Yangjae Forest  Is where you must go!

I think wearing the uniforms/symbols of evil regimes for the purpose of historic reenactment and doing the same as some kind of fashion statement are significantly different. 

Like, a full-lipped, hour-glass Korean gal, with the proper nourishment(s), dressing up as Natasha Romanov (from Iron Man 2)?

OK...that would work.  I'm sold.

Well, that would depend.
Is this a historic reenactment of Natasha Romanov, or just a fashion copy-cat?   

...from Iron Man 2, very important.

This was Japan a while back.

I've seen people wear the hammer and sickle on shirts, symbols of a far more evil and destructive regime and ideology than the Nazis and Nazism. No one seemed to care.

Indeed...they are called Democrats.

i dont like commies either but can we cut it out with this bizarre delusion that they were somehow worse than nazis, lol

Ideologically? No.
In practice? That's an awfully large body count in the USSR, China, North Korea, Cambodia, Angola, and Romania.

Are the Nazis worse because they had a worse ideology but killed fewer and for different reasons? Are the Communists less worse because some of those far greater number of deaths were deaths caused by their incompetent authoritarian land reforms?

yes and yes. there's a world of difference between deliberate evil and destructive incompetence, regardless of the body count. you could argue that communism has been more destructive, but when you talk about who was "worse" people generally think of it in terms of morality.

its also worth considering that the nazis (thankfully) didn't have the chance to implement their agenda on the scale they wanted. of course this is all theory but i would guess that if all the regimes that are currently communist followed nazism instead they'd be worse than what they are now

Interestingly, one could make the case that Mercantilism was one of the worst, given the depopulation of the Americas and Oceania as well as the long-term consequences of colonialism.

And while SOME of what Communism did was destructive incompetence, a lot was deliberate purges and "reforms" where depraved indifference at a minimum involved and quite possibly what we would consider by the standards of criminal codes to be murder as in they knew what they would do would cause the death of people, had ample time to consider their actions, and proceeded anyway.

There also was an ethnic component to some extent to some of the Communist death tolls as well. In many cases some of the most extreme/risky reforms were undertaken in areas of ethnic minority control.

All that being said, I do think that in the end, the case that Nazism was worse is pretty solid. Now if we talk non-Nazi fascism vs. Communism/Marixst-Leninism/Maoism...that isn't such a clear-cut thing.  Were Mussolini's Italy and Franco's Spain dramatically worse than Stalin or Mao or Pol Pot? I'm not sure you can really make that case.

yikes guys. 

in adding to the usual talk of nazis and communism... (cant you guys just have a private message chat).
