I just saw a text saying something along the lines: "concentrations camps, as seen by the soviets and germans" and it shook me. Even natopedia does not list the soviet union as users of concentration camps. Is there any good ressource to refute such a stupid claim?

Losurdo's book on Stalin talks about the near universal use of concentration camps by allies and axis imperial powers before, during and after ww2.

Very cool! Thank you. I just found that exact book recommended by others as well. I'll have a look.
