I've seen too much of this. No, the nazis and the Soviets were not equivalent.

Do. Better.

Criticising the USSR is ok, but trying to equivicate them to the nazis, explicitly or implicitly, is not. For example, saying "The Nazis and soviets were both abhorrent, just for different reasons", is entering Holocaust trivialisation territory, because it reads as implying they were comparable.
