There is a dead post on this page which contains a hope for a time that being a communist is seen in the same light as being a national socialist. The post is from a 'green' account - either a temp account or a troll - and has been flagged to death.

I consider communism to be on the same level as national socialism and I do want schools - which, at least where I live (Sweden) do spend a lot of time in learning out the evils of national socialism and fascism - to teach children that these ideologies are to be seen in the same light, that the death count for communist regimes is even higher than that for national socialist and fascist regimes and point out that in the end there are more similarities than differences between these three. The hammer and sickle, swastika and fascine-bound axe should be treated similarly, as symbols for authoritarian ideologies instead of fashion statements.
