As a political and economic system fascism would be a better comparison. And like socialism, can be a logical steppingstone to communism. Nazism’s racial theories, and particularly the transition to real world implementation are what sets it apart. And can Communist governments implement similar racial/economic/social policies of extermination, of course, they have. Though usually based on economic, political and social affiliations. Not sure I’d want to waste time distinguishing between their pursuit of evil. Religions can do it too.

Yes but messianic humanism and the creation of the new man carries its on ethno purity issues

Stripped of religion in particular and identity the new man only needs the state

The converse of Nazi racial purity due to the erasure of any identifier especially religion

Unless at war then commies suddenly got all motherland oriented

Like Nazis touted racial purity devoid of darkies Jews and potato negroes yet cozied up to sand people in the Middle East when it suited them not to mention their relationship with Orientals

I don't understand the point of your response. Karl and his parents converted when he was 5. They renounced and denounced Judaism. He ceased being a Jew. For the next 20 years, he was an active Lutheran, writing Christian apologetics in college. He was also a viscious antisemite.

In its perfected practice, Christian egoism of heavenly bliss is necessarily transformed into the corporal egoism of the Jew, heavenly need is turned into world need, subjectivism into self-interest. We explain the tenacity of the Jew not by his religion, but, on the contrary, by the human basis of his religion – practical need, egoism.

Since in civil society the real nature of the Jew has been universally realized and secularized, civil society could not convince the Jew of the unreality of his religious nature, which is indeed only the ideal aspect of practical need. Consequently, not only in the Pentateuch and the Talmud, but in present-day society we find the nature of the modern Jew, and not as an abstract nature but as one that is in the highest degree empirical, not merely as a narrowness of the Jew, but as the Jewish narrowness of society.

Once society has succeeded in abolishing the empirical essence of Judaism – huckstering and its preconditions – the Jew will have become impossible, because his consciousness no longer has an object, because the subjective basis of Judaism, practical need, has been humanized, and because the conflict between man’s individual-sensuous existence and his species-existence has been abolished.

The social emancipation of the Jew is the emancipation of society from Judaism.

That’s like asking if syphillus is worse than gonorrhea.

Well, syphillus is certainly worse.
