I would not take very seriously what immigrants, especially from Eastern
Europe say about persecution in their old countries - they tend to
exaggerate profusely (and for a good reason, since they are rewarded for
doing that). Moreover Eastern European immigrants tend to be fanatically
anti-Soviet and anti-communist, they often espouse the most reactionary
causes in the US as a means of symbolic revenege against "communism." This
is not speculation, I am talking from experience.

Right on, Wojtek.
