to say one side had the right. But in the case of Germany vs Russia, they absolutely had a special case to be ruthless vs typical warfare. The Soviets had a specific program of building partisans committing terrorism and atrocities in the Germans rear everywhere they went. This is not something the Soviets experienced, and is proof the vast majority of any German brutality on “civilians” was actually legitimate response to soviet warfare on soviet forces.
