    Why is it that whenever someone says “Nazis are bad” there are always weirdos crawling out of the woodwork to say “what about communism?”?

    It’s like clockwork.

      Because Communism overall killed more people than Nazism. The hypocrisy of banning nazi symbols while allowing soviet ones is just unbearable.

        You are just going to have to live with the fact that you’re the weirdo on this. People do not see Nazism and communism as similar or comparable. Nazism has discrimination and extermination of the “other” as core tenets of the ideology, communism is an economic model that simply does not have those elements no matter how desperate you are to assign them to it.

        Authoritarianism is bad. But communism is not authoritarian. Governments calling themselves communist have become authoritarian and committed atrocities. But as much as weirdos like yourself like to deny it, governments capable of genocide are also capable of lying about being communist.

          Weird how he just… disappeared instead of admitting you may have a point. How long until he makes the same argument in another thread?
