Even if you can believe those estimates (I think it's more like 20-25 million) Lenin and Stalin didn't run the worlds only communist government. Estimates of total mass killings by ALL Communist regimes range as high as 160 million. If you want to accurately compare the relative dangers of two murderous ideologies then you should compare them equally.

At some point though the degree of deadliness becomes academic. I see no real difference at all between 1 or 10 million victims. Both numbers are completely terrible to contemplate.
