The elephant in the room is the Jewish population.
They're very conflicted about Russian and Chinese Communism because, well, it's Communism and the Jews have a deep and abiding fascination with it. Young Jews are expected to spend time at a commune as part of their coming-of-age rituals.
They perpetuate a vast amount of this outsized Nazi-hate and keep it ever-current out of frustration because they were never able to control it and because they suffered under its regime. They couldn't control Nazism because it's nationalist and exclusive, as opposed to Communism, which is internationalist, multiculti and inclusive.
Indeed, the German Communists, known as the Spartacus League, was headed by a Jewish woman named Rosa Luxemburg, and was the dominant radical-left ideology of pre-WWI Germany. She was responsible for safeguarding Lenin while he was in exile in Germany.
It was she who sent him in a sealed train car to St. Petersburg in 1917 to start the Bolshevik Revolution. After the war, Hitler toyed with Communism before deciding it was too Russia-oriented to be of help in reviving the nearly moribund Weimar Germany. Once he discovered Mussolini's new Fascist movement, he crushed the Communist party in Germany.
With regard to the issue of control, they figured heavily in the Russian Communist movement and formed a major part of the Cheka and NKVD secret police apparatus in the early years of the Soviet Union. In that sinecure, they carried out their political policing with ruthless doctrinare efficiency. In the late '30s, they were liquidated from Soviet Communism by Stalin, which made them an enemy of "Russia, Russia, Russia", which they continue to bear even now.
And that's why today's Communist sympathizers are so enamored with Maoism: it's because the Jews never played a part in Chinese Communism, nor have they been persecuted after running afoul of it.
