I'm having a hard time distinguishing who is worse now. We were taught the Nazis bad but never why the Commies are bad. I'm an adult and I'm only just discovering how bad the commies were. Like a fat as I know the Nazis did bad things - or so were told. But I heard an interesting theory that Soviets used the dead bodies of the holomodor to stage the Jewish extermination before the rest of the allies got to see the concentration camps. Thoughts???

It has taken me a long time to realize this, but in the end both are the.same. The ideologies are a justification to strip the individual of their rights in service of a "greater" good (party, race,etc). This "greater"good is of course an amalgam fiction created and maintained by the state propaganda machine. In terms of mechanics also both are the same- a small group of Oligarchs presides over the rule and resources of the state, imposing their whims on the average person.
