You could argue big government “conservatives” are more dangerous than Marxists, but it would be ridiculous to do so. The Marxists literally killed tens of millions of people in the 20th Century. Bush and other big government “conservatives” may not govern as you’d like, but it’s absurd to say they are more dangerous than Marxists.

A theocracy, to which SubGeniusX was referring can and most probably would be more dangerous than a Marxist regime. The world has wittnessed a number of them, perhaps they have just slipped your mind.
The Spanish Inquistion was one of those periods (cue Michael Palin). Much more relevant is the war in which we are currently engaged. The Taliban rule of Afghanistan was a theocracy. Iran, the formost sponsor of terrorism is a theocracy. The goal of the Global Islamic Jihadists is to create a theocracy.
Ergo, yes theocrats are as dangerous as Marxists. They have the same mindset as Marxists, and they value human life the same as Marxists.
