commies killed 10 TIMES the people the NAZI’s did. I think 4X is probably closer than 10X, though it's tough to say exactly. From Quora:

If you count all premature excess deaths that occurred due to the war Hitler started and the atrocities committed during that war, the answer is about 42 million deaths of World War II in Europe (14 million soldiers and 28 million civilians), see Twentieth Century Atlas - Death Tolls.)

American historian Timothy Snyder credits Hitler with 11 million non-combatants deliberately killed plus another one million foreseeable deaths from deportation, hunger, and sentences in concentration camps, see Hitler vs. Stalin: Who Was Worse?

The editor of the ultimate reference on Communist attrocities "The Black Book of Communism" weighs in like this:

Courtois considers Communism and Nazism to be distinct but comparable totalitarian systems. He says that Communist regimes have killed "approximately 100 million people in contrast to the approximately 25 million victims of the Nazis".[4]:15 Courtois claims that Nazi Germany's methods of mass extermination were adopted from Soviet methods. As an example, he cites the Nazi SS official Rudolf Höss who organized the infamous extermination camp, Auschwitz concentration camp. According to Höss,[4]:15
