Communism vs Nazism

Communism and Nazism are two different political ideologies. They oppose each other and one can come across numerous differences between the two. Some people now a days do not see much difference between the two. But this not true and the two are distinct in all aspects. The communists have a different thinking of politics and economy than the Nazis.

Communism is a socio economic ideology that aims at a classless, egalitarian, and a stateless society. The ideology is based on a common ownership and it is the community that controls the resources or the means of production. Nazism or National Socialism is a totalitarian ideology that was practised by the Nazi Party or the National Socialist German Workers’ Party.

Nazism became so popular under Adolf Hitler. Communist ideology can be attributed to Karl Marx and Fredrick Engels.

Communism stands for a free society where all are equal and every one can participate in the decision making process. It stands for a class less society and has no barriers of any religion, caste or state. A fascist political system, Nazism stands for socialist policies but also ensures that a wealthy class stays at the helm of power.

While Nazism believes in extreme nationalism, ethnic divisions and a firm government, communism does not have such prepositions and it focuses on equality. While communism is focussed on a classless society, Nazism is focussed on a racist society. In German Nazis considered Aryan race to be superior to all others.

While Communism is on the far left, Nazism is considered to be far right. Communism can be said to be having foundations in some strong political ideology. On the other hand, Nazism is not based on any strong political ideology but only based on racial divide.
