Well, the Nazis barely had a chance. They were only in power for ten years in one country but they did manage to kill 50 million people. That seems to be better than any communist nation managed to do.Originally posted by herb slocomb:
My point is why is Nazism always the ultimate bogeyman and personification of evil when communists killed far more.

Nope. I didn't say that 827 995 is the *total* number of victims. I said that 6-8 million is considered the closest estimation.

Here in South Florida, we have Holocaust mueseums and memorials, and we have madated the public schools teach about the Holocasut. We also have many movies on the Holocaust and it never goes completely out of the public eye.
Where are the memorials, mueseums, and movies to commerate the millions who were murdered under communism??? Why the relative/comparative silence???
