The problem with your point here is that it completely ignores the all-important differences between the philosophical underpinnings of the Bolshevik Revolution and Nazism. The former stood against all men who posed a threat to the welfare of the proletariat. The Jewish Trotskyites, many of whom were undoubtedly influenced by earlier pogroms against Jews, were used by the architects of the then emerging state for this end. Nazism is much more sinister. It declared certain humans inhuman by nature and worthy of death. It then set about the wholesale slaughter of those humans to usher in an age of the Master Race. What makes Nazism so much more sinister than Bolshevism is that its arbitrariness can be turned against any group in possession of any natural attribute. No one is safe under Nazism. Under Bolshevism, one at least had something of a choice to champion the proletariat, perchance to live.
